Man peed way out of avalanche
A Slovak man trapped in his car under an avalanche
freed himself by drinking 60 bottles of beer and
urinating on the snow to melt it.
Rescue teams found Richard Kral drunk and staggering
along a mountain path four days after his Audi car was
buried in the Slovak Tatra mountains.
He told them that after the avalanche, he had opened
his car window and tried to dig his way out.
But as he dug with his hands, he realised the snow
would fill his car before he managed to break through.
He had 60 half-litre bottles of beer in his car as he
was going on holiday, and after cracking one open to
think about the problem he realised he could urinate
on the snow to melt it, local media reported.
He said: "I was scooping the snow from above me and
packing it down below the window, and then I peed on
it to melt it. It was hard and now my kidneys and
liver hurt. But I'm glad the beer I took on holiday
turned out to be useful and I managed to get out of
there."
Parts of Europe have this week been hit by the
heaviest snowfalls since 1941, with some places
registering more than ten feet of snow in 24 hours.
