Astronauts drink water made from purified piss. Would you drink it?

Only if it is flavored.-
a little lemon?

Uh, no. I don't care how purified it is, I wouldn't be able to get the fact that it's piss out of my mind.-
even if it's your own?
-
Even if it's my own, I couldn't.
I'm horrible when it comes to food (and drinks). I can't eat venison (no matter how good it may taste) because I can't get the whole "Bambi" image out of my head while eating it.

No. I already saw Waterworld.
-
Yummy... must taste good... cant wait to go home and try it...
...Can we brand it peepsy-
Groan...

Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine... no but its sterile and I like the taste.-
really?
-
yes it is sterile..
oh and that is a quote from the movie Dodgeball.

The tap water where I live tastes like piss anyway, so I probably wouldn't notice any difference. -
URINE THERAPY by MICHAEL BRAUNSTEIN
www.heartlandhealing.com/pages/archive/urine_therapy/
"Though we have been conditioned to think of urine as "dirty," quite the opposite is true. Urine fresh from the "spigot" is actually sterile, devoid of any pathogens at all, (except in the case of a urinary or kidney infection). Urine is 95 percent water. The other five percent of our urine is made of dissolved and suspended solids, none of which are toxic. The two main components are simple salt and a compound called urea. In addition to salt and urea, other elements include hormones, proteins, antibodies and other beneficial pharmacological agents. So far from being harmful, urine actually does have known healing agents. Furthermore, if urine has a bad taste or smell, it is generally from the diet or habits of the contributor. Poor diet, poor habits and you will get a rank and smelly urine. The point is that urine components reflect the provider."-
very interesting

Lyoto Machida drinks his first piss in the morning. It seems to work for him, but I'll pass. -
Once I saw an episode of "Man vs. Wild" where Bear Gryllis (IMO a class A prat) took a whiz into an empty snakeskin and carried it around his neck for 70% of the episode, taking a nice long drink at the end.
Apparently, he was demonstrating the fine art of desert survival.
Personally, I'd hate to smell his breath after a stunt like that.
Nasty.-
I hate that Bear guy. We actually watched a few clips of his show yesterday in the office and all commented on how he makes everything seem so dangerous and dramatic, but if it's so horribly dangerous, how is the film crew following him. I think most of his show is BS.
-
Agreed 100%
-
But he gets naked!
-
I always liked the other guy better, Les Stroud - his show was Survivorman. He did all his own filming, carrying 50 pounds of camera gear around with him. No crew....very badass. -
Les was way better, Bear's show has a disclaimer saying he has help
-
-
That better be some good purified piss! -
All the worlds water has probably been pissed out of one organism or another at some point in time. London tap water goes through an average of three humans before it get to the sea.
Would polybore drink purified astronauts piss? Hell yeah! Either that or die of thirst in space.-
water is just T-rex pee anyways.

There are athletes who drink their own piss (unpurified) for the nutrients and hormones. It's true, just look it up.-
gatorade was modeled after urine
-
-
I've probably had worse in my mouth.-
Like me!

I understand some people get a sexual thrill out of being peed on. Certainly not a trigger to move me to masturbate. Ah, wail...everyone has their own (literally) taste. (grin...or groan)
"But the topic moved you to respond," the Muse says. With a lifted eyebrow. A slight smirk to her smile.
"Yeah, yeah," I reply. Admitting she's scored another on. -
Purified piddle. Great. Now I've seen everything.
-
uhm--- after the purification process - it would not chemically be urine any longer.
And it is probably what most of you city people are drinking anyway.
LOL!-
Good heavens. Please say it ain't so!

I have ... all a part of a military survival course I took over 20 years ago.
Don't want to have to do it ever again. Not necessarily the taste, it's the mental challenge because you realize it's your urine!-
Ah the military - where you kiss their asses, take their shit and now - DRINK their PISS! LOL
