Don't Drink Too Much .... Water! ... Mom of 3 is Dead :-(

The suspected water intoxication death of Jennifer Lea Strange reported here in Sacramento over the weekend was very sad. Some of the coverage and the facts, however, made the story even sadder, as I show in this video.

The short clip from my local ABC news affiliate KXTV channel 10 comes from a longer segment available at: http://www.news10.net/includes/buildasx.aspx?fn=/january2007/011307/radio-dea...

Good video (until the last line that was just retarded)

I think that the sheriff was wrong in absolving the radio station. Although this type of death is not common enough to the general public, I think the radio station should have been accountable for the health concerns that they were posing on the contestants. (ITS PURE NEGLEGENT)

On the latter, water won't be illegal. But it would be good if maybe a warning label was put on gallon jugs of water. To warn consumers to drink in moderation.

Did she win?

This video is TRUE. I almost died of drinking too much water. I'm only 16, it happened when I was 14. I was drinking approximately 10-13 liters a day.

I think the reasons they make contests like this is that it is a scam. Like if the contestant died from that contest, then they won't have to give away the prize because he or she is dead, right?

jus eat salt if you think you drank too much, pretzels, not pure salt

[sailorminimoon1000]

WTF?!?!? Water will never be illegal we will die without it but if they did make illegal then their on crack lol ....

[flimsynoodle]

[PureBrutalSickness]

drinking too much water during the day is good but too much at ones is bad

I've heard this story some where else. There was even audio from the show where you could in fact hear a nurse calling the show and being taunted by the hosts.

i might be wrong but i think you can drink it all day just as long as you pee
