A mother of 3 recently died after winning a contest for Sacramento radio station KDND. The contest was called "Hold Your Wee for a Wii." Contestants had to drinking water without going to the bathroom. The winner consumed about two gallons of water within about 3 hours and died later that day.
The cause of death is water intoxication, or water poisoning, which is a potentially fatal condition when a person consumes a large quantity of water and their bodily fluids become overly diluted, causing sodium levels to fall below normal. This can lead to brain swelling, seizures, coma and, in severe cases, death.
The fallout??? 10 people from KDND were fired. Of the 10, 5 of them were on air personalities.

All this for a 300 dollar gaming system. I just don't get it.
Ninetndo Wii: 300 dollars
