An 82-year-old man in India claims he has not had any food or drink for 70 years. Military scientists have isolated him in a hospital in order to verify his claims; so far he's spent 6 days under observation with no food or water, and no signs of hunger or dehydration. Prahlad Jani is considered by some to be "breatharian" who can live on a "spiritual life-force" alone; others think him a fraud. Read the full article in the Telegraph. (More breatharian stories.)
