Malfunctioning distillery turns lake into vodka. According to specialist analysis, the Bracholinskie lake in Wielkopolska is filled with alcohol.
The concentration of alcohol in the water amounts to 30% in some places. The phenomenon is a result of a technical problem in the nearby vodka production plant. "Our alcohol measuring equipment is not wrong. It recorded a level of 30%. There is vodka in this lake," stated chemist Robert Wilczynski. The news about the free vodka in the lake spread fast and attracted a number of farmers from nearby villages who arrived at the lake to take as much vodka as they can. Meanwhile local women are in despair and have turned to beg god to help save their husbands from the demon drink. "If God does not help us, everyone in the neighbourhood will be stinky drunkards and only a hole will be left on the site of our lovely lake," laments 76 year old Genowefa Licha. (Fakt, p. 10) E.B.

If it was 30% alcohol, wouldn't that make it 60 Proof?

Is it even possible for a lake to be 30% alcohol? Doesn't alcohol evaporate quickly? 30% is a huge percentage!

Yes. But 60 proof would probably be okay... with the right mixer.
Could this be a new drink trend? Vodka lake water and ????

Great graphic. But this sounds like an urban myth.
Wait a few minutes for the FR chemists to show up. I am thinking that it would be almost impossible to make an entire lake 60 proof.

Al's too boring. Even if he drank - which he is too healthy to do - he'd be boring.

Bracholinskie lake in Wielkopolska The poor fools are all so drunk they can't even pronounce where they live. It just comes out as a mumbled, slurring sound.
Oh, It's Poland? nevermind

American military person-ell on leave from Iraq are enjoying the environs of Lake Bracholinskie in Wielkopolska as we speak. Here US Navy warrant officer Theo " Speedball" Wojiekowitz is enjoying his favorite hobby of high speed water skiing , shortly after he and fighter pilot Lieutenant George " Slider" Brodkoviechovich had taken a "warm up swim" in the lake.
The Navy Officers brief weekend leave was initiated after a good will mission to Krakow by US Navy personnel from the Aircraft Carrier USS Polansky, had ended.

I can just taste it....a straight vodka with floaties in it...fish and duck feces, cigarette butts, and a slight gasoline taste from outboard motors.
