Ignorance is not an excuse especially when she continued with this stunt despite being in bad pain. She knew how she felt better than anyone else.
BTW, I saw the "winner" on Larry King yesterday. She indicated that she had fun participating in the contest and might do it again!
These morons deserve pity - for being born with nary a single ounce of grey matter.
Is there any indication if the winner had eaten anything? I was out in the sun a few months back and started drinking a lot of water. I started too feel woozy and light headed. At first, I thought it wasn't enough water. A friend noticed and got me some food. Suddenly I realized I needed salt. I was handed a can of chips. I still felt weird after that, but not as bad as I had.
