More like conscious suicide! I'm guessing that the Breatharians who manage to avoid death by starvation have been munching on the sly.

Don't be so cocky! It has been proven. Breatharians can live for up to three minutes on this diet. It's been proven.

This kid's claims of inedia(or rather his followers' claims, as it doesn't look like he speaks very often) seem to have at least some evidence. The Discovery channel filmed him for 96 hours non-stop, during which time he did not eat, drink, or move.

Just wondering how they reproduce? Do they have sex or is it by breathing...

No, not really. Though not moving for that long would be a drag. I've gone without eating for 10 days when I was sick.

No. People who have found themselves without access to water have done this as a matter of course.

Would he have gone without water for 4 days if he were sitting in a desert?
