There is an Audi in this story
 

Man peed way out of avalanche

A Slovak man trapped in his car under an avalanche freed himself by drinking 60
bottles of beer and urinating on the snow to melt it.

Rescue teams found Richard Kral drunk and staggering along a mountain path four
days after his Audi car was buried in the Slovak Tatra mountains.

He told them that after the avalanche, he had opened his car window and tried to
dig his way out.

But as he dug with his hands, he realised the snow would fill his car before he
managed to break through.

He had 60 half-litre bottles of beer in his car as he was going on holiday, and
after cracking one open to think about the problem he realised he could urinate
on the snow to melt it, local media reported.

He said: "I was scooping the snow from above me and packing it down below the
window, and then I peed on it to melt it. It was hard and now my kidneys and
liver hurt. But I'm glad the beer I took on holiday turned out to be useful and
I managed to get out of there."

Parts of Europe have this week been hit by the heaviest snowfalls since 1941,
with some places registering more than ten feet of snow in 24 hours.

Sooo...how different is 'liver pain' from a stomach ache? And if he was so
drunk, would he not be "feeling no pain"?

If it's true, good thing his windows worked......;-)
