How ironic.
OT: I'm personally undecided on the issue, as of now.

Drinking too much water will kill you even if you do use the bathroom. It's called water poisoning. Basically, your water to salt/electrolyte ratio drops so much that your brain can't send electrical signals needed to keep you going.
You wouldn't have a contest where whoever can take the most cyanide wins.

i agree with you to an extent, but the radio station was being negligent for not providing medical assitance, and having the appropiate measures.
Why would i risk my life for a $249 dollar product? thats just insane.

They do have those contests, and they are called cults. And those people are also idiots!
And I know what water poisoning is, your body has failsafes to prevent you from doing something stupid like that to kill yourself. It's funny. huamns are so "smart" that they can ignore there body telling them to STOP, thus being stupid, how ironic. so smart you are stupid! When you get cramps your body is telling you you are workign too hard, and your body thinks "hey, I'm going to make this part of you hurt like hell so you stop doing it!" and usually it works, unless you are a dumbass and keep pushing yourself. That lady knew when she had drank too much, you will start to feel terrible, and she didn't stop. Maybe the radio should have had medical staff ready, for all we know there could have been, I don't know, but even if there weren't any I still think the lawsuit is dumb.
Kind of like a fat person with heart problems riding a rollercoaster and geting a heart attack and the family sueing the park because he died on their ride. HELLO you have heart problems! don't go on the intense stuff! not the theme parks problem, they even have those little warning signs before you get on.
The only time I see a lawsuit being perfectly ok is when the company / organization is clearly at fault. For example a train derailing (unless it's caused by something like an earthquake), a latter breaking, a support failing, etc. But when it's your own damn fault, I don't care at all.
@ph4nt
Exactly.
Nothing says closure like a big, freaking wad of cash.

Just because the woman is a moron(which she is), doesn't mean the radio station wasn't being negligent. Both can exist simultaneously. It was irresponsible for the station to hold that contest, and I gather they probably didn't warn or advise about the dangers and probably didn't have medical staff on site, which is likely where the large judgment stems from. The people that held the contest probably didn't know any more about water poisoning than the woman did.

Finally the family can afford the Wii they deserve.
Insensitive joke aside, this woman, not a big brain in her head, but man she was willing to go through *anything* to get that Wii, which I assume was for her children that she loved dearly.
@phychoBrew
Its scary to think that between the radio station personnel and all the participants, nobody knew the dangers of holding back ones pee for that long. What happened to common sense?
