Extracting the urine to quench your thirst

By Paul Smith

Thank baby jesus this is only a design, and not a product I may be cajoled into purchasing by tree-hugging hippies.

If the world crumbles to the point that I need to consider drinking my own piss – purified or not – I’d rather see the bombs start dropping to be honest. Yes it’s a very clever concept but no, it’s not for me:

I once saw Bear Grylls piss into the skin of a rattle snake, (yes, it was dead, the camera man killed it, Bear was cowering behind the make-up artist) then take sips from it throughout the day, sounds cheaper than this, albeit a little more dangerous. Ray Mears would have gone one better, fashioning the remaining skin of said rattler into a hammock, and using the fangs as tent pegs.
