Default crazy...woman dies of water intoxication
I knew it was theoretically possible to die from too much water but I've never heard of it actually happening.

There was an episode of St. Elsewhere, I think, that dealt with this.. Guy would stand in the shower drinking gallons. I had never heard of it before and not again until now..

Many of the deaths of people on x-tacy are from drinking too much water.
