Jennifer Strange, twenty-eight, died trying to win a Nintendo.<\/p>\n
In January 2007, a radio station in Sacramento, California, staged a water-drinking contest, promising a Nintendo Wii video game system to the person whose bladder held out the longest.<\/p>\n
Strange did her best, but she didn\u2019t win the contest. Furthermore, several hours after the contest, Jennifer left work with a terrible headache. Later that day she was found dead in her house. An autopsy revealed that too much water had disrupted the electrolyte balance in her blood. Jennifer Strange literally died of water intoxication.<\/p>\n
