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.
This begs for a snoping.
Greatest. Escape. Ever.

Now THERE'S a guy who's using his head (of foam).
Peeeeng...... peeeeeng....
Drink a beer, save a life.
AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Don't-eat-yellow-snow bump.
He was using all three heads he had available ...
Yeah, he's a real wiz.
What was the guy doing with 60 bottles of beer in his car?
Now that's using your......head.
Ah, yes, the old Homer Simpson Solution to all life's problems. Give this guy a Nobel Prize
He can title the book he writes about the experience "the King of the Golden Stream".
This merits the old, "Hold'muh'beer' alert.
....And that, My dearest Honey, is the story of how I got drunk. I swear its true, every word....
Right. Did he suspend the law of gravity?
Why didn't he just pour the beer on the snow instead of processing it?
Suppose he could have just poured the beer in the snow directly but it wouldn't have been has much fun.
