If people didn't know, "Brainiac: Science Abuse" is a TV program in the UK that uses science to do fun and sometimes dangerous experiments to push the limits, in the name of science. Such examples include seeing if a person could get drunk through osmosis (lying in a bath tub of beer, trying to get the skin to absorb it.); it turns out it doesn't work. The one that did work is to use beer instead of water, when pouring over hot stones in a sauna (inhaling alcohol to get drunk).

I don't really remember many other experiments, as I haven't seen too much of that show. I like that alcohol one though :)

Very interesting. What if I decide to bring a bottle of Jack Daniel's to my next (and first) sauna visit? Do you think it would be as safe as beer, or will I burn the place down? Either way, sounds like a winner to me.:)

My favourite experiment would have to be the hangover cure test... In my experience its also been the most helpfull. Obviously apart from the one thats tells you if you cover your kitchen in tinfoil youll get better phone coverage lol.
