So this may sound crazy, but y'all remember some months back when celebrities and new agers were touting the benefits of sunning your butthole? And how a lot of us anons (myself included) thought "WTH is this stupidity?" And now we're hearing the benefits of UVs from sunlight killing viruses and other harming things in our bodies?

Then last night I suddenly remembered a Bear Grylls `episode showing clips that never made it to air. In one of those clips, he showed that you could safely absorb unclean water into your body through your anus, and he demonstrated by building a gravity-fed IV of sort and shoved the end of the tube up his butt to let the brackish water drip into his colon area. There is a lot of blood vessels in the area close to the surface, so the water gets absorbed into the bloodstream while the contaminants didn't. This bypasses the stomach, so you don't have to worry about getting stomach aches or water borne illnesses/poisoning from it.

I also remembered a "1000 Ways to Die" episode where an alcoholic on parole for DUI wanted a drink but couldn't because court order. So he came up with the idea of having his wife do the same thing Bear Grylls did but instead of water he used alcohol. Well, the alcohol got absorbed very quickly into his blood stream and he died shortly thereafter from acute alcohol poisoning. By bypassing the normal digestive track, his body wasn't able to go through the normal stages of drunkenness to warn the guy he had enough until it already absorbed too much to be lethal.

Point is, what if all those celebrities and new agers were on to something? Is it possible that by shining sunlight where the sun don't shine these people were somehow directly absorbing UV rays into the bloodstream thereby purifying themselves from toxins and other bad stuff? Not suggesting we all start putting our asses in the air like we just don't care, but maybe there is something more to this than we originally thought.
