A 48-year-old woman survived five days in Australia just eating lollipops and drinking a bottle of wine. Could you survive on alcohol and sugar alone?

I survived on just drinking RedBull for 6 days.

She really only managed to survive because she stayed with her car the entire time. If she had walked away from her car, she would have likely been found dead, as the temperatures in Australia are cold. To answer your question, as someone else mentioned you really only need water to help you get by.

I mean sure I could survive but I’d be miserable with a pounding headache.

Five days, you only need water and you are good. It sucks but you should pull through.

Look at that neck fat... she could've survived for years.

I would skip the candy... and celebrate every night instead

Well, what what other choice did she have but I wouldn’t just sit there I would try to find my way out and find my way to a stream so I could drink some water

That's hardly worth mentioning. People do more than that in Africa.

anyone can survive on water easily 2-3 weeks, wine has water, she didn't need to eat the lollipops

If it was all I had

[Agape93]

Probably, but would I want to?

[exitseven]

Survive on alcohol? *laughs in Wisconsinese*

for 5 days you can survive on no food.
