I didn't know that this could happen, it's quite frightening and a good warning.
From AOL News:
A Californian woman who took part in a water-drinking contest to win a video game system has died of water intoxication.
Jennifer Strange took part in the "Hold Your Wee for a Wii" game run by KDND 107.9 radio in Sacramento, which promised the winner a Nintendo Wii.
A work colleague said Ms Strange had reported her head was hurting hours after the contest and was going home.
Ms Strange, 28, was found dead on Friday at her house in Rancho Cordova.
Local assistant coroner Ed Smith said initial tests showed death was "consistent with water intoxication".
