River Trance – IOTW Report

River Trance

An Israel man in California apparently wanted to cleanse his thoughts thoroughly by meditating face down in the Yuba river. There was a previous drowning on the river last week, though authorities aren’t saying if the victim was also being a dumb ass.

  1. Reminds Me of the “Plastic Bag Challenge” Although I will say this

    version of Suicide is more Eco-Friendly….and If anything…I’m all

    about saving the environment ..One Dipshit at a time !

  2. Is this another take on the Breatharian movement? Except these guys aren’t doing as good of a job of sneaking a breath of air as the others are of sneaking a bite of food.

  3. Could the dude in the story just splash water on his face and get on with it? Sheesh. When did we start Xtreme Yoga?

    “His friend was doing his own meditation. A while later he went to check on Mr. Timmer and noticed he was unresponsive in the water.”

    OK let me ruin this by asking, are they sure his friend didn’t drown him?

  4. I’ve recommended to a few folks (flakes) that they should contemplate the odor of pure nitrogen. That truly grasping the pure essence of 80% of the atmosphere in the undiluted, uncontaminated (no oxygen) form would lead to insights and states of mind unavailable to the plebes and unsophisticated.

  5. It’s called a snorkel.
    I use mine (with a Loyd Bridges official Sea Hunt dive mask) to meditate on the finny armadas that patrol the depths of the creeks and lakes in Arizona.
    I fell asleep once like that.
    But not being a dumb ass, I woke up again.

    Remember…the sea is a beautiful and dangerous place. You come by next week and we’ll explore more of it, okay?

    That water is literally ice water. It’ll freeze your junk.

    You’re right Brad and the Yuba River is the recipient of all that snow melting from Donner Pass. It’s been hotter than Hades here, and people are headed to the river to cool off. Big mistake. Mean while, workers on Oroville Dam spillway are now working from 5:00 am to 2:00 pm, next shift arrives at 8:00 pm to avoid the hottest hours of the day. It’s a big mess!
