It is not about Banning skinny people, it is about trying to save the lives of young girls who are starving themselves for the sake of fashion

If you're going to ban "skinny" people you darn well better ban the fat people. I don't want to see that, no one wants to see that.

It is not only the media and designers that have brought this sad situation about, it is also the general public. To me there is little difference between skinny girls who aren't looking after their bodies and denying their health and those at the other end of the scale who are obese, neither really cares for themselves nor posesses personal pride. Bring back the days of Marilyn Munroes and the like where a womens figure was allowed to be full (but not fat) and curvaceous and maybe there will be a change in public attititude. This is the responsibility of the designers, they initiate the market trends for the masses (lets be fair no-one with any decorum wears some of the freak stuff from the catwalk in real life) and they too can sway the "way" women look and what is acceptable, maybe its just a power thing to be able to make someone want to starve themselves to death just to get a job modelling....very sad !!!!

The Guinness Book is absolutely right!!!! It's absurd to risk your life and health in such a way!!! Such experiments should be vorbidden. I think it's not necessary to stay awake for 11 days to prove that your brain stops functioning in a proper way. We all know that sleep is necessary as it helps to regain strength and imrove mental processes in our brain. The guy just spoilt his health...

I'd love to live a few hundred years. If not by this method, stem cells should do the trick (and keep you youthful, to boot!). And, if overpopulation bothers you, send me to the moon. I'll work on greenhouse projects, I don't care. It should be the decision of the individual, not the religious community.

Well, I believe that our emotions are the result of certain interior processes in our blood, but I can't see the connection with crimes. If it were so easy, then it would be enough just to feed the criminal in a proper way...
