Did you read the article? They took her to a psychiatric hospital, and explicitly note there’s a discrepancy about the time. I’m not saying she wasn’t abused, or that her whole story is fake. Just, we all know you can’t go 40 days without water. You can’t go a week without water.
You can’t survive 40 days without rehydration, but if you were given fluid intravenously, you can go without actually drinking anything. She states he injected her with something, maybe it was drugged, and maybe he hooked her up with an iv drip? I dunno. The whole situation is royally fucked up, any way you look at it
That’d have to be a pretty large IV bag for 40 days. If he was trying to kill her he wouldn’t have hung one up to begin with, and he wouldn’t have come back to change the bags if he did hang one up for whatever reason.
It rains a lot in some parts of India, hence the existence of the jungle where she was chained.
Maybe she survived by drinking puddles of rainwater within her range of movement?
That may not be enough water to sustain her forever, but it would extend her survival.
That, and lack of water and food can lead to delirium which can lead to losing sense of time.
She might have picked “40 days” as a Bible reference. That’s a pretty common number that represents a long time in western culture, even if they’re not directly referencing the Bible.
That’s a lot of mights and maybes. I feel the article did an ok job at leaving those out and going only off of what is known. Which is exactly what the news is suppose to be
You would be surprised at how terrible everyone is at passive time estimations without clocks. I literally had to take time out of my day to get this correct.
No do a choice of intervals like any of these 1-2-5-10or15-30-45-60 intervals and you will get the rough times but remember this you can NEVER look at the clock while you are timing yourself internally. Just put a timer and try and predict how closer you are eventually you will get really good estimates. I have had a 2 hour wait and was only 15 minutes off it’s actually pretty good.
You reckon it’s possible to lose track of time when chained to a tree while experiencing a psychotic episode?

I read the article. I understand the basis of your argument.

Being hooked up to an IV drip in the middle of a forest is surely something the article would have mentioned?
I agree, I’m just speculating how it would be possible.

That sounds like it would take a very long time to get right. What… Like 2-3 months?
