WHAT, PEOPLE ARE IMMERSING THEMSELVES IN THE DEAD SEA DURING THE YOM KIPPUR FAST? GET REAL, YNET. STOP TRYING TO INCITE MORE ANTI-RELIGIOUS SENTIMENT. YOU ARE FIGHTING A LOSING BATTLE. BARUCH DAYAN HAEMET. MAY THEIR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS FIND COMFORT AMONG THE MOURNERS OF ZION.
2. Wow...
Baruch ,   Marin County, CA   (09.18.10)
Wow, and all that happened on Yom Kippur. Gosh. That's almost better than waiting for God's judgment. That's instant karma. Makes you wonder, dudn't it.

And nobody cares about these idiots?! It was yom kippur for God's sake! If you're so f***ing religious stay at home and atone your sins!
4. 3 drowned because they did not fast
yerushalmi ,   jerusalem   (09.19.10)

5. dead sea drowning WHAT?!
blash ,   Jerusalem   (09.19.10)
"on Saturday, a 32-year old man drowned to death in the Dead Sea." How is that even possible?! everything floats in the Dead Sea. And the guy's 32 years old not 92. just.... whaaaaat?!

7. #5: Float Yes, But Face Down
emanon ,   USA   (09.19.10)
I don't know how it could happen, but if you flipped over and were face down, yes you could still float, but there would be nothing to breathe. Not being there personally, I have no idea what happened, but that could account for the drowning.
