The healing power of Gorgo urine

[Goon]

I just saw "Rebirth of Mothra part II"
AAAAH HA HA HA HA HA HAHA HA HA HA!
Is there a mythology, legend, or story ANYWHERE that has healing pee in it, or did they just make it up?  Did they explain something in part one that I missed?  Oh well.

Aqua Mothra rocks!!!

Sounds like a cultural thing to me. I recall reading some book about different mythologies from around the world and one of them was a legend from Japan about how the island nation was created. Seems the Gods got drunk one night and p**sed down into the ocean. Guess what country that created?

Since you gave the answer away in your question, I'm going to say...Japan?

What makes this funny for me is that Gorgo was a British film not Japanese.

There is some thought that urine has medicinal properties-- mostly asian I think, though there was an Indian prime minister who drank a glass of urine a day.  Not sure what the idea is here, after all, this is stuff your body just got rid of!

"No, dammit, I don't want this stuff!  Great, I get stuck with a moron who drinks waste I just filtered out.  What's next, he's gonna eat crap?"

Yuck!

Well, at least urine is, by nature, not awash in bacteria.  

Just about as weird as the congressman who drank a solution with silver in it every day.  His skin turned a gray color.

[Funk, E.]

Urine if boiled and reduced is actually an effective anti-bacterial agent for wound dressing. Drinking it is essentially harmless if nasty. Some people find it a turn on, but I just don't get that at all.

My friend says that drinking urine will give you a buzz.

That it will give you a high.

Yeah right!

I simply laugh at him when he says that.

I tell him to go to the bathroom and fill up a glass and knock himself out but he never will.

The sad thing is that he's 28 years old and firmly believes this.

Do I have strange friends or what?

[Funk, E.]

Desperate perhaps,mis-informed perhaps, but not strange

Barney Frank, Andrew? OH, a GREY senator..........i thought he turned blue? That might mean he was from Cleveland.....
Well, they use urine to dissolve Jellyfish stickers.....

Ripley's had a story about a town in India where they believe cow urine is holy. People hold their hands under the cow while it pees and then splash the urine on their face, head and arms.

I've heard this story, and seen the photo.  I think he's in state government-- perhaps Montana or Wyoming.  He'd be perfect for a b-movie, doesn't need much make-up.
