If you are lost in the snow, do not be too worried ans this man in Tokyo has proven that he survived just by eating snow for a week.
"Masayuki Nakamura headed into the Azuma mountain range about 240 km (150 miles) north of Tokyo on December 30, saying he planned to be back on January 2.
But he became disoriented in the snow and wandered the area for more than a week, reports said. He had no mobile phone and his food supply ran out after a few days."
All I can say is that this is one of those people who has the will to survive!

i really can understand how a person can live by taking ice only. may be his rate of metabolism was less. also it is the way to live and the will power to live despite all odds.

it is reported by the science that a normal person can live seven days without food,but can only live three days without water ,so water is more important to people .

it's possible.eating snow is eating water.one person could survive one week if he or she dont eat anything except water which i ever read in the newpaper.what's more,he had a will and ambition of survival,so it's no doute he can
