Woody Harrelson Will Live on a Remote Island and Fast for 40 Days

More Woody Harrelson news! This guy is quickly becoming my favorite eco-celeb because he’s genuine and kind of kooky, which makes writing about him more fun. Woody is known for being extremely dedicated to environmentalism, animal rights and the vegan lifestyle. In the past, he’s done some fairly eccentric things, like the 38 day green juice fast and flying his vegan shoes and belt to Cannes after forgetting them at home. Now, he’s planning the most extreme display of weird Woodyism yet.
From Now Magazine via Ecorazzi:
Woody Harrelson plans to live on a remote island and eat nothing for 40 days - to see how the experience affects his brain.
The actor, 46, will go ahead with the experiment as soon as he gets a break in his work schedule.
‘I’ve always wanted to do it,’ he says.
‘I know it’s going to be really hard. But can you imagine it? Eating nothing for 40 days? Swimming and surfing every day in a remote place? Where does the mind go?’
Yoga-loving Woody loves isolated places.
I can only imagine what would happen to my brain after 40 days. Hell, after five days I would be hallucinating. I’d start salivating, Homer Simpson style, over visions of plates of hot food and mugs of coffee. Good luck, Woody!

You go Woody! I wish you would film it, because at some point, I would like to see the actualy affects and for it to be shared with others.
We need more of the kooky type celebs doing thing to get people’s attention. Sometime it seems as if American only care about celebrities.
Let me know if you want company Woody…..sounds like a great vacation for me!
The question begs: At the end of the 40 days, WHO is picking him up from the island? What kind of medical plans are being considered? He’s going to be malnourished, likely dehydrated and mentally impaired after such deprivation. Best of luck to him… Hope he’s giving this more thought/planning before heading out.
