and they even contemplated cannibalism???? nuts, i tell ya, nuts!!!

(NEWSER) � If you were surprised to learn that some of the Chilean miners contemplated cannibalism during their time underground, steel yourself for another big reveal: Some of them smoked pot, or so says a new book by New York Times journalist Jonathan Franklin. The Daily Mail notes that Franklin had special access to the rescue operation, and his book claims some of them got marijuana smuggled to them by way of letters from their family ... and didn't share.
Franklin says the pot "created more tension than it relieved," and says officials contemplated using a drug-sniffing dog. And speaking of tension: The men also asked for blow-up sex dolls, and a donor reportedly offered 10 dolls but was turned down. A doctor monitoring the men reportedly said, "33 or none. Otherwise they would be fighting for inflatable dolls: whose turn is it? Who was seen with whose fiancee? You are flirting with my inflatable doll." Instead, they got pin-ups from a popular tabloid and porn. The Mail also notes that there were two "near disasters" while the men were being hauled out. Click for more new details on their time underground.

only way i see to be true is if one miner ran out of pot he tried to beat the other for his ^_^

Being down in a caved in mine is probably not a good place to smoke something that can make you paranoid.
