First off, a water enema is a medically sound method of hydrating a patient who, for some reason, is unable to take fluids orally. When liquid is introduced into the colon, its membrane simply allows the liquid to pass through and be absorbed into the body — which seems counter-intuitive to most if us.

Still, this method is a nice alternative to hydrate a patient who, for example, vomits repeatedly after drinking, or due to some traumatic injury is physically unable to drink. So, by extension, this type of enema can be a potentially lifesaving tool because it allows the survivor to attempt hydration using water that is not otherwise potable.

This is what the Robertson family did in to keep themselves alive while they drifted 38 days at sea after their sailboat sank miles West of the Galapagos Islands. Their only source of water was from rain, which they collected using a rubber canopy and funneling it into containers. Fearing to waste even a drop, Lynn, the mother and a nurse, used her her medical training to come up with the idea of using the contaminated yellow water as a Murphy Drip. This worked because the rectal membrane, let the water pass into the body while keeping out the salt and rubber contaminates — Basically, this is just how food passes into the digestive system and is dried into feces.

Yes, in his defense, Grylls simply mirrored what Lynn Robertson did. In his survival scenarion, his water was supposedly contaminated by guano, not seawater.

However, because his medical explanation of what he was doing was so limited, he inadvertently left many viewers with the impression that a survivor could use purely seawater as an hydration enema.

Adventurer Bear Grylls once hollowed out a camel carcass and slept inside it, so he's probably well-equipped to handle the latest round of complaints fired at his reality television shows. If you watched Grylls use his own urine as a source of hydration or break a snake's neck with his teeth in Man V Wild , you probably wouldn't have batted an eyelid when images of two men being administered an enema with a rubber tube and water bottle appeared on the final episode of his latest series The Island With Bear Grylls.

The act apparently was not only uncomfortable for the islanders but for viewers of the show, which was broadcast on Britain's Channel 4 and generated a social media uproar and complaints to the communications regulator. It will never be on my tv ever again," posted a clearly unamused Yasmin Evans on Twitter. Im not a squeamish person but watching a boy get an enema on tv while I'm eating my dinner crosses the line," Adam Henderson wrote. Long-term Grylls fans would be well aware of the benefits of knowing how to perform such an intimate procedure.

Once when the intrepid explorer was stuck at sea on a makeshift raft, he gave himself an enema to ensure he didn't dehydrate.
