5 Dumbest Conspiracy Theories People Actually Believe
Breatharianism — Living On Air Alone

Why eat food when you can just breathe? That’s the belief of “breatharians,” people who claim they can survive on nothing but air, light, and “prana.” The only problem? It kills people. In 1999, a Scottish man died after finding a breatharian website. A German kindergarten teacher died after three weeks of fasting. One prominent breatharian was put to the test by Australian TV and started showing signs of dehydration on day one. People are literally dying for this theory. And it’s completely avoidable by just eating a sandwich.
