Is it possible to live without consuming things

I mean literally consuming water and calories and vitamins. I just heard about something called a breatharian, a person who survives on nothing but air, and it just seems like mumbo jumbo to me.

However, I've heard stranger things that were proven true, so is it actually possible?

Another name for the breatharian diet is starvation or, as is commonly seen amongst models, anorexia. These people are taking advantage of eating disorders and are promoting a cult to vulnerable people.

In 1999, the Australian television program “60 Minutes” tested Greve's ability to live on prana, the “light of God". Once Greve had fasted for four days "her pupils were dilated, her speech was slow, she was dehydrated, and her pulse had doubled. The doctor feared her kidneys were shutting down the controlled condition fast was stopped before permanent damage was done.

Prahlad Jani also claims he survives without food or drink and that he was examined by a Dr Shah to verify this. However neither of them allow independent verification.

Breatharians do exist. Just like everyone else, i was shocked to the core. we actually met a friend who is a breatharian and AMAZING. we actually witnessed him eating nothing nor drinking but needing to take a lot of sun light during the day as he says it helps him gain all his energy back.
he* wasn't skinny at all, perfectly fit and i think he's been a breatharian for seven years.

A fact, and i assume many people won't believe it and think it's a load of C*** because they witnessed it...
but yes, there is such people called breatharians :) don't believe people who say it isn't true.

"Is it possible to live without consuming things?"

Yes, but not for very long.
