More power to the guy if he can pull it off, but... isn't this just a wee bit dangerous?

More likely than not, the trainers will give him salt pills to hold fluids and keep an extra eye on him for overheating and dehydration.

If I were Chilly while embracing him I would slip him a pen and have him sign a waiver...lest he or his heirs decide one day to sue the Vikings for letting him participate under the circumstances...
