Hahaha @Somy I was just wondering because people can survive like three days without drinking water. So what about peeing. And it seemed like you investigated so much.

OpenStudy (somy):

._. try not urinating see for yourself lmao

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, I get up to pee only like two times a day. But I want to know for a fact

How long that takes depends on your hydration level, if you don't have a lot of extra liquids in your system, your kidneys won't be creating as much pee. Holding it in won't kill you, it just might make you more prone to urinary tract infections. But there is the story of Tycho Brahe, who supposedly died in the 1600s at a banquet from a ruptured bladder because he held it in too long, but it was more likely an infection that caused his death.

Looked a bit online and found this also, "The average person produces about 1,500 ml of urine every 24 hours, so it only takes nine or 10 hours before you're filled up and you've gotta go bad"
