LA Air, Not Just for Breathing
One of my uncles owned a small rural general store; in fact he owned and ran the whole town. During the 80's fitness craze he added a small gym onto the rambling establishment, and offered member privleges to people staying at his campsite.

Containing little more than a universal gym set, some free weights, and a sauna, the place wasn't heavily used.

One day a camper visiting from Los Angeles entered the sauna, and found that the latch was faulty -- he was stuck in there for over 4 hours.

Extremely dehydrated, and lucky to be alive, the most notable feature of his condition when found was his color.

So much black goo had seeped out of his pores that his rescuers thought he was Indian. He sued, of course, but was unfortunately killed by an escaped prisoner before the case came to trial. Both misadventures happened on fishing trips, a lesson for us all, I think.

Yuk.
Black goo. =/

I suppose he'd have had very clear skin after it all. At least he got something out of it!
