YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS UP

Story out of the U.K. today about an old man who was trapped under his sofa for three days. Apparently during a power outage the man was disoriented and stumbled over his sofa, which then proceeded to tip over, trapping him underneath. Unable to free himself, he remained there for nearly 3 days, until a neighbour who was worried that he had not been heard from, peeked in the window. The man claims he survived by drinking whiskey from a bottle that luckily was within reach when he found himself trapped. I am just wondering how he was able to relieve himself during the duration of his ordeal.
