Watch this guy try to drink water in 80 mph winds — VIDEO

About a year ago, a man found himself in the path of extreme wind in Iceland and tried to have a little drink of water.

Well, he fails. And it’s hilarious.

In a video that made the rounds this week, Mark Tretter explains that the wind was about 75 - 80 mph, save for a spot in the beginning in the “wind shadow” of the Hotel Bodir.

He said he was inspired by a decades-old video of a person being served breakfast on Mount Washington in 100 mph wind.
