But there is a difference between making a claim about not drinking water and literally holding your hand up in a way you can't fake.

Yeah he was obviously sleeping for 50 years and holding his hand up. I can believe that.

Look at his arm. Unless all the videos of that guy are fake (even during a time where making a convincing video fakes was really hard). That arm is not going down even if he wanted.
