I had read about that somewhere. Seems the man's gut ferments sugars in his system. Now that the word has gotten out I suspect someone will find a way to sell the fungus to help people get high.

Brewer's yeast, or just yeast overgrowth?

Nope, a gut fungus that causes self-fermentation.

I just saw this on CNN, too. poor guy.
