According to media reports, scientists and doctors have studied yoga twice - in 2003 and 2010. They placed him in isolated rooms for 10 days and monitored what was happening. It turned out that the man really did not eat anything, did not drink and did not fulfill his natural needs. Prahlada Jani was also studied by Indian military doctors who tried to understand the secret of the yogi to train soldiers to survive in difficult conditions.
However, there were also skeptical opinions. Some observers noted that Jani left his room to meet visitors and also gargled. And all this happened due to insufficient supervision by the staff.
