A favorite in Basic Training is the idea if you put someone's hand in a bowl of water while he is asleep then that person will wet the bed without any hope of control. That story ran around quite a bit in Basic and there was even some thinking about how to pull off a prank to test it but that never actually happened. It's not typically your best idea to try such pranks with people who will be carrying weapons with live ammunition a few hours later.
Years later, I have to do know. Is it true. For forty years, the question has haunted me. Can you really make someone wet the bed this way.
In the absence of a testimonial, there's only one other thing, take it to Google.
From there we located the definitive statement from MythBusters as they not only thought of the question but tried it. You can discover what happened at Hand In Water While Asleep Makes You Urinate at Discovery News.
(Ed: how is this news?)
If you wake up in a wet bed for no apparent reason, you may consider it newsworthy.
The actual result of such a test is left to science but we do know one thing which will happen even if it doesn't work. A fellow soldier will awaken to find you are holding his hand. Unless you have already professed your romantic intentions, this situation may not go well.
