MSNBC– A sweat lodge outside Sedona, Ariz., where two people were overcome and later died and 19 others fell ill lacked the necessary building permit, an official said Monday.At any one time, 55 to 65 people attending the “Spiritual Warrior” program hosted by self-help expert and author James Arthur Ray were crowded into the 415-square-foot space during a two-hour period Thursday night, Yavapai County sheriff’s officials said. Kirby Brown, 38, of Westtown, N.Y., and James Shore, 40, of Milwaukee died after being overcome in the sauna-like hut, which was built specifically for the five-day retreat. Nineteen other people were hospitalized with symptoms ranging from dehydration to kidney failure. One remained in critical condition Monday, and two others were in fair condition.

WTF? People pay $9000 a week to sit in a steam-filled tent with a bunch of smelly people? Ever heard of a gym?
