Diarrhea in Sensory Deprivation Tank

Diarrhea in sensory deprivation tank Title pretty much sums it up. I paid for a sensory deprivation tank experience not realizing I had contracted norovirus and was about to became symptomatic. Initially I was having a lot of weird hallucination type sensations where I chalked up to the experience (later turned out I had a 103 F fever) and somewhat fell asleep. I woke up to an awful odor and demanded to be let out of the tank and it turned out I had diarrhea'ed in it. This alone was a traumatizing experience but now the facility is trying to charge me $8,000 to replace the tank as they do not feel they can safely disinfect this. I don't recall signing anything with some sort of “diarrhea clause”, am I actually liable here?

A Reddit user describes becoming ill with norovirus during a sensory deprivation tank session, falling asleep, and having diarrhea in the tank. The punchline is the absurd legal and financial aftermath: the facility wants $8,000 to replace the tank, prompting the user to ask whether they are liable. It is shared as a gross, bizarre, and darkly humorous real-life story.
