I am all for fasting. I intermittently fast daily (consuming all my calories within a 4-8 hour window during the latter part of each day) and I always work out fasted (which boosts muscles growth, and therefore, metabolism) but purely drinking water for over 72 hours is a dangerous practice.

After 72 hours your muscles will begin to decompose for protein and you may be running short of nutrients. At least have some protein (which itself takes a significant amount of calories for the body to absorb) along with some vitamins/minerals - perhaps a supplement - to avoid hyponatremia.
