I remember hearing of a burglar who thought he could gain entry to an older house via the chimney. He got wedged in it and nobody could here his desperate cries for help. For anyone, even without having claustrophobia, a horrifying way to die.

Nice cheery thread for the weekend!

Reminds me of this story, the lass who got stuck trying to retrieve her poop:

Yes all the smoke from the fire would have spilled out into the room!

I'm sure the retelling was good for a few double entendres. Sh*tty date, started well went down the pan, wasn't just a flush in the pan, thought she was a nice girl till the mud slinging started etc, etc.

A similar, possibly apocryphal, tale involved the bloke having dinner at his prospective in-laws. He dealt with the non-flushable item in the same way, launching it out the window.

He then returned to the table. In the conservatory. To find the assembled guests staring upwards at the glass roof.

People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw logs.

Certainly aprocryphal. I recall this story more than 40 years ago in one of those books of 100 acts of stupidity anecdotes. Like the would be supermarket till robber who having handed over a ten pound note for goods, when the till is opened, manages to grab less than ten pounds of getaway cash :lol: lovely story but probably never happened.

Yeah, but crap jokes just don't go away. This one won't be flushed down the khazi, and has instead appeared here.
