A 26 year old man got himself into an embarrassing situation while on board a high-speed train in France on Sunday.

It seems that while using the washroom aboard the train, he accidentally dropped his mobile phone into the toilet. He bent to retrieve his phone but as he was fishing around his hand became trapped in the toilet.

Firefighters had to cut through the u-bend to free him. Witnesses at the scene say that that “He came out on a stretcher, with his hand still jammed in the toilet bowl, which they had to saw clean off.” The accident occurred on Sunday’s 4:47 pm train from La Rochelle to Bordeaux, in western France.

Train service was delayed for two hours as the victim was rescued. It’s thought that his hand became stuck due to the train toilets powerful suction system which drains the loos on board.

Wild turkey smashes through family’s window

Last Monday a Livingston N.J. family got a rude awakening. One of the wild turkey kind and no I don’t mean they had a hang over!

A two foot tall wild turkey came barely through the families double pained window last Sunday morning.

Lena Rosenblum, homeowner, told the local paper that the sound was so loud that she thought a tree had crashed through the roof of their home.

The turkey appeared to be uninjured and it’s not known what might have caused it to crash through the window. Perhaps it was being chased by another animal?

The family called the police, however once they arrived the beep from one of their walkie talkies startled the bird causing it to fly back into the woods.

Don’t take your time robbing a bank

A 16 year old learned the hard way that when you’re robbing a bank it’s a good idea to be as quick as you can!

In February the teen walked into a CIBC bank and proceeded to not only rob the teller that was serving him, but all of the tellers, the vault and the customers that happened to be in the bank during the unfortunate robbery.

He was in the bank for at least 45 minutes.

I guess he hasn’t watch too many movies with bank heists as he forgot about the silent alarm.

The alarm had been activated while he slowly gathered up at least $150,000. By the time he walked out of the bank with the cash stuffed in a sack the bank was surrounded by police.
