  3. I presume the poor sod suffered the exact same type of fall as the guy (or girl IIRC) who had a Buzz Lightyear figurine stuck in their rectum.

    To incontenency and beyond!

  9. >The military collector claimed that the armor-piercing ammunition was from his personal arsenal.

    “I’ve always had a certain fascination with anti-tank weaponry,” he added. “I’d been hoping to start exploring the world of naval gunnery at some point.”

    *Warrant Officer Class 2 Gary Fitzpatrick had, in the course of his career, had to deal with a variety of unexpected situations and work with a wide range of people. He had disarmed IEDs with Royal Marines covering him in Iraq. He had made sunken ammunition safe in conjunction with frogmen. Back in Old Blighty, he had worked with bobbies when the Metropolitan Police had found suspicious packages. This was, however, the first time that he’d been working with proctologists.*

  19. Ah. This brings back lots of fun memories from my time as an EMT.

    I remember one Russian teenager had 6 acorns up his rectum that he couldn’t push out.

  22. *”The Bomb Squad has decided that the explosives are too potentially dangerous and volatile to move safely.”*

    *”They have decided to detonate it on site.”*
