Talking Weird but amusing..........

When his .38-caliber revolver failed to fire at its intended victim during a holdup in Long Beach, California, robber James Elliot did something that can only inspire wonder: he peered down the barrel and tried the trigger again. Happily for most concerned, this time it worked.
--
The chef at a hotel in Switzerland lost a finger in a meat cutting machine and, after a little hopping around, submitted a claim to his insurance company. The company, suspecting negligence, sent out one of its men to have a look for himself. He tried the machine out and lost a finger. The chef's claim was approved!

Mourners at the funeral of Anna Bochinsky in Moinesti, Romania, were naturally somewhat taken aback when she abruptly leapt from her coffin as it was being carried to the grave. Before they could react to this unexpected outburst, the woman bounded into the nearest road, where she was run over and killed by a passing car.

A man who shovelled snow for an hour to clear a space for his car during a blizzard in Chicago returned with his vehicle to find a woman had taken the space. Understandably, he shot her dead.

One of the criteria by which Miss Nude USA was chosen in 1979 was taste in clothing.

After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus driver found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be transporting from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit his incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus-stop and offered everyone in the queue a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to the mental hospital, telling the staff that the patients were very excitable and prone to bizarre fantasies. The deception wasn't discovered for 3 days.


hmm must try last one

To follow on from that last one, in a study in the 70s or 80s, researchers (with no mental illness) presented themselves to psychiatric hospitals saying they heard a voice saying one word ("bang" or "thud" or something, from memory). They described no other symptoms, and the "voice" "disappeared" a day or so after they went in. However, most or all of them were diagnosed with schizophrenia, and treated accordingly.









...the staff were not at all pleased when the deception was revealed.

This one is so far out there, its hard to believe. You would think after a couple days of embalming fluid (and no internal organs) she'd have a hard time getting up.

While it wasn't in Chicago, I had someone do that to me after I shovelled out for about an hour. I was so f'n pissed off that after she walked away, I spend an hour burying her car back in the snow (making sure to stuff as much slush in her exhaust pipe as possible so it could freeze and crack it.
