Freakish Facts |
In Hampshire, a 70 year old woman was trapped in her toilet for six hours when her cats knocked over furniture which blocked the outward opening door. In Newquay, two men fastened a ball and chain around the ankle of a woman who had been complaining about them playing football too close to her. Telephone inventor, Alexander Graham Bell was so terrified of the moon's rays that he blacked out the windows in his home. Sunbather Daniel Jones was so fed up of the wind that he dug himself an 8-foot hole to sit in. When the hole collapsed, burying him beneath 5 feet of sand, it took rescue workers almost an hour to free him while about 200 people looked on. |
