Your Biggest What the ... moment.

[Deleted]

So I went and read the whole thread. Some funny stuff in here.

Here's mine, and I'm rather sad it'll end up on Pg 7 ;(

TLDR: - got drunk, got picked up by the police for entering someone's house and sleeping on their bed. Was released, walked for 3-50ish minutes... smashed through a glass door and slept naked in the middle of a gym.

So anyway, Id just arrived in South Korea, and I decided to check out Seoul and get some drinks into me. My friend and I went out and started on the Soju (which is only 21%, but its shotted and sooo easy to drink). Id been wandering around Seoul all day, so I was really tired, but I wanted to have a big night anyway.

I dont remember much of the night, and I thought most of it was a dream initially... but at one point, I got REALLY tired and drunk and just wanted to go to bed. I was wandering around Seoul alone, having lost my mate somewhere and I find a building that looks kinda like mine. Up the stairs I go and down the hall to where my apartment should have been. Opened the unlocked door and walked in.... This is where everything gets really blurry, cause I briefly remember wondering why there was a Korean dude playing computer in my house. But I just wanted to sleep.

Next memory... I'm being hit.... in the foot.

I wake up on a bed and there are 4 policemen standing around me... and one of them is smacking me in the foot to wake me up (wtf?!) Thankfully I didn't clock the bastard... I still had no idea what was going on. They picked me up and took me out of the building... all the while, turns out my mate had been calling my cell looking for me. The police spoke to him and he was allowed to come pick me up (thank fuck - drunkenness is very common in Korea, so it wasn't a big issue).

My friend comes and we try to find a place to sleep (no trains at that hour). I apparently just started walking... (discovered the next day that I was 5 train stops Away from where we drank). I find another building that looks really familiar and up I go again. Till I hit a glass door anyway.

I'm so drunk that I cant figure out why I cant get into my house. So I'm slamming myself against this invisible wall and finally, the invisible wall gives way and in I go. Nevermind that my house looks like a gym. I strip down and take a shower, then crash in the middle of the floor. My friend called the police and told them what happened and they told him just to "leave me there and bring me to the station tomorrow". So he went home.

I wake up thinking wtf happened.... realise I'm not at home, and all the bits and pieces of memories come flooding back. I thought it was insane... until I stood up and saw the glass door I had destroyed. How I didn't cut myself to pieces on it I'll never understand. So I went to the police station with my friend and they found the owner of the gym (thankfully they didn't open on Sunday mornings). I went back to the gym and helped remove all the glass. They had someone come to get a price for the door. In Australia, it would have cost me 200-400dollars to replace that. But prices are very different here in Korea, and It was $110. I gave the guy $150 and apologised again.

Anyway.... my WTF moment.... In Aust I think Id have been up on break and enter charges or something.


I have never had a serious drinking night on Soju since.

hahaha thats pretty damn crazy!

Oh! That would be this morning. I rent out an apartment that's essentially the old master bedroom of someone's house, with a separate entrance. Well, there's only a thin door separating my kitchen from their upstairs, where their daughter lives (she's 8 or 9 I think). I'm laying in bed this morning, sleeping off a stomach flu, and all of a sudden I hear yelled outside my kitchen door:

"MOMMY. THERE'S BLOOD IN MY POOP. COME LOOK, QUICK."

I wish I were kidding.

Probably the time that I was in a public bathroom washing my hands. This kid I can only describe as "odd" goes to the urinal, and right after taking a piss walks over to the hand drier w/o washing his hands. After he walked out I'm pretty sure I verbally said "WHAT THE FUCK!?!?" to myself. It was terrible...

[jikimiki]

when i was 10 my friends dad was shooting off some fire works and i cant remember the name, but 1 out of the 5 that were going off tipped over shooting a ball of fire at least 1 inch from my head and got my friend right in the leg.

Another was when i was riding my bike in the winter and i wasn't paying attention so i hit a ice patch and slipped. It didnt hurt but i was like WTF how did i get here.

[frank2312]

I once saw someone fall because of a carpet... no-one was around him 0.o

[Geckomayhem]

I read every response in here. So many insane stories. o.O

When we were teenagers, my friends and I got up to some mischief. Some of it involved fireworks (couple posts above me reminded me of this).

One time - and this isn't really a WTF moment - but my best mate and I had a roman candle fight on a golf course. He shot me right in the neck and it left a burn mark for a couple of weeks. >.<

Another time we were up the top of this hill playing around with fireworks. I started shooting into these bushes and one gorse bush caught on fire. It went out soon after, and we left in a hurry. Saw the cops coming up from the other side of the hill from the road (there was a walkway that ran up), so we stashed our bag and continued nonchalantly walking down the main road. Pretty soon a cop car came up and they questioned us about seeing anything suspicious - but since we didn't have anything on us they couldn't do anything. I went back up the next day to retrieve my bag from where I'd hidden it.

On an unrelated note, aside from the fact that this also happened when I was a teenager: some friends of mine (identical twins) had a BB gun. This one time, one of them shot this fly on a fence about 5 metres away. It squished the fly into the fence. Was epic and such a Buffy the Vampire Slayer moment.

Actually, come to think of it, those twins were pretty f'ed up. They did heaps of crazy shit. We used to shoot arrows past each other because they made swooshing sounds; and one of them rode his unicycle up this mountain bike track. They also used to beat each other with fly swats and bamboo sticks. The nineties were fun.

BTW, that feeling of being unable to move and you can't shake yourself fully awake that someone mentioned on page 1 or 2 - that happens to a lot of people. It can be pretty freaky because you can't call out and you just can't do anything but hope that the oppressive feeling isn't going to come and start strangling you. :/

my biggest WTF moment also turned out to be one of the best days ever. i was in vegas for a medical convention(im a paramedic), was there for 3 weeks. my flight gets delayed , so instead of landing back home at 3pm, i land at 11pm. i hop in my car, drive home. all the doors are locked and the lights are off, i unlock the door, go in, throw everything down, lock the door and decide im goin to bed. i open my bedroom door to see my GF and 2 of her friends in my bed. i was like O.O . then they asked if i wanted to join in, WHO HELL HELL WOULDNT?


the second closest happened 4 years ago. i was doing my ride alongs to become a paramedic. on one run, we got dispatched to a collapsed highschool student. we get to the school, and are being escorted to the student. when we arrived, the student was unresponsive. we do a preliminary check on em, get them on to the stretcher, and start wheeling them out when they scream "CHEESY POOFS". we get them to the hospital, and as we are leaving, another outburst was heard "POT PIE". still dont know what was wrong with the kid, if anything. and no they were not faking it, as we applied painfull stimuli to them(which makes most fakers react) and they remained unresponsive.

Several years ago, when I was 12 or so, I was woken up by a pretty bad thing. I wake up to see: A figure standing in the corner of my room. There was an ear splitting scream, quickly followed by my bedroom door, closet door, and window all opening and slamming shut at the same time. Nobody else in my house heard a thing.

I can remember only 2 such moments right now:

1. Wow-related : We used to do a lot of Zul Gurub with my vanilla guild. After a while we got our first Hakkar kill. We had master loot on, so we had to start rolling for the items. I was a mage at the time and I really wanted the heart of hakkar so I could get the trinket. So, we started rolling for the heart, I see 15-18 rolls, with a couple of them being 90+. Leader is about to give the heart to the highest roller and suddenly one of our hunters yells "WAIT" then he says "I am sorry guys, but I am going to roll 100 and win this". Nobody believed it at the time until we saw it pop in the chat log.... he really did roll 100 and won the first Heart of Hakkar in our guild. Luckily, I got mine a couple of weeks later, but I will never forget what that hunter did.

2. RL story, about a year ago. I had this old rusty bike I used to drive. The spring had just started so I had been driving that bike for about 1 month that year. One day I ride the bike to university, have some lessons and then I got really thirsty. I decide to ride the bike to the nearest shop and buy myself a cola or something. I start riding and I accelerate very close to the maximum speed of the bike. Suddenly the steering rod gets detached from the bike itself and I find myself flying in the air. I landed on my shoulder somehow. Had wounds and blood on my palm, elbow and shoulder (no idea how I managed to hit all 3 with 1 fall). Worse part is that it happened very close to the bus stop where 20-30 people were waiting. Most disturbing part is not even one of them tried to hep, I had to drag the remains of the bike out of the road with 1 hand while still in shock from the fall. My right palm is still messed up and I can't do push-ups on it anymore. I never rode a bike again since that day.

And wow.. That is some pretty scary shit!

Reminds me when I was a kid, I forgot to pull the curtains in my room when i went to bed (think i was like 7'ish or so). And I woke up cause someONE was outside my window and looked really creepy, so I jumped out of bed and wanted to run into my parents bedroom wich was right next to mine. When I got to the hallway, that someone was standing in the house right by the frontdoor, and as i went over to open my parents door, i was just knocked over so i literally flew into their bedroom, and My mom has no idea what happened.. But the front door was open when i told her someone wa sin the house o_o !

i was like 8 years old and home alone for 1 hour while playing GTA 2 on my pc.
Suddenely i heard a small explosion. So i was like WTF!? I checked the room didn't see anything strange. Walked back to my pc checking my screen and it was frozen. So i looked at my pc and i found out that the whole CD for GTA 2 exploded and small pieces were all over the room! So called my mom all crying that the pc exploded :P
Later we found the front of the CD-Player 5 meters away from the pc

For about 6 years ago, when I was about 10 I was climbing in a tree at school in my break(It was summer during that time). Suddenly a small part broke off, and I started falling, 2 secs later I had my hand at some other part of the tree.
I was a bit like... wow...

[reverendball]

the day my old ball mouse burst into flames


O_O
theres not even anything in it that should be capable of burning, let alone ignition

[critterkiller]

Driving home from work, only to get the cops on me with sirens and lights. i pull over and i can feel a "breath" going down my spine. only to see the cop car stop infront of me and then drive of again, without anyone police talking to me. O.o

well the reason i was afraid was that i had "snuff" (a tobacco product) that has 18 year limit and i was 16 at the time :O

When I was a kid, I once dreamed I was at the home of my grandmother. I was reading a book, when she called for dinner. I wanted to go out of the room, but walked into the table, breaking some glasses and plates. Then, the dream drifted away.
In the next morning, I woke up and find my forehead hurts, and something had broken the shelves at the wall besides the door. Seems like I had sleepwalked, and crashed into the wall ...
