Man super-glued to toilet seat
A man was taken to hospital with a toilet attached to his bum after pranksters smeared super-glue over the seat.
The 35-year-old had been using a public loo in Brierley Hill in the West Midlands when he became stuck.
Firefighters were called to free him, but when they were unable to do so removed the entire toilet and took it - with the man attached - to a nearby hospital.
Doctors used special chemicals to free him while in the ambulance rather than carrying him through the hospital on his sticky throne.
While this saved some of his blushes he was still left red-faced ... and red arsed.
An ambulance service spokesman said: "The man was using the facilities when he became stuck to the seat; it appeared as though someone had left glue on the seat.
"Despite best efforts it was not possible to remove the 35-year-old local man from his position so the man was removed from the cubicle still attached to the stainless steel toilet.
"Once free he was taken into the hospital for a check up but appeared to be none the worse for his ordeal other than, understandably, being rather embarrassed.
"The ambulance crew then took the toilet back to site where the council were due to refit it there and then."
