A passenger on a French train had to be rescued by firemen after having his arm sucked down the on-board toilet.

The 26-year-old victim was trapped when he tried to fish out his mobile phone, which had fallen into the toilet bowl, and fell foul of the suction system. The high-speed TGV train had to stop for two hours while firemen cut through the train's pipework.

The man was carried away by emergency services, with the toilet still attached to his arm. "He came out on a stretcher, with his hand still jammed in the toilet bowl, which they had to saw clean off," said Benoit Gigou, a witness to the man's plight.

The incident happened on Sunday evening, aboard a train travelling in western France between La Rochelle and Paris.

Retrieving a mobile phone sounds reasonable... but I don't think this guy should have tried to wash his feet... that was just asking for trouble :p

It's hard to belive that some of these stories actually happen, but after talking to a friend who works in A&E it seems there are lots of strange things happen!

Whilst a friend was doing his A&E rotation before becoming a GP he had someone come in with a fishing hook caught on the end of his (rhymes with dock!). Seems it got caught their whilst he was preparing a fly fishing hook! Why it happened so no one knows but it did cause a lot of pain to remove. All this whilst the guy was dressed in a leather gimp suit!!!!!!
