To ask your most WTF moments

[latheritup]

We went to the zoo recently and was walking down to the tiger enclosure. We saw a man had jumped over the fence into the greenery to retrieve his glasses that 'fell off' and subsequently the tigers all came to the front of their enclosure.

I can't think why he wouldn't ask a zookeeper to safely get them or was he just trying to get the tigers closer for a better pic?! Either way my face was

I've attached a wonderful diagram. Very proud of it

Driving over the south downs, pretty deserted roads, DH burst out laughing as the car that had just gone past was driven by a clown.

What really made us laugh was imagining if we had had some collision, and saying "well we were just driving along minding our own business when some clown pulled out of a junction . . ."

I can do better than a diagram. I have photos of mine. Walking to work through the City of London, very sleep deprived as I was working full time with a non-sleeping baby, a dead dinosaur drove past me on the back of a lorry.

I must have just been asleep, surely?

If it was dead they would have at least put pennies on its eyes, and most probably have covered its face with the sheet.

Snap!!

Driving home one evening we passed a gateway marked with two low pillars and stone owls mounted on top. Casually leaning next to one of the pillars was the biggest (real) owl I've ever seen.
I stopped, reversed back and the owl just swivelled it's head and stared at me before lazily taking off.

Re; clowns driving cars.

I used to work for McDonald's and when we'd have a visit from Ronald he'd turn up in full costume and makeup which I can only assume he put on at home before travelling.

I once saw a tank being driven along the seafront with L plates on.

our 16st Great Dane

Wow!

That's a big dog!

Our dane is 14 st and is considered big - the vet said he was the largest dane he'd seen.

I was waiting to cross the road near a roundabout. From the opposite direction a staffie came tearing round the corner. The staffie was attached to a lead and on the other end of the lead was a bloke (adult) sitting in the bottom half of a Little Tikes Cosy Coupe.

I was so stunned that by the time I thought to get my phone out to take a picture they were miles away.

I love that. I wonder how the hell he fitted himself in?

Many years ago I was teaching in a secondary school on the edge of farmland. By the side of my classroom was a sort of wide corridor of land before there was a fence. One day, my class were all working with their heads down and I saw some very muddy dogs racing by really close to the window - really filthy mud spattered hounds. They were followed shortly after by men on horseback wearing hunting clothes. It was all over in a flash and none of the children saw anything at all. I was definitely left thinking wtf...

@GabsAlot was it Bob?

Many years ago on a saturday afternoon in summer I looked out of my window to see a young woman pushing a baby in a buggy storming up the road, a few paces behind her was a man running to catch her up, he was completely starkers and his cock was flip flopping from side to side as he ran. It was a sight to behold.

@Mercedes519

I was walking along the road and a pigeon flew up in front of a bald bloke. He, without missing a beat, punched it. Pigeon fluttered off seemingly unhurt. Man walk on without any change to his facial expression.

There was that moment of - did I really just see that?

Hilarious- that's sooo funny!!!!

@Yarboosucks

I decided to make my son laugh by putting my head in a big bin of soft toys in IKEA. I over-balanced and ended up head first in the bin with my feet in the air. My son actually exclaimed "WTF!"

These are so funny!

15 or so years ago, driving very late at night on the A381 (deepest rural Devon) we passed a man in full evening dress. This road is miles from the nearest village. He was alone. There’s no pavement or street lights, so it was just a glimpse, but he was definitely there as we both saw him.

We often drive that route, but never saw him again. I hope he made it home.

Was in the middle of a c-section. The operation table was a fancy modern electric one where it raises, falls, tilts in all directions. Suddenly I say “I’m going to fall off “ everyone tells me it’s the anaesthetic. Then they realise. The table won’t stop tilting to the right. Suddenly everyone who isn’t important to the operation is holding on. The theatre manager, nurses, students, partner, midwives. Someone is on the phone to a technician who comes in and frantically turns it off and hand cranks it back to normal!

We were in the countryside, driving in incredibly thick fog, couldn’t see hardly in front of us. Out of nowhere a gigantic white owl appears and swoops, flys up across bonnet and windscreen and disappears.
It was very creepy at the time.

I once encountered the Wizard Man of Sutton, who walks around wearing wizard robes and carrying a staff. He wouldn't look out-of-place in a Harry Potter movie, but instead he was outside Asda. At the time I had no idea who he was - it was so strange that I ended up googling 'Sutton wizard' afterwards!

My cat had killed a bat, which had a baby (still naked) hanging on to her. I took the baby, got advice, and raised it (on goats milk on a paintbrush, fed every four hours). I had to get a special Bat Handling licence in order to keep him! Once he had his fur, he used to hang up against my skin inside my clothes to keep warm.

He went to a bat sactuary in the end because obviously he never learned to hunt. He was adorable.[/quote]

Awwww! That's very cute! And kind hearted of you. I was about to post and ask WHY??! so thanks for this. 🌹

actually would be very cool walking round with a bat ive done it with baby birds and hedgehogs we have rescued tucked in your cleavage is the best place to keep them

years ago my cousin used to walk round where i lived in Herefordshire dressed as an old fashioned undertaker complete with top hat and long tail coat. I spose these days people would class him as goth but this was long before then an people used to stop an stare!
another woman used to walk round with a big python trailed round her neck
at a car boot last year there was a woman with a parrot sat on top of her van very bizarre

When I was about 16 I was waiting for my friend on a bench in the town where we lived. An elderly man sat down next to me and started throwing breadcrumbs for the pigeons, a few gathered round and were pecking at the ground, without missing a beat he bent down, grabbed a pigeon, wrung it's neck, put it under his jacket and then turned to me, winked and said 'pigeon pie for tea'..... I was HORRIFIED!

@IncludeWomenInTheSequel

I used to live next to a homeless shelter.

Woke up to a racket one night, looked out the window and half a dozen guys from the shelter were sitting and singing the Club biscuits advert jingle in really loud operatic voices, harmonising and everything.

If you LIIIIIIKE a lot of chocolate on your biscuit

Love it 🤣🤣🤣

DP and I merrily working away putting up roof trusses in our extension and I spotted someone just coming down the path.
Well dressed older fellow - nice overcoat, tie and polished shoes - comes into the house and out to where we were. Blood all over his clothes and dripping from his head. In a lovely cultured voice asked if we could possibly assist him so we called an ambulance. Couldn't actually get too much sense from him. Turned out he'd had some sort of heart problem, fallen over and hit his head outside the house.

@HereForTheTinsel

This is a great thread, I've laughed out loud at many! I have lots but my favorite was my mum on holiday in Switzerland. She went out for a ride on the bus and spotted a "castle" entered it, enjoyed some lunch and singing to then realise she'd wandered in to an old people's home!!

That's brilliant 😆

This happened to a friend.

He had been invited by a colleague, Alex, to stay the night, before an early start for a long journey the following day.

He rang the bell and a stranger (presumably Alex's housemate) answered the door. My friend asked whether Alex was in, and the housemate said no, so my friend entered the house and sat down in the living room to watch the footy with Alex's housemate. After a while, the housemate offered my friend a beer.

About an hour later, my friend's colleague rang him to ask where he was. It transpired that my friend had gone to the wrong house. He thanked the stranger for the beer, and left.
