Getting my willie caught in a zipper was weird!
Didn't know whether to caryy on and pull the zip up and hope to "fall" out of the teeth or to pull it down..
I didn't half make a funny squeeky sound when when the zip was yanked down....
Terrifying, painful experience - hopefully never to be repeated...

I can turn beer into urine.
The only experience I've ever had with a ghost was a poltergiest.

After I'd spent a good night converting beer, I woke up and the bugger had broken a load of glasses, must've hit me around the head a few times and then put ectoplasm all down the front of my t-shirt!

Yup, he must carry you about, the number of times I've woken up miles away from my last 'conversion' ... :-)

My mates wound up a fellow diver that the captain of the Hispania haunted the wreck and had been seen by loads of divers. It then dawned on the guys buddy (at 20 odd meters) that it maybe wasnt a good idea to have a buddy scared shitless..........

Apparently people have heard strange noises on the Mohegan, groans and such like, but I've not.

However a funny thing happened last year, we heard what we thought was a diver recall, and both my buddy and I heard it so we surfaced and met another pair on the surface who had also heard it, but it was not our boat and there were no others close.

Not so much something that's happened to me, more something I can do.

I can push my nose completely into my face, totally flat, no protruding bone bit. Sideways on it looks like I have no nose. Normally freaks people out when I show them.

..I'm available for weddings, birthdays, bar mitzvahs....
