The funniest thing you've ever seen on the news,

[Vindekarr]

I saw a story on the news today that made me laugh out loud. It was like something out of a very terrifying slapstick comedy:

 

Two armed robbers stole a very valuable Python snake from a pet shop in the dead of night, and ran off hoisting their prize-BUT THEN!

 

The python, unhappy about the chill night air and annoyed over being stolen, began to squirm. Pythons are very famous for their incredible muscle strength, they're beautiful creatures, but if they dont want you holding them, you wont be holding them for long. The police saw two men in a car park wearing ski masks and trying to wrestle a vehemently protesting python into a cloth sack, the python was in the process of trying the wrestle the men into the sack itself when they arrived. Arrests occured.

 

Moral of the story: DO NOT! ever try and steal something stronger than you, it'll kick your ass.

 

Then another one came up that was just as funny. Two cops had gotten out of their car to investigate a drunk man wandering down the road side. He pulled out a pair of guns, one of the cops, from the infamously trigger happy Victorian Police FOrce, shot at him, he ran for cover-the police officer's car!

 

He got in, started the engine, and raced off, in their car! DOH! This is funny not only because can you imagine the shame of radioing your superior and saying "my car's been stolen by a heavily armed drunk, please advise" But also because he as he raced away, slammed into a power pole, bounced off, hit the other alley wall, and disapeared into the night. A helicopter came and chased him, until he skidded off the road and got stuck in a hedge. By all reports he then ran screaming across a field and was arrested by riot response cops in full battle armour,

 

Moral: DO NOT, EVER, EVER, EVER leave the keys in the ignition while arresting a drunk, he may decide to go for a drive.

 

So after those two, I figured I'd see if the rest of the world was as embarrising as Australia?

There was an incident about a male doctor sucking a patient's breast, maybe around 6 months ago. The doctor defended himself by saying it was a standard procedure... riiight. It went into court, and a while ago I read from the newspaper that the doctor had won.

 

I don't know any of the background, or what did the doctor defend himself with, but I think it's clear that the decision was pretty weird.

 

So, this is probably one of the strangest things I've seen on the news.

@amoramor

 

i've read it in local newspaper too,one thing i don't understand is why the victim ( the one get sucked ) sue the doctor ,while she allow him to do that in the first place.

Not exactly news.. I turned on the TV in a moment of boredom a couple days ago, and was treated to this:

 

Sarah Palin: The tea party is not made up of whacky extremists

 

Quite literally as soon as I picked myself up off the floor after that, I got this:

 

Bill-O: You should've left [Glenn Beck] in the forest, he'd have never found his way out!

 

It still makes me laugh. Bill-O finally said something I agree 100% with. :laugh: :woot:

 

(Now, why was I on Fox in the first place? eh.. waiting for Hardball)

Another instant classic:

 

A man trying to rob a store, he puts on a Darth Vader mask to hide his face, but he puts it on infront of, and facing, a security camera! DOH!
