Its the end of the week, so how about some weird stories to tell your mates at the pub? Here are a few of the most downright odd stories of the week, handily compiled into list format for you lovely readers.

 

Drugs? Me? Never!

A man flies into from Chile Barcelona – nothing strange there. This man is wearing a cast, entirely reasonable considering he had a broken leg. The cast is made from pure cocaine. Whoa, what now?

This is indeed a true story. Even though the man’s injuries were real, investigators were stunned when they used a drug testing substance on the cast. The substance actually turned the cast itself into a shade of blue, the result of a positive test. When they tested other objects of his, they found 6 beer cans which had been emptied, filled with cocaine and resealed along with a pair of folding stools which also tested positive for the naughty powder.

He’s now in hospital after being operated on (for his leg) and I expect he will end up getting royally screwed over – after all, he was trying to smuggle in nearly 5 kilogrammes of pure cocaine. If only this had worked, and it would have been ingenious. The police even reckon the injury was inflicted on purpose to provide a cover for this audacious attempt!

 

Give me all your money! Here’s my card.

This story again proves how stupid some criminals are. A man in the USA ended up getting shown up for the moron he really is when he attempted to rob a store. Halfway through the robbery, in which he claimed to have a gun and threatened the cashier, someone else walked in the store and the quick-thinking clerk decided to ask the would-be robber to pay for a drink he had picked up.

Entirely unbidded, the man handed over his debit card to pay. Apparently he realised how much of an idiot he had been and signed the receipt ‘John Doe’ before buggering off without a single penny. Needless to say, it didn’t tax the police too much to track the owner of the card down and arrest him. When questioned, he claimed he was joking when he attempted to rob the store. One word: idiot.

 

Man finds cliff, falls down it twice

A man went for a walk with his wife, only to end up falling down the side of a cliff, landing 20 feet down on a bunch of rocks and trees. His wife then managed to rescue him, bring him back to where they had been and then decided to try and look for help. As she turned away, he decided that he really needed to stand up again. As he did, he ended up losing his balance again and fell down the same cliff, landing in the same spot, causing him further injuries. In the end he had a broken nose, hurt his back and bled a lot.

The funnier bit is that his wife was collared by police after the event, as she had run to a friend’s house and when she found that they weren’t in, smashed her way through a window to get in to use their phone. The friends haven’t pressed charges.

Just goes to show that anything you can do once out of accident can happen again out of stupidity…
