Go to the circus, laugh at the clowns, and then go home and have nightmares about them. That's entertainment.

Is the world ready for Holby City Uncensored?
Lurking somewhere on the net is a forum for A&E workers where they swap stories of the bizarre insertions they've encountered, and the patients' explanations for same... not an urban legend, I fell across it in a Google search one time and have never seen it since.
But how vividly I remember one nurse's account of the bloke who came in with an empty jam jar wedged up his arse, and how they got it out...
The process involved sliding a stick into the jar and then piping wet plaster of paris in to set it into place. Once the plaster had set, they were able to use the stick as a handle and work the jar out.
One drawback for the patient. As plaster of paris sets, it generates heat...
Oh dear! I wonder what kind of novel/story/screenplay you must be researching now, Steve, to have turned up such information during your research! ;)
It was an innocent search for "gas explosions", honest.
It certainly wasn't the kind of gas explosion I was looking for...
Looks like you've found a plot for the season finale for THE ELEVENTH HOUR. :-)

It probably won't surprise you to learn HOUSE used this phenomenon as an element in one episode.
