Pointless Experiments

Not my experiment
although I have some which I will post later.
Many years ago my mate and three of his chums went hiking/hillwalking up in the highlands of Scotland for a week. They decided that rather than stay in a hotel, it would be cheaper and better to rent a house for the week. This they did.
On the first night someone suggested it would be fun to see how long they could go without flushing the toilet. Beer was involved by this point, so they all decided this was a great idea, being unable to think it through properly.
Well, four strapping lads generate quite a bit of shitteous effluent, so after only three days the toilet bowl was full nearly to the brim. At this point they decided that the experiment was complete, and wrote '3 days' in their lab books, or whatever.
And flushed.
A standard toilet cistern has a 9 litre capacity. Approximately 8.8 litres of this ended up, mixed with festering man-shite, on the bathroom floor. I did mention that they hadn't thought it through...
The blockage was eventually cleared by the industrious application of sticks which they found outside. But they didn't enjoy cleaning up the mess on the floor.
Remember, would-be scientists - plan ahead!
