Now, there was no need for that...Tell us about the times when an already difficult situation has been made worse for no good reason. Pollollups writes, "As if being given a muscle relaxant and trapped in an MRI tube wasn't bad enough: whilst thus immobilised, they played me Dido."

piste offA couple of guys I know were snowboarding in Switzerland. They went off-piste and the berks ended up falling down a very deep crevasse. They survived, but both broke most of their bones and spent a long time down there in agony and terror before a helicopter came and rescued them.
But this was just the beginning of their ordeal. Since they had gone off the designated piste, their insurance didn't cover their substantial medical bills. Nor did it cover the cost of the helicopter call-out, billed at almost 100 quid per minute of flying time.
