1. Shaving the pipes (Toronto, Ont., Canada): Roto-Rooter’s Adam Kolnik tried to clear a blockage in a toilet, but when his cable went through the drain, the entire toilet began vibrating. The object turned out to be an electric razor, which the customer believes was knocked into the toilet by his cat. Apparently, the cable bumped the razor’s power switch inside the pipe and turned it on.

2. Music from the deep (Youngstown, Ohio): After several minutes trying to unclog a toilet, plumber Sam Perry pulled back an expensive MP3 music player that had lodged in the toilet’s trap. The customer’s teenage son was angry with his parents so he purposefully flushed the MP3 player that had been a gift from them.
