Trapped in the bathroom!

door
Philippines
September 25, 2016 11:09pm CST
It was just another ordinary day for me again, and I thought things are gonna get bored as usual. When all of a sudden after having a relief, I couldn't get the door open. I push and pull, there was no effect. I opened the shaft that was under me but I couldn't get out, it was too small. So, I shout instead but I thought no one couldn't hear me. I tried to budge the door open, finally grandma came out and call the others. Finally, Mom called her friends to help my open the door, one actually brought his own tools and a replacement door. I could say that it's a blessing in disguise, because it could have happened to every one else when no one's around. Next week I think will be another busy week. The door knob's mechanism got rusted that it got stuck when I tried to open it. Turns out they all thought it was a ghost calling them in the kitchen, which kinda upsets me. But I was glad it was over.

It is a scary feeling being locked in a small room. Glad they finally realized it wasn't a ghost.

That was such a difficult situation. It happened to me too in a restroom while as I was on board a ship. I was stuck there for almost an hour. I was so afraid because the ship is about to dock and the people are all getting ready to embark. I was lucky an old woman came to use the restroom too.

Hello @magallon Can you imagine getting stuck there when the ship is sinkin, I mean what could have been worse. It's a good thing you got out, remember always have your phone or some small tool knife just in case.

My bathroom door was hard to turn a few times. But i never was trapped in there. I finally got tired of it being like that so I sprayed WD-40 on the door jam and it worked. It's very easy now to open.

Hello @JESSY3236 I don't have this kind of product at home and it turns out the mechanism was already jammed because it's already rusted. Hope you get yours replaced soon.

LOL! I find it very funny. But seriously speaking its very unusual and uncomfortable to be lock in the comfort room. Lucky for you that there are people around that would help you to get out of the comfort room. Good for you, you are not claustrophobic, you might get nervous and collapse in the process. As to why your relatives mistake you for a ghost.. for me that’s still a mystery.

Well, It was good that it happened to me instead rather having my relatives or visitors suffered for it @tragicpoet I felt all alone in there. I was lucky that they were there but mistook me for a ghost.
