Woman trapped in window trying to retrieve poo

LONDON: A Tinder date in Bristol ended in a bizarre fashion after the woman he met got wedged upside down in a narrow gap between two windows while retrieving her faeces.
A dramatic online account of the events by the date, Bristol University postgraduate student Liam Smyth, prompted some to ask if the story was a hoax.
But Avon fire and rescue service confirmed that it had rescued the woman and backed Smyth's story.
"It is one of those things of reality being stranger than fiction," a spokesman said.
Despite the inglorious finale of their first date on Aug 7, the couple have already met again, Smyth told the BBC on Wednesday.
The date began at a restaurant and continued with them watching a film and drinking a bottle of wine at his home.
It took an odd turn after the unidentified woman used the toilet and was unable to flush, Smyth wrote.
"She returned with a panicked look in her eye, and told me she had something to tell me," he said.
To avoid embarrassment, the woman said she had thrown the faeces out of a window, unaware that there was a second window behind it.
"Being an amateur gymnast, she was convinced that she could reach into the window and pull the poo out," Smyth said.
She did eventually retrieve it with his help, but he was forced to call the fire service after he was unable to pull her out of the gap between the windows.
Smyth posted photographs of a woman trapped upside down between two windows and of firefighters freeing her.
One of the firefighters who rescued her, Chris Crothers, said he found the woman "well and truly stuck, with her face squashed against the glass".
Smyth set up a Gofundme page on Tuesday to ask for £200 (RM842) in donations to repair the broken window.
Smyth had raised more than £2,000 by Wednesday. He pledged to give the cash to charities after he received several offers to repair the window free of charge.
Smyth told the BBC he had met the woman again and they were getting along well, describing her as "very lovely".
"And we've already gotten the most difficult stuff out of the way first," he said. – dpa
