US bobsledder forced to smash thru Sochi bathroom door
2/8/2014 2:42pm by John Aravosis 11 Comments
The potty problems continue in Sochi, Russia, as a US Olympic team bobsledder, Johnny Quinn, was forced to smash through a bathroom door that wouldnt open, after he was trapped inside with no phone and thus no way to reach anyone for help.
Quinn had just taken a shower in his Sochi hotel room bathroom the ones with the spy cameras when, naked and wet, he found himself trapped. The door wouldnt open.
Having no cell phone, and no way to let anyone know he was trapped in a room INSIDE his room, he had no alternative but to bust through the door.

Upon edit: I don't think that's chicken wire... It's some sort of metallic honeycomb material that I've never seen before.

(4,876 posts)The consensus on the bottom right was "no shooting up in the bathroom".. My son thought it meant don't get drunk in the bathroom.
I'm not sure about the standing up one either.. Is it "no standing" or "no peeing with the lid down?"
