18. Call the plumber!
“I worked at a gym for six years… one day, an old man (65ish) came from the locker room and approached me. He said, “I don’t know what I did in there, but it won’t go down.” and walked away. I went in, and the smell hit me instantly. The stall had a turd (NO exaggeration) the size of my arm, from elbow to the fingertips. One turd. No break in the line. I was equal parts amazed and disgusted. When you flushed the toilet, the water would (try to) swirl around it and go down, revealing the monster in all of its girth.”
“We let it sit there for a couple of days to soften up so we could push it down. It stank the whole time. I have a video on one of my old cell phones. I will try and find it.” Fioricascastle summarizes with “TL;DR- some old man took a monumental crap that wouldn’t flush down the toilet” Dealing with human waste can be extremely hazardous. It may have been a good idea to call a professional plumber, in this case, to deal with the mess. With a plumber, they are knowledgeable about how to properly handle clogs.
