Man Gets Stuck in Sewer Pipe for Two Days After Chasing $20 Bill

That stinks.

A rather unfortunate fellow in Oklahoma has taken An Unexpected Journey. But not through Middle Earth. Oh, no…he’s taken a 2-day excursion into a storm drain, after his $20 bill somehow got away from him. The man soon found himself trapped 12-15 feet below street level, crying out for hours on end in the soggy dark, before some high school students heard his call.

He no longer remembers exactly how or when he ended up in the hole.

In fact, we may never know precisely how he made his way down into the city’s sewers, but I can tell you that the man’s $20 bill has likely been lost forever. Does that make it a happy ending? I’m not exactly sure. But let it be a lesson to you all not to develop tunnel vision when you see dollar signs.
