 Drunken Man Sends Mayday As Bathtub Boat Sinks | | By: BizarreNews | Published: 01/30/2000 | | |  |

COPENHAGEN, Denmark - In what has to be one of the most bizarre pleas for help, a Danish man set off a real life sea rescue mission while playing with toy ships in his bathtub. The drunk 52-year-old called in repeated mayday alarms to the Maritime Sea Rescue Command as he piloted his water toys, claiming he was captain of a 12-crew freighter in distress. Giving a position west of the Baltic Sea island of Bornholm, which belongs to Denmark, he said his vessel was listing 45 degrees and that one crew member had been washed overboard. Authorities leaped to respond, sending two rescue vessels to search the area for 90 minutes. Police eventually traced the phone calls to the home of the intoxicated man, who admitted the false alarm.

My job in the Military is that of rescue... carrying a wide assortment of weaponry and gear used for getting into the most god awlful places to rescue someone. If it requires jumping out of planes, rock climbing, or going behind enemy lines. The point is this; We do not like pranks to the point that deadly force is often suggested as an option along with the notion of beating the living crap out of that individual that called in the prank.
One day the chlorine will take affect in the gene pools... hopefully soon enough.
