The Terror of Toliets

article image placeholderUploaded by @Urbanlegends
Scientists have used lasers to find out how far water flush droplets travel from a toilet. Flush. Hear about it on Urban Legends and Stranger Truths. Family bathrooms can get pretty gross and fast, but it turns out even the most immaculate of bathrooms is not safe from toilet water contamination. That according to a new study. Scientists use used lasers to track how much toilet water is flung from the toilet bowl and into the air during a flush. And the results are pretty gross

It's just reminders that we forget things, that history is often lost to the past. I don't know. I just it's strange. I'm sort of rambling at you, but I'm curious if there's a date on that study, if you will

And believe it or not, actually here in Wisconsin, at the Kohler foundry in Shabboygan, Wisconsin, they study these things extensively. Now, Mr. Professor Kemaldi was not there at that location. He's actually out in Colorado. But it is surprising, the things that they do study to make themselves better at what they do. Thank you for your question

So now I just feel like I don't like public restrooms as is, so if I can help it, I'd rather wait till I get home, unless it's just a dire situation. But now I feel like they need a suggestion box outside these bathrooms, because I need to tell them that they need seats, because I need to be able to flush and not have my life at risk from somebody else's poop particles to take that step further. Their diet could be horrible
