Top 10 Deadliest Places to Dump
With all the sweeping change taking place in China these days, it becomes difficult to notice the little things. Everyday in the news, you can find one article or another about immigration reforms, foreign business laws or the modernization of Chinese currency. However, rarely do you read about the little things, the small renovations, the negligible upgrades that are being made everyday in the Middle Kingdom. These are the changes that affect the everyday Chinese guy, or as I like to call, your average Wang. China is engaging in one of the most monumental remodeling efforts of its history. China is in the midst of a toilet revolution.
Last year, Shanghai held the World Toilet Expo in order to help the city learn how to upgrade its plumbing and restroom decor. Similarly, Beijing in 2004 began to undertake a serious bathroom renovation project to prepare for the international crowd expected to shit and piss at the 2008 Olympic games. The Chinese government feels the use of chamber pots and urban outhouses conflicts with the idea of the “new China”, a China with modern skyscrapers and state-of-the-art technological design. However, like any large-scale renovation effort, the bathroom face-lift takes time and many bathrooms in China currently are unheated, have no running water and offer no toilet paper. China is not a place where you want to have stomach problems. But neither are a bunch of other places.
The Top 10 Deadliest Places To Dump
Yes Americans, there is civilization out side USA.
I don’t think trains that run through Europe today have these holes anymore

really glad I read your top ten at work today – i think the pics you included really impressed my boss. funny and very gross.
You left out the beer squirts in a foriegn bathroom after you have finally gotten a member of the opposite sex drunk enough to sleep let you over at thier place. Your recent conquest is going to have to roll out of bed soon and take a sweet flower scented tinkle, only to find the toilet smelling like death. Not so fun…
“I think public urination is very inappropriate. Except at the million man march when protestors set our port-o-potties on fire. Then I used my stream of justice to put out the hate.” That picture of a port-o-potty is like the most beautiful port-o-potty I have ever seen. I love Flumesday. –Flume Fan 1, New York
I’d say #11 would definately be any toilet recently used by MAS.
You also forgot the toilet from Trainspotting. http://www.fugly.com/pictures/10…ing- toilet.html
When my aunt lived in France(close to the Swiss border)in the 80′s she said they still had toilets that were nothing more than holes in the ground that you squat over.
The porta potty is definatley the worst. A porta potty at a chili cookoff if straight skanky
After living in Europe for the past twenty years, I can truthfully say, that you are either ignorant or mis-informed. The trians are not like that, they are self contained. You will never see a toilet like that in Europe, only the middle east. And since I have worked in the aircraft business since I was nineteen, I know your aircraft line is “shit”, there is no standing water in aircraft toilets, there is a big holding tank for waste in the bay of the aircraft,far away from the toilet. Get your facts straight
I actually like how the trains in Europe have the toilet holes leading directly to the tracks. When I was travelling throughout Italy with a friend, we would both purposely wait until the train pulled into a station before we took a dump. Then we’d go to the middle of the train and take shits. That way our turds would be seen by everybody waiting for the next train. Truly disgusting, but HILARIOUS!
Excuse me, “Larry,” or whomever you are. . .first of all, there is no hyphen in misinformed. Secondly, it’s “trains,” not “trians.” Third, Middle East is capitalized. Fourth, he said “LACK of standing water.” Fifth, the name “Larry,” um, yeah, no offense, but it sounds totally fake to me. Just FYI. Finally, this is a humor website. The article was a joke. Get a life! –Flume Fan 1, New York
Dude, you’ve seriously never used a Port-A-Potty? I can’t believe there are people who have never felt the need to evacuate in the middle of a crowd and have been offered no other option. Amazing.
Larry, In case you hadn’t noticed, this is an attempt at pointing out the humourous and/or uncomfortable situations that might arise when nature calls.
If you’d ever made it out of your comfortable Western European trains and trekked across the former Soviet Bloc, you’d most definately encounter more than your fair share of squatter toilets that Juri The Janitor forgot to wipe clean.
Also, get your reading skills straight, #6 reads “…The LACK OF fresh air AND standing toilet water in the airplane bathroom makes this quite possibly the stinkiest entry on the countdown…”
But seriously, it sounds like hope you really enjoy scrubbing out the toilet bays at Schipol.
I’d have to say a high school bathroom is the deadliest. No one wants to take a dump with 6 or 7 high school boys throwing soda cans, wet paper towels, or pencils at you while you grunt. Now with the camera phone, I’d hate to be back there now.
My bathroom after my roommate has used it probably should be on there somewhere.
Yo Larry,
You gotta chill out man. I know that as far as you’re concerned Americans are a bunch of dumbasses. I’m very aware of this, since I am constantly surrounded by Americans (such as FlumeFan1 who seems to think that an effective way of making you look stupid is to go on an editing tear concerning your comment). The problem with a lot of Euros is that they are unable to distinguish dumbass Americans from American humor. Yes, we are pretty sophmoric sometimes but the fact is that we have pretty much cornered the sense of humor market. Unlike you, we have the ability to both laugh at ourselves and others. So instead of reading into this as ignorance followed by trying to prove TheFlume wrong by flaunting your expertise concerning toilets on airplanes, just take it for what is…a joke. You don’t have to take everything so personally. If you don’t want Americans to continue to believe that all Euros have an inferiority complex (which is not true), then stop behaving like you have one. Ignorant? Give me a fucking break.
Hey! Dan W! Who you calling a dumbass? By the way, it’s “sophomoric.” –Flume Fan 1, New York
The Ferryboats in Puget Sound ought to be included in the Rock and Roll category.
Way to be on top of the typos FlumeFan1. I’m not saying you’re a dumbass (at least not definitively), especially if you are Flume’s number one fan. But come on, make actual points instead of line-checking people’s comments. Otherwise, you come off as elitist and sanctimonious. I’m sure you have more to offer intellectually if you’re so good at correcting spelling and grammar.
I guess you guys have never been camping huh? I’ve seen worse than these by far. Outhouses in poor condition, filled with bugs and hornet’s nests, a 20 holer in upstate NY, an experimental electric toilet in a state park in NH. By far the worst was the public outhouse in Reversing Falls NB that was filled with crap 6″ higher than the seat.
And most bar bathrooms are beyond usable by 1am anywhere. Puke crusted, piss soaked, and targeted by folks who miss on purpose, they make the Trainspotting toilet look great in comparison.
Settle down children. Do not let Euro Larry tear this family apart. And Larry, if you come back to read this: Bullshit about the train toilet in Europe. I used a toilet like that in 2002 from Brussels to Paris. It may have actually been nastier than the one in the photo. What’s also funny about your comment Larry is that a guy who takes things so seriously saw a link on a website that said, “Top 10 Deadliest Places to Dump” and clicked on it.
Hasn’t anyone here been in the military?
Nice Work
How bout Jail.
I’m going to have to go with the puke-encrusted toilet seats in the freshman dorms of any large college, particularly on Sunday mornings after a night of heaving binging.
I go back and forth to thailand quite a bit. Maybe because it is Pattaya Beach and not bangkok. You see hardly any squat toilets in that city. Mostly in low income apartments and low rent buisnesses.
But this particular porta potty has a vase. With pretty purple flowers in it!
And, it’s cleaner than any I’ve ever used before. It’s the KING of porta potties. Though I’ve got to agree that gas station bathrooms are pretty bad.
We may be going to Poland next year for 18 months–anyone know the potty situation there?
No way Work is #4 on that list. Wouldn’t even make the top 10. Nothing like going to the work crapper and stinking up the joint. Then look for people you knows shoes and start making some grunting noise, fart noises you name it.
You forgot the outhouses (or shithouses) in rural areas.
I don’t know if European trains still have those loos but Indian Railways sure do. If you have travveled in long distance Indina Trains you will find those train loos. U will be lucky if the tank has water. and the flush tube will spray water without focus. Sometimes people miss the target and leave some poo poo on the foot platforms, the flush will never get it. Some times small kids who are too scared to squat over the hole, fearing they’l just fall thru (thats a real scare) just poop on the floor. You’l also find the Thailand type squat loos in India a lot. And we have a real water problem okay! So if ur in some crappy place, like a railway station or a bus station or a public loo there is already some poopoo in the hole to give ur poo poo some company.
In indian cities, like Mumbai the people who live in slums, lacs of them have no option but to poop in the open at the edges of the road with a bucket of water to wash em selves. I really feel sorry for them. Anyone who has seen it, and u will if u have been to Indian cities, will agree its the worst. Maybe only jail cud top it.
Read abt the social service organisation Sulabh thats trying to provide decent public toilets to indian people here http://www.sulabhinternational.o…al.org/ pg05.htm
My worst experience ever was in a campground in France. It was the “sqat over the hole” arrangement in a small concrete stall with no rails or hand holds. Since there was no water or paper available, everyone had used the walls to wipe their hands afterwards. Thus, you had to balance carefully over the hole while desperately trying not to accidentally touch the walls, all while hoping not to pass out from the stench. Charming.
It is always nice to stumble on a bit of extra info for renovating (or planning too). If you need some top notch tips, I suggest looking at Masterrenovator.com, the guy has great info on things that can keep you out of trouble.
