The Worst Holiday Story Ever!

    My OHs parents were on Holidays at a music festival in Spain.

    On the last night the group all went out for dinner in a nice resturaunt.
    They were sitting in the courtyard having their meal when all of a sudden they see something falling, hear a big splat and are covered in something red!
    They thought it was a watermelon as people had been throwing watermelons at each other earlier(I don't know why)

    As my OHs dad got up to punch the head off the dope who covered him in watermelon he hears screaming and ses what it was that splattered alll over him......there is a guy who landed head first after jumping of the 20th floor of the building....

    Yes he was covered in head juice and there is brains all over the table. A 90 year old man had thrown himself off the top of the building and the selfish ****er ruined their holiday!

    Yeah he was going deaf and blind
    The only thing which pisses me off is he could have killed someone below

    Na they only saw it from the corner of their eye....maybe he was small, or watermelons in Spain are really big
    Or maybe they just didn't want to accept that they had been showered in head...denial and all that

    Oh yeah. The poor man should have thought about ruining a couple of tourist's dinners during his hopeless state. I mean, even if you're feeling so f*cking worthless that you want to throw yourself off a building you should at least spare a thought for the tourists.

    Won't somebody think of the tourists!???!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It was a suicide but he pushed himself in the back to make it look like murder.

    worst holiday story.....


    our idea of a holiday growing up was spending 4 days a year visiting OAP relations in i tiny little village that was from the 1800's,




    i'd sit listening to dad talking to them about people who died 30 years ago,

    or if i was lucky the story on how they found their watch that they lost 45 years ago, and it was in the drawer under the stairs all along





    funny thing was we used to look forward too it, christ people are easily pleased when they are skint


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,339 ✭✭✭me-skywalker


    i heard from a friend of mine that his uncle's best friends son was on a camping trip in spain and they pushed a man off a roof because they thought it woudl be funny to see how many people he could splat!

    Thats a bit harsh isnt it, could you not just say her parents "put her to sleep"!

    and got to meet the pope, oprah, and pay their mortgage with the money given to search for her.


    actually... this isn't a bad story at all. for them anyway.

    I'd say it's a case of all happening in an instant - they already know about the watermelons being thrown so it's a red splat, they shield themselves from the splat, instinctively stand up before hearing screaming and seeing, "Sh!t, there's a body attached to that watermelon!"

    This is one of the worst of these type of responses I've seen on boards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,803 ✭✭✭El Siglo


    I went on holiday to Mayo...
    that's it, that's my "worst holiday story ever".

    YES!! Thats exaclty what I was doing! I hate them usual smart-alec answers so i decided to create the worst ever smart-alec anecdotly style answer! Pure Muck!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 282 ✭✭_ZeeK_


    20 storeys? 90 years old?
    i'm surprised his body didn't disintegrate as he flew through the air.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,558 ✭✭✭netwhizkid


    20 storeys and 90yrs old in Spain where they probably did not have a lift, he is 90 so he definitely didn't climb all those flights of stairs by himself. Looks like we have the old shovey fally make it look like a suicide gag going on here.

    Sometimes those wheelchairs have a mind of their own too!

    Although this is something pretty horrible I think worst holiday ever is a bit extreme. One where people end up in prison for years through no fault of their own sound lots worse.

    He didn't jump, an angry husband came home early and caught him in flagrante delicto.

    I blame that Bertolli Olive Oil myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,153 ✭✭✭Rented Mule


    90 years old ??

    I am surprised that he didn't have to stop for a piss half way down.
