A lightbulb story...

My friend told me this once....

There was a party in a student's dorm. Everybody were a bit drunk then... One guy enters the room and says like: "did you know, that if you put a lightbulb into your mouth, you can't put it out?". Everybody laughed a bit and seemed to forget and partied on, when a shout came from the second room. "Quick! - says the other guy - call the doctor! Marek is sitting in the kitchem with a ligtbulb in his mouth!!!". And so they called taxi to drive them to clinic emergency service. The man in the taxi looked like ":eek: what the hell happened to that guy?!" "He has a lightbulb in his mouth"... So they drove to the emergency service, the doctor gave a shot loosening Marek's jaw and so they took the lightbulb without crushing it...
Then they came back to the party, but as soon as they arrived, one guy called "Hey! call that taxi back! Anka is sitting with a lightbulb too!"...
So they called taxi again and one another came to drive them once again to the emergency service... when they arrived with Anka to the waiting room, they met the first taxi driver - guess what - with a lightbulb up his mouth...
The doctor came out and just said: "please wait, we got plague here..."

Probably it was because of the vacuum created inside their mouths when they held the bulb inside by kind of sucking on it......
I guess. :err: :(

What? No bulbs in local store? :D
You see, Nicko, the problem was noone did believe in what the first guy said about bulbs... so then Marek, Anka and the taxi driver wanted to try that out andended up with a lightbulb stuck in their mouths.

Luckily all ended well and the rest had then a huge laugh of how stupid ppl can be after having some alcohol...

@beg: it's propably the mechanical way of how the jaw bones work. If you spread them too much, muscles will contract. If it was because of inner pressure, it would be quite easy to solve by breathing through nose nad pumping some air to ones throat from the other side of the bulb.

The jaw muscles are really strong, and not very extensible. Plus, lightbulbs have no air in them, which makes them easy to break from the outside.

(sorry, I can't help seeming to be a know-it-all sometimes... but I just seem to be one... I know very little USEFUL stuff.)
