      One time I was leading a workshop on the physics of sport. The activity involved racing some cucumber boats through a long gutter full of water. At the end of the activity we had to get rid of the water somehow…
      A teacher that had brought the students to our university had the bright idea of picking up the gutter and pouring the water through the window from the second floor. They tried to pick the gutter up and instead soaked themselves and the room! I probably should’ve been more responsible give I was leading the workshop, but was too funny not to burst out laughing.
