That must have been some dump to cause that kind of destruction. Nice metaphors.

Don't feel bad KeepOnCrappin, Boy Scouts scare the shit out of me too.

The roof? Osmosis, right?

Good story. I like the term "crap bomb".

I have seen a thing like this before, and it is not pretty. It had dried on the walls, and resembled brown cement, yet you could still smell it like it had just come out.....

Unfortunately, I've seen similar messes. Never anything quite as bad, but enough that I know the carnage left by the crap bomb. Good story. They didn't have any right to dock everyone $5 for your misdeed, though - accidents happen.

So, an act of accident transmogrified into an act of turd terrorism. At a Boy Scout camp, no less. For shame.

Good story. I have an old Boy Scout belt that was part of my brother's outfit, and know that the canvas belt can get caught under the roll bar and flat brass buckle over it.

Well, good to see that people understood my description of the Scout belt. See, I was not at the camp when they asked the staff, otherwise I might be able to tell who did it (maybe my scientest friend)

Come on, this whole ugly incident could have been avoinded by a $5.00 replacement latch. However, we wouldn't have had the good story. Love the line, "I'll take a dump wherever, whenever -- but I couldn't have seven hundred scouts looking at me"

You almost crapped your pants.

but didn't.

Come on man! Scout "food"? I was a scout once and I ALWAYS packed enough easy to prepare foods to eat, I ate scout food once, WW3 soon began in my gut Saddam would have been proud

Loved the image of having to cut off the belt to make it in time.

Hmmm...

I've always wondered how those crap deposits form in the bathroom.

I hated the one camp I had to go to as a kid that wasn't swim camp (Clarion and Kenyon Colleges). I never understood why you go. Maybe, mom and dad are sick of you and need a break? Well, whatever.

I would have been interested in going to this camp, though. Great story. 2 poopy thumbs up.

Well guess what: Now you can, and be paid for it too. This year they're hiring more incompetent schmos and you can be one too by clicking here then go to one of the camps (I was at Ross if any of yall care)

Ah,the joys of Boy Scout Camp! I'm from the UK, and spent one summer working at a camp in New England. The local Health Authority _almost_ closed the camp, when over 150 Scouts caught something that resembled "strep" - although it wasn't, because the symptoms came and went in 24 hours. The nurse was kept very busy.

One of my duties as a Camp Counsellor was to inspect each site, and award the Golden Broom to the best-kept site. I remember the joys of the KYBO (Keep Your Bowels Open)latrines. They were barrier-free (i.e. no stalls) pits. Every Troop site on the camp had their own KYBO, and they were required to keep it clean. They all tried, but there was a turd terrorist on site one week. He left a deposit at the entrance of each and every KYBO, a different one each day :-(

One day, I got sick whilst out on the trail. I needed to use a KYBO. As I said, there were no stalls or lockable doors. The facility I chose just happened to have someone already using one of the "holes" - and he was a juvenile, I was an adult. Normally, this would be a forbidden situation - but I had to "go"! I dropped my shorts, sat down - and the next thing I remember is waking up in the local hospital ER :-( Who was more embarrased - me, or the poor young Scout who administered First Aid?

Ahhhh yes the shitter of scout camp. I can't believe they didnt make one of the lil boy sprout grubbies clean it I would have!

"There was crap everywhere. It was on the walls, the seat, the toilet paper holder, the floor, and anywhere else one could possibly see, including the roof."

---you mean ceiling?

Was the one who screamed "Oh my god, a crap bomb went off in the toilet" a girl? LOL

SHit monster, yes a female camp director, at a boy scout camp.

Rckswmn-In a latrine there is no ceiling, just a roof. it is made of plywood covered by shingles if you're lucky. A ceiling would imply some kind of covering below the plywood and rafter holding the plywood, which there isn't

What is the highest known vertical dump? Crap on the ceiling er roof er whatever is a spectacular feat. S-A-L-U-T-E!!! How high can it go?

I don't know how high it could go. (Presumably higher than the aprox. 8 feet [2 meters for you metric folks] this did) Does anyone know the highest? It can really only happen when you've got extreme gas that -to quote myself- "explodicates." (Dave, we need to have a Poopreport dicionary and add this) If you wanna try it, follow these 9 simple steps:

1) Procure Gas-X and extra clothing. Have these with you during the following steps.
2) Eat food you don't like. (Or drink Arak)
3) Wait.
4) Repeat step 2.
5) Get to a toilet (preferably one you don't have to clean)
6) Prepare for extreme pain. (Gas-x, 2 seconds before power dump or it won't work)
7) Let fly.
8). Wipe and change into extra clothing.
9) Get out fast.

When I was sick with coconut poisoning I managed to get a few poop drops on the wall about four feet above me.

I have to say, I think I'd rather have had everyone looking at me and stayed on the john rather than get up to close the door. Of course, I'd be primarily counting on one of those lookers being sympathetic enough to come close the door for me. Five bucks was getting off cheap.

Cub Scouts? Getting anyware near a latrine with a guy in it? They'd gasp, then point and laugh.

Also Dave, add the term "Crap Bomb" to the PR dictionary.

2 meters is only about 6 feet. Great idea about a "Poop Dictionary" -- explodicates is too funny.

ANd in the dictionary, also have all the terms for crap (Shit, poop, ass mud, etc)

And the terms for your ass (Arse, butt, duodoendeum-think i spelled that wrong)

And the terms for toilet (Crapper, shitter, pot)

And lastly, a list of food that will cuase you to have a submittable story here on PR.

Laughing my ass off!
I thought I had a wild time at Outdoor Lab in 6th grade, but your story puts my tale of heckling the school bully completely to shame.
Have a crappy day!
La Petomaine

What does the heckling of the school bully have to do with taking a shit in a latrine?

Damn scouts deserve. Keep up the good work!

I was made to go to Boy Scout camp once, when I was 12. It was one of the worst weeks of my life. One of the older boys tried to molest me; somebody took a crap in my sleeping bag, and the Scoutmaster tried to make out like I had done it myself; and to top it all off, when I got home, I found out my dog had died.

I have never been the same since.

SOmebody took a crap behind my tent once. After I made sure the whole camp knew, the Scoutmaster said it had to be a bear. But are there bears in Pulaski, VA? It was probably a prank.

Some one also put a pair of my boxers on the flagpole once. Classic trick, never actually seen it done until then.

It's been a while since I have laughed so hard reading a poopreport.

Scout camps are breeding grounds for serious diseases.

How in the world did you get poop on the ceiling?

Those chalupas sure made you drop your chalupa. They were probably (almost certainly) stored in an improper way.

I am beaming with pride here. That was one hell of a good story. I take pride in the fact that I take noisy noxious dumps. This one sounds like a winner!
