In a bizarre incident in Otsego County, Northern Michigan, a woman got stuck in an outhouse toilet while attempting to retrieve her Apple Watch, necessitating a rescue operation.

In a peculiar incident that unfolded in Northern Michigan's Otsego County, a woman found herself in a rather unpleasant predicament. The story begins near Dixon Lake's Department of Natural Resources boat launch around 11 a.m. on a Tuesday. Intent on retrieving her misplaced Apple Watch, the woman made a regrettable decision to lower herself into an outhouse toilet. As her situation quickly escalated, cries for assistance echoed from within the confines of the toilet.

Promptly responding to the distress call were conservation officers, state troopers, and Otsego County EMS personnel. The solution? The toilet had to be removed, and a strap was employed to safely extricate the trapped woman.

The Michigan State Police issued a stern warning in the aftermath, cautioning against attempting such ill-fated retrievals from outhouse toilets due to the serious risk of injury.

This bizarre incident joins a list of unusual happenings in the region, including a drunken individual defiling a PT Cruiser and a case where a man allegedly defecated into a box at a Michigan Meijer store and then returned it to the shelf. Such curious tales continue to captivate the Northern Michigan area, with even a poop-flinging chimp making s at John Ball Zoo, revealing a history of "behavioral issues."

Additionally, a property line dispute led one man to construct a unique "poop wall." For those venturing into the backcountry, a primer on concealing your scat in wooded areas is also available for those seeking guidance.
