Animal bites can be dangerous. Some of them will completely destroy you. But this is not a grizzly bear, or an alligator with it's jaws around your torso. One woman dialled 999 after being bitten on the finger... by a hamster. Quick! Get an ambulance out, immediately! She's not the only person to have suffered deadly wounds from their pets. Another animal owner phoned for an ambulance claiming she had a bloody injured hand - only for paramedics to discover she had sustained a minor scratch from her cat. Facepalm.
5. Burglar Locked Inside The House He's Robbing
Possible the worst burglar in the world? John Finch, known as the "drunk burglar" broke into an 81-year-old pensioners home, and was delighted to discover no one was actually home. He drank three bottles of gin and two bottles of whiskey, becoming so stewed he was unable to climb back out the window he entered the premises through. Normally, it's the victim of burglary who calls the police in a panic. This time, the 44-year-old had no alternative but to dial that number and ask for help; as a result, handing himself in for arrest. This has to be the greatest feel-good crime fighting story ever.
