Even before these far too frequent cases of violence in schools, not all students felt safe going to school every day.

As bullying continues to be an ongoing problem, with students being bullied by fellow students and teachers alike.

Sadly, bullying has become so commonplace that many students and teachers might witness it and not think much of it.

Every now and then, however, people will witness something happening within the presumably safe walls of a school which still keeps them awake at night.

Something so shocking or horrific that should simply never happen anywhere... let alone in a school.


Redditor Phantom_Balls was curious to hear the most unbelievable things people have seen taking place at a school, leading them to ask:
"What was the most f**ked up thing you saw at your school?"

A Stupid Dare, Or Just Plain Stupidity?

"The ambulance in front of the school because two guys glued their eyelids shut with a quick-dry adhesive."- Teapunk00

An Accident That Should Never Have Happened

"A new kid at our school grabbed the art teacher's scissors and threw them over a dividing wall when the teacher left the room."

"They hit some girl in a different art class on the other side and one of the blades went through her cheek."

"We were held after class until he finally confessed, and we saw the police at the school later."

"He had been at our school for about a week, and we never saw him again after that day."- HairyDowntown

There's A Reason They Warn You Not To Play With Your Food

"Some guy got a concussion because someone threw a kiwi(fruit) and he got hit in the head."- BobbyLeFourbe

What Lesson Could They Have Possibly Learned?

"Some kids were punching a mason jar lid that we used to seal a jar with some bug in it."

"They were doing it as some sort of whose tougher test."

"When the teacher sees this and sees they have small scratches on their knuckles she proceeds to tell them that the bug was poisonous and they will die very soon since they drew blood punching the lid."

"We were maybe 10 at the time."

'She made them write goodbye notes to their parents and make goodbye speeches to the class."

"We were all tripping because we believed her too."

"It was wild."- country728

The List Goes On and On...

"Middle school:"

"Girl had the sewing machine needle go right through her finger."

"The left with the needle and thread just hanging out."

"Another kid had an exacto knife stabbed right into his wrist, by accident, so close to the artery."


"High school:"

"Girl was run over by a bus."

"It backed over her, then pulled forward over her again!"

"We had fundraisers and pep rallies for her."

"She made a full recovery and is still playing sports at almost 40 now."

"Sex in the bathroom."

"Endangered turtle was found during construction."

"All construction had to stop until the turtle moved out."

"PE teacher…you know how that one goes."- Dyltra

What A Way To Go

"The EMTs wheeling out the Spanish teacher after she had died in the girl's bathroom of a heart attack."- CapG_13

So Many Questions...

"A jeep ended up in the swimming pool."

"The student crashed through the wall during lunch, rumors about DUI flew, but never did find out exactly what happened."- Taladrac

Things Aren't Always What They Seem...

"When I was at 1-2 grades, we had this extremely friendly janitor, who could be found in his small office, and he would close the door and give you some candies."

"I heard about this, and never believed my friends, but I decided to go see him on one of the brakes."

"I know what you think, but stay with me."

"I knocked, he opened and asked me what my name was, and what I would like to do when I grow up, he gave me 2 candies and said thank you for visiting."

"Yep, just a normal dude who likes kids."

"Also, we had computer class where we were taught stuff like paint, word, PowerPoint."

"We had about 20 pentium 1 computers."

"One day, all the computers were gone, disappeared."

"And so was he, the candy giving nice dude."- EastOrganization2392

Strangest Thing About This Was That He Wasn't Watching It...

"Some guy in college sat in front of me in a studio."

"We were on stools so there was no back to the chair."

"He had his phone in his back pocket, screen facing out with porn playing on his phone, he had his headphones on."

"I wasn’t the only one who noticed, but I certainly didn’t want to break the silence by telling him."- ireallyamtired

Some Would Say They Deserved Much Worse...

"A bald girl crying as she walked to class."

"Someone had stolen her wig and run away with it."

"They knew she had brain cancer and couldn't chase after them."

"The wig was only returned after a popular boy made the girls give it to him."

"The girl died a few months later."

"Only bright side was that the girls who stole her wig had to change schools because no one would let them forget what a bunch of monsters they are."

"Play stupid games win endless harassment because you bullied the quiet dying girl who was nice to everyone."- godwins_law_34

So Much Wasted Talent

"We had a teammate drop dead mid-run during basketball practice in 8th grade."

"It turned out he had an undiagnosed heart defect and he just had a sudden heart attack with no warnings."- fightwallace

Everyone has at least one or two unpleasant memories from their time at school.

These sorts of things, however, no one should ever have to witness anywhere, at any time in their lives.
