Stuck! (in the bathroom)
A few days ago I went to the bathroom. So, naturally I closed the door, which in this case, turned out to be a bad thing. When I turned around after washing my hands the door knob turned about a half inch and stopped.
Try as I might I couldn't get out! Eventually my Mom heard the racket I was making and asked what I was doing. I responded with my story and she awoke my father. I am a teenager so when my Dad woke up around midnight to this odd story he was at first, pretty mad by habit. Then when he realized how weird the situation was he put his Leatherman under the door for me, (mine wouldn't fit as it's the Surge!) and used mine from the other side.
Eventually using the combination of Leathermans and two guys prying at the door from both sides, the door popped of the hinges with a metallic cracking sound and I was free. Thank you Leatherman for making such amazing tools! Otherwise we might of had break the door down with an ax!

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.
