Be careful when using a toilet as "ladder"

The toilet is a Roca Victoria-05.



I was trying to repair the bulb socket at the ceiling of the toilet. I stepped down from height, putting my right foot on the edge of the Roca toilet seat (covered), and it cracked into 4 pcs, with sharp edges.



It's lucky that I DID NOT put my foot on the center of the toilet cover, or my lower leg's flesh would be shaved!


BTW, why didn't there a warning sign on the toilet cover telling users NOT TO STEP ON IT if it's so fragile?

Hmmm, So you are advertising your foolishness? Safety comes from common sense.

If I didn't exercise caution, I should be in the hospital now. I would not have stepped on the edge of the toilet.

Hmmm, What is your BMI? I have 4 bathrooms in my house. It never happens.

Because you bought a cheap piece of s*it plastic toilet seat. The GOOD ones are made out of wood.

Me neither.I have stood on the cover without it breaking. I'm 6'2" and weigh 190 lbs.

Then there is no such thing as safety. Because "common sense" is an oxymoron, such as "military intelligence" or "good job".

Just think of the horrors you might have experienced if you had fallen INTO the toilet and bumped the flush lever as you fell in. They would be pulling your dead body out of the sewerage treatment plant now.

By the way, how much do you weigh? Just curious.....

What kind of toilet seat cover were you 2 using? :)

OK. How thick is a good wooden seat?
