When I was about five or six years old, our church had this foul toilet behind the altar. It was a non-flush toilet, and it was real, real deep. I used to sit on there and hang on for dear life, because I was scared that I would fall down into the thing and never be able to get back out. Yuk. Now, though I can sit on the loo with no fear... hahaha
