One woman died and at least eight other people were hospitalized after being exposed to an odor at a McDonald’s restaurant in eastern Georgia, a police chief said Thursday.

What. The. ****.

Also, I think what's most horrifying about this is that eight other people were hospitalized. Like, yeah, if one person dies from a bad smell, you might just think maybe she had a weak stomach or something. This affected nine people! That can't be a coincidence.

Apparently this happened a while ago.. Here's a more reputable source without the witty commentary.

...an accident.

i assure you, if anyone left something in the bathroom so bad it could kill a person, knock others out, and hospitalize 9 in total, no accident was in there.

a bunch of weird and disgusting people yes. but not an accident.

"Recently we found ourselves with an odour problem beyond our worst expectations. During early experiments, a stopper jumped from a bottle of residues, and, although replaced at once, resulted in an immediate complaint of nausea and sickness from colleagues working in a building two hundred yards away. Two of our chemists who had done no more than investigate the cracking of minute amounts of trithioacetone found themselves the object of hostile stares in a restaurant and suffered the humiliation of having a waitress spray the area around them with a deodorant. The odours defied the expected effects of dilution since workers in the laboratory did not find the odours intolerable ... and genuinely denied responsibility since they were working in closed systems. To convince them otherwise, they were dispersed with other observers around the laboratory, at distances up to a quarter of a mile, and one drop of either acetone gem-dithiol or the mother liquors from crude trithioacetone crystallisations were placed on a watch glass in a fume cupboard. The odour was detected downwind in seconds."

A compound named Thioacetone, which also caused an offensive smell which spread rapidly over a great area of the town, [Frieburg] causing fainting, vomiting and a panic evacuation.".

no seriously, 2 people knocked out in there means that somewhere during the course of this, the following had to happen:

- woman 1 goes in. decides she can take it, doesn't, and passes out.
- woman 2 goes in, is attacked by the horrible smell AND sees a person knocked out, yet decides to use the bathroom anyway.

i don't know about the rest of it. but no matter how bad i had to go, but if a bathroom smells that bad AND i see a person knocked out, i'm using a different bathroom.

The police chief said that although an investigation is under way, authorities do not anticipate filing criminal charges.

"It appears to be an accident," Revenew said.


This part is hilarious if you assume it wasn't just some gas leak or whatever.

Can still press charges against the restaurant, right?

Still curious how a drink dispenser is linked to the bathroom though.

So the bathroom smelled awful, but the CO2 killed them. I don't see why it's hard to believe.

There's a huge distinct between awful and "worse than imaginable."

Okay. Still don't see why it's hard to believe. We're talking about people's descriptions of a very odd situation. I expect a little exaggeration.
