Best Miracle Ever
(with comments)
This is almost enough to make me want to go to church. But not quite. Bank worker saved from fire by divine intervention finds Jesus in his frying pan.
When Toby Elles fell asleep while cooking a late-night snack, it really was a case of divine intervention that saved his bacon.
The 22-year-old was 'miraculously' woken after an hour as his lounge filled with smoke - and quickly had the revelation that he had left a frying pan on a hob. While saying his prayers, the bank worker scraped the remains of crispy bacon rashers from the pan, but could not believe the vision that appeared before him - Jesus Christ staring back at him.
His plans?
"I'm not going to scrub it clean though, just in case I get struck by lightning, it's going to take pride of place on a wall instead."

- By Taco Jocko. Comment posted 13-Mar-2010 @09:49am:I'd like to see the bacon in the pan pre-fire. I'm guessing it was a nice piece of art work intended to look a guy with a beard.
