Floor caves under Weight Watchers weigh-in --- No one injured — but dieters might have extra motivation to shed pounds

msnbc.com updated 3:01 p.m. CT, Fri., Jan. 15, 2010 As a Weight Watchers group gathered for a routine weigh-in, the dieters got an idea of how far they still had to go: The floor underneath them collapsed, a Swedish newspaper reports.

"We suddenly heard a huge thud; we almost thought it was an earthquake and everything flew up in the air," one of about 20 group members said to the Smalandsposten newspaper. "The floor collapsed in one corner of the room and along the walls."

After the initial collapse on Wednesday evening, the floor started to cave in other parts of the room, and the stench of sewage crept into the clinic, which is in Vaxjo, a city in south central Sweden. The group is looking for an alternate location for future meetings, Weight Watchers consultant Therese Levin told the Swedish paper.

Hysterical.

Perhaps they might want to consider a first story location with a concrete floor.

i wonder if it ever occurred to any of the "activists" that there is a lot more to leather jackets than just style when riding a motorcycle?

That's GREAT! If that happened in the U.S. they'd be suing the construction company and the architect for descrimination.

Is that for real? It can't be.
But I like the secret handshake.

This story turned out to be fake, but it is pretty funny.
