I have to say this is disgraceful, the poor man may have been saved if someone had of kicked down the door earlier.  I also suppose they never clean the toilets in this place??  I hope the family prosecute.   In this day and age in the U.K. who could believe a man could lay dead behind a door  for 5 days and the staff of the shop where joking why the door would not open... It's a sad world.

If I owned an establishment and one toilet door was locked for even one day I would want to know why.  As said in the newspapers this man could have had a stroke and may have been saved if someone had of had enough common sense to wonder why a door should be locked from the inside...

I'm going to make it my mission in life to kick down every closed toilet door in future, just in case.

I think for Health & Safety reasons toilet doors should be banned or, at least made transparent. I've set up a website for a petition in support of this movement.

It's at https//www.icupoop.org/petition

Why do I need to carry a very dangerous glass item in my pocket when I'm already well equipped with PPE?

I must be missing something here... As someone with a really good sense of humour I can find nothing funny about a man being left behind a toilet door for 5 days and as said if he had of been found the 1st day he may have lived..  So a man is slumped inside a toilet cubicle for 5 days and left to rot and that's funny??? i must have had a sense of humour bypass.. I am sure this guy was someones Father someones son and they must be devistated.

I agree with Jackie, I don't find it funny, this poor man could have been saved if someone had investigated earlier. It could have been you. Tragic.

No. Because the people who love me would have wondered where I was after 5 hours, NOT 5 days.

But how would the family know where to look?? He may have dashed in just to use the toilet or was a secret gambler - it happens. His loved ones were probably out of their minds with worry.

"A black comedy, or dark comedy, is a comic work that employs black humor, which, in its most basic definition, is humor that makes light of otherwise solemn subject matter, or gallows humor."

Not meant to offend , perhaps a workshop / blokes type of thing  .

Yes and all the better for it or do I feel detention coming on.But a realistic GSOH is required as has been said.
