I had a bat hiding in my bra

edesignuk · Jul 9, 2008

Superhero fans know about the bat phone and the bat car, but how about the bat bra?

That's the gadget Abbie Hawkins seems to have invented, at least.

The 19-year-old was amazed to discover vibrations through her body were caused not by her phone but by a bat in her underwear....

Metro.

Never let it be said I don't bring important news to you all.

When I saw the title and edesignuk's name underneath my first though was 😱 is there a little secret he's keeping from us?

5 hours before she looked to see what it was!!! still, from the picture a whole family of bats could have fitted in there 😀

I'd like to thank her for her re-creation of the incident!

Another variation on the look-at-me theme: look-at-my-melons. 🙄

Sad...

Yep, first look at the picture and I thought his brand new implants were a little too big.

Those bats would have been well fed.

Well, it is more fun to read about than the latest suicide bombing.

Why did she think it was her phone? Does she normally tuck that inside her (admittedly spacious) underwear?

And if she does, why didn't she try to take it out when it started vibrating? Most people answer their phones.

It said she was driving... In the UK that's illegal.

My brother used to work at a bat hospital. The woman who ran it (I met her a few times) used to keep bats in her bra. She was a bit of a local celebrity 🙂

I couldn't find an online story about her keeping bats in her bra (this was 15 years ago) but I found an old site for the hospital :

Only some breeds. And even then, they normally suck animal blood, not human, if I remember right. Feel free to correct me if anybody can clarify, my memory's a bit rusty.

Wow, whoever had the idea of recreating the incident is genius!

Yeah, a rubber bat. Brilliant. 🙄

Fruit bats don't bite, that I know of, and baby bats might just love the vet's bra during the day.

I probably would too.

Because e says they are. That's all we need to know. 😉

No wonder bats are blind, you could have your eye out with those...
