You may not believe this but MY toilet exploded about a month ago. Brand name is Vortens and there is a class action against them.

Water came through ceiling and plumber found that the upstairs bathroom [which had never been used] had the toilet totally crack and flooded the space between the second and third floors.

Beware!

National Lampoon’s True Facts described three exploding toilets back in 1981.

IIRC, one involved a father who smoked while on the throne. His son thought it would be funny to add lighter fluid to the toilet bowl so that when Dad threw the butt away.....
