Worst way you've been woken up

[Wordslinger]

Last night I was woken up by the loudest, most annoying hotel fire alarm in history, an hour after I fell asleep. I had to walk down 10 flights of stairs that smelled like piss, and stand in the 50 degree rain for half an hour in shorts and a tee shirt until the fire department cleared us to go back in. It turned out that there wasn't even a fire.

So Escapist, what's the worst, most annoying way you've ever been woken up?

Mine's obviously not the best, but I've fallen of my bed a couple times >.<

Camping trip.
Tent.
Bear.
Soiled underpants.

Crapping myself in fear after a car crashed into the front wall of a hotel myself and my Dad were staying in. Straight through the wall of the room next to ours. I was too tired to care, but I did want to investigate. It was pretty hilarious actually, hearing pissed off French tourists scream at a car at 4 AM is just...amazing.

Most annoying would have to be those night drills back when I was in the military, but the absolute worst way I've ever been woken up was a soft, tickling sensation on my face, like someone slowly dragging miniature feathers across my skin. I opened my eyes and looked directly at a spider the size of my palm sitting on my face. I think I actually widened the cracks in my bedroom walls with my scream.

When I was little I woke up with my head wedged between the wall and my bed.

Back when I lived in an apartment, they're was a time a low flying airplane flew over my house, literally sounded like a bomb had gone off, worst enough, I had woken up after such a deep sleep that the light coming from my window was incredibly bright.

The whole sound, light, and confusion from being woken up from a deep sleep made me think an atomic bomb had been dropped on my fair town.

"Wake up Lisolet, you're mother's dead."

That was my father, the great communicator.

 

[Phishfood]

Not as bad as yours, but have you ever had a cat jump on your face? Claws out?

Fucking ow. My old cat did that once, and I shot up fairly quick.

Trade you your cat claws for my point blank cat fart. It even smelled bad in the DREAM!

 

[PureChaos]

a fire drill at the uni halls at 6:30am when i'd been out the night before. i wasn't happy

 

[Benj17]

Duck rampage after my mate chucked on off his face

we were sleeping in the park, was obviously the ducks turf

 

[Ultrasnail]

i once slept through a maths lesson (i had finished the work the week before so was aloud) at the end of the lesson i get woken up i then proceeded to stagger out of my class and go outside and walk all the way across campus... did i mention it was winter and snowing outside.

it was still a good day though but waking up that way is brutal.

 

[Insanum]

I went camping Near Creg-ne-Barr in the Isle of man during the TT - I was woken up by the sounds of Bikes accelerating from 30-130mph, and shifting up the gears.

Was awful, Then amazing.

 

[Dege84]

Wake up Lisolet, you're mother's dead.
That was my father, the great communicator.

Some people just don't have what it takes, eh? Simmilar thing happened to me, the author was sort of a friend of mine: Hey...your girlfriend has drowned. I'm sorry.

 

[TheZapper]

Probably with the mirror on my wall falling aned shattering into thousands of pieces.

I didn't get hit by any thankfully, but christ it was loud.

 

[SimuLord]

Left ESPN on overnight. Fell asleep during SportsCenter, awoke to a chorus of vuvuzelas, thought I was under attack by bees---which explains the nightmare.

Not as bad as yours, but have you ever had a cat jump on your face? Claws out?

Fucking ow. My old cat did that once, and I shot up fairly quick.

I have a cat related tale. I tell you, it didn't hurt, but cat puke in the face at 5:AM is not pleasant at all.
Still, I think the claws would be a tad worse.

A screeching Owl loungling (ORLY? Shut up!) It kept me awake all night and screeched too early in the morning.
Crickets are noisy too.
