When I was 20+ I worked at an avionics repair shop. The place had a large parking lot and large yard for moving airplanes around. It was about 1km of open ground from the bus stop at the gates to the closest building.
One morning while walking this route to work with countles others on that shift, my stomach started to rumble. 500m to go, that rumble became a pain I have never experienced before. It was clear I needed a toilet then and there. I tried to run, adding more attention to myself, but the pain put me on my knees.
With all those people checking if I was OK, my stomach decided to flush everything out.
So, with dozen people watching I experienced first sudden symptoms of an especially violent stomach flu.
