And finally, talking about trying to control one's bowel movements in the face of extreme pressure, we have the story of Ashley Revell, the British man, who on Sunday, stood in a Las Vegas casino wearing a rented tuxedo, surrounded by family and friends and bet his entire life savings on a single spin of the roulette wheel.

The 32-year-old Londoner, sold all his possessions in March, took $135,300 to the Plaza Hotel in Las Vegas, did some low-stakes gambling, and then placed everything he had left on 'red'.
The wheel was spun, a crowd of supporters including his Mum and Dad from London went wild, the ball bobbled over the slots and landed on 'Red 7’ and Revell walked away with $270,600. "It all happened so quickly, it was spinning before I knew it”, Revell said.
Asked if he wanted to try his luck again, Revell said: “No that’s it for me. I think he’d like me to do it again, but no that’s it,” gesturing to a casino host. “I don’t want to ride my luck”, he said as the champagne began to flow.
After giving a $600 tip to the croupier, Mr. Rivell rushed off to buy some clean underpants.
