What is the last thing you'd expect to discover has clogged your plumbing? Hair? A giant huntsman spider? The skeletal remains of King Richard III of England?

Well, okay so that is probably the last thing you'd expect.

But this one is still pretty weird.

After a period of persistent toilet problems, Florida man (of course) Oscar Tabares completely removed the commode and discovered a tiny iguana face peering up at him from the pipes.

That poor, poor iguana.

Tabares told Local 10 news that after they were able to extract the iguana, his uncle walked the animal as if it were a pet on a leash and safely released the large lizard outside.

As always, thank you to Florida for being a constant source of insane news. Keep being you.
