Diners in Ohio are feeling queasy after an internet video surfaced yesterday showing a young man taking a bath in a local Burger King’s sink. In the video, employees and a store manager watch a heavily tattooed “Mr. Unstable” relax in a bubble bath. Burger King reps tell WDTN of Dayton the employees involved have been fired and the sink sanitized—twice.

Locals say the stunt may drive them from BK permanently: "It's wrong," said one now-former patron. "That's just disgusting. I wouldn't want to eat here after I heard something like that.” (More fast food stories.)
