People Are Sharing Funny, Weird, And Embarrassing Stories About Their Teachers For Jimmy Fallon’s Challenge (40 Pics)

My 6th grade math teacher had a life sized cardboard cutout of himself that sat in the corner of the room. He also hung up pictures of his face all over the walls. When asked why, he said "I'm always watching." Then left the room ominously. Once in the middle of a test, it was dead silent, all of a sudden he screamed to scare everyone (it worked). then once he spend a whole period teaching us to harmonize with the backstreet boys. and once during a test he yelled "STAMPEDE DRILL" played the sound of a group of animals stampeding at full volume, and made us all get under our desks. And at the beginning of the year, he put a bowl of clam chowder outside by his classroom door. We planned to see how disgusting it got by the end of the year, but it ended up smelling so bad that the janitor had to throw it away even when he asked them not to. He was my all time favorite teacher and everyone who gets put in his class is blessed.

My history teacher would show up in costumes for the discussion of the day. For the Civil War he came in his Union outfit with sword, riding his white horse up the path behind our classroom. "Charge!" he yelled and zoomed back the other way. Later he "accidently" got his boot stuck in the trash can. He was great. Encouraged us all.

My first day in junior high (middle school) we had gym class orientation. When the coach was telling us about the equipment we needed, he mentioned protection cups. I asked where I could get one. He just looked at me like I was the most pathetic thing he's ever seen.

My 9th grade biology teacher argued that twins have the identical finger prints. She tried to prove this in murder mystery challenge, which is how our argument started. Her scientific method behind proving this ideology technically made sense but her lack of including different womb positions cost her any credibility.. It took a very heated 45 minute argument for her to finally admit she was wrong. This took place in one of the top ten public high schools in the USA (at the time). It was shameful. I switched schools shortly after....

My older sister took French and German at high school. She told me the German teacher made kids who yawned when she was talking put their heads out the window (one storey building) as they 'clearly needed fresh air'. I thought she was joking, but took only French as a second language anyway. I saw kids in the room next to us occasionally stick their head out the window. I don't think she was kidding. My sisters best story of her: She also had a doctorate, and (understandably) got frustrated at always being called Mrs. One day she snapped and growled "I didn't spend x years at University to be called Mrs!" This was unfortunately timed with Austin Powers being a movie that had come out within the last couple of years. I don't think she knew why the class cracked up so hard, but detentions ensued 😂

There was a teacher at my high school that played the bagpipes. Every Tuesday he had an evening practise in town and since he lived out of town he would stay at the school and practise in his classroom, instead of driving home, and having to turn around and come right back. Our school was over 100 years old at that point, 4 floors and in a cube shape that had a hollow column in the middle (so even interior classrooms could have windows for fresh air). So no matter where you were in that school you could hear his bagpipes! It was always after regular school hours, but if you were unlucky enough to have to do a makeup test/assignment or had sports you had to hear his bagpipes

My chemistry teacher in high school was awesome. My class and him played pranks on each other, and we had to call him Grandmaster and he called us the Titration Team. We even threw him a surprise birthday party, and also a dinner party after we graduated. In one of my stories I have a teacher character inspired by him, and beta readers always complain that it's inappropriate and unrealistic and that teachers and students can't be friends. Sad to think that it's so unusual.

My food tech teacher was amazing. She would constantly fangirl over Chris Hemsworth and she had cool nicknames for everyone. We all called her Queen [name] of Hemsworth. Oh and, we'd listen to the Hokey Pokey and the Clean up Song at the end of lesson. Also on the last day of term we ate Doritoes and watched Masterchef. Good times.

My english teacher on 3rd grade, Mr Nick O'Sullivan, saw my sister on the school gates wairing for me. My sis and looked very alike when we were 10ish, so he asked her "are you Sergio Bicerra's sister?" she said yes, he tapped on her head, said "poor girl" and went his way.

Biology teacher explains contraception: "Condoms are one size fits all. That way, you don't have to ask for a 'small'."
