I was asked this during an interview a while ago. It was obviously a stress question with no right/wrong answer and they were just testing how well I could think on my feet as opposed to simply telling them a pre-rehearsed answer to a typical job interview question. I stumbled through it and couldn't think of anything useful to say. I didn;t get the job although it probably wasn't for that reason alone.

When I was teaching at my old middle school one of the desks had the arm bar removed and was welded shut poorly. I walked by and it caught my pants. It ripped it from my groin to my knee. You could see my boxers. To make things worse I took it to my old home ec teacher who had a class, but she sewed them up for me, while I was in them, right in front of her class. She also told them stories about how I would do Steve Urkel impressions when I was in 8th grade.

Well, I wouldn't tell about it in a job interview, but on my last job, my desk was way, way far away from the ladies' room, and one time I had a sudden onset of diarrhea, and . . . my boss gave me a ride home so I could change my clothes. It happened again the day they laid me off from the job (that was a year ago now), but I didn't feel so bad about smelling up her car that time.

i had a mild case of heat exhaustion and had a severe nose bleed and bled all over myself, my uniform, and a co worker that helped me before it stopped. i had to sit at work with a bloody uniform and then go home in a bloody uniform.
