A travel agent friend of mine swore this happened to her clients, but it's got all the signs of an Urban Legend (not only crude, but racist to boot):
A couple from suburban California were vacationing in Jamaica when their room was broken into and everything stolen, with the exception of their camera and their toothbrushes. Considering themselves fortunate to have retained the camera with their vacation photos, they returned home where they had the film developed.
Two pictures were unidentifiable -- something like an aerial view of two mounds of dark earth with a pole in between. They later realized, to their horror, that it was a photo of their toothbrushes up someone's rear end.
A different version:
I heard this one while waitressing in Miami ten years ago. I think part of what made it seem plausible was the fact that the folks in South Florida are so often warned about crime targeting tourists, plus they often vacation in the Carribbean.
Of course, this happened to a friend of a friend of mine!
The "friend" and his new wife went to Jamaica for their honeymoon, where they stayed in a bungalow on the beach. One day they came back to their bungalow to discover that they'd been robbed. The burglars had taken everything of value, their money, binoculars, video camera, even clothes, but luckily had missed their camera and some worthless personal items, such as toiletries.
The couple decided to make the best of it, and enjoyed the rest of their honeymoon. Once back in Miami, they had the film developed from their vacation. There, along with the pictures of themselves snorkeling and hanging out on the beach, were some pictures the burglars had taken.
The robbers had taken turns shoving the couple's toothbrushes up their rectums and photographing each other doing so.
I have heard different versions for years:
1) the couple are brushing their teeth when the photo lab guy calls to tell them they are sick people, of course they ask what he means and he describes the photos realizing they didn't take them.
2) there is photos of butts and gentiles, no toothbrush involved. (A kodak comercail was made on this legend. the one where the old biddies fall asleep on the beach and some kid and a friend take pictures of his privates and put the camera back where they took it from.)
3)the dog knocks over the camera getting a picture of it licking the toothbrush.-JLB
