[quote:86f31]n elderly woman was rescued after being found buried beneath a pile of debris, garbage and animal feces in a home, authorities said. An elderly man was found dead.

Helen Bushwick, 85, was discovered Thursday when volunteer firefighters went to the two-story house on Long Island after relatives said they couldn't reach her. Debris mixed with human and animal waste was piled high in every room, some all the way to the ceiling.

"A six-foot pile of rubbish collapsed on her and trapped her in there," Erik Kinney, a volunteer firefighter, said of Bushwick.

The man was found Friday when authorities resumed a search. His name was not released.

Bushwick was taken to a hospital where she was admitted suffering from dehydration. Officials weren't sure how long the couple had been trapped, but neighbors said they last saw them about a week ago.

There was garbage -- "cans, boxes, clothing, papers, whatever you can collect in every room, some spots to the ceiling, some three feet to the ceiling," Kinney said. "Feces -- raccoon, possum and human" were found in buckets and in the trash.

"The stench was very strong, as you can imagine," he added.

A sign was posted on the home saying it was unfit for human occupancy, said John Rottkamp, first deputy commissioner of the buildings department in the town of Hempstead, which has jurisdiction over Woodmere. The gas also had been turned off.

The house will be boarded up, and the woman's relatives will be allowed to go through the contents, authorities said.[/quote:86f31]

I helped my brother on a job once (we had to install this huge bay window) and the ENTIRE house was cluttered in shit. There were stacks of boxes and papers all around the house. There were little aisles leading to all of the rooms. I guess some people refuse to throw out old stuff.

Ive heard of people hoarding stuff before but hoarding literal SHIT is something new to me. oOo:

You'd wonder how they can let it get so bad, surely when they realise that their house resembles an army assault course that they would try to get rid of some of it.
