I have been reliably informed that in an August edition of the Sunday Telegraph there was a report of a fatality in South America due to the Trumper,i have not read this but would welcome anybody who read this.According to my friend this UK citizen was on a walking holiday when he found himself in Marshland where there was an abandoned shoe in which the VRT was lying dormant ,sadly he could not be revived however his 2 companions made there way to a local town and received hospital treatment

Beans.....is this about baked beans or some kind of bean?
They grow on a vine, when they are ripe you eat them and they can make you "trump". Or am I still at a loss on this one?

I think there's a minor misconception going on here. When we ask them for more evidence, they (inconceivable, I know) believe we believe them so spend some time concocting the next little chapter in this grimm (sic) tale. google jangle.

for infomation please read this weeks Sunday Telegraph magazine supplement.VRT"s have been reported in Harare in a container of shoes destined for a third world charity,however it appears that they are the Lumpa strain and pose no threat to humans (as reported by lance wilkins in Joberg) hope this clarifies this
