Houston, We have a latex failure

Not in the strictest sense of the word the latex's fault, but I did manage to end up with pee all over my right hand today. Empying a mans catheter bag, as you do. Its really really full. The urine is really smelly and bloody. He has a urine infection at the moment.

So, clip off the intermediate bag. Remove the night bag from the stand. Hold the free end of the night bag in my left hand. Man says something. I lean forward and say "What?" and at this point, lean against the night bag ever... so ... slightly. The urine comes running back up the tube and out inside my right glove.

Not my most pleasant day ever.
