Usually there isn't anything interesting about a busted inner tube, they get holes and go flat all the time. This one is a little different; I installed it and then wheel starting making strange sounds. After some investigation I found that the tube was full of dirt. No idea how it got in there.

Dude, you've gotta buy new tubes! who knows where used ones have been!
It was a new tube!
I have never seen that happen in all my years riding.
Was there any hidden gold in that dirt?
From some disgruntled employee no doubt.
Chinese / Taiwan dirt?
Shenanigans! Shenanigans I say! Tubes come flat packed in boxes so this sort of thing just doesn't happen without outside help.
What the hell??
Heh, reminds me of a prank I played on a bud once. I filled his innertube with jingle bells. Made a small incision, filled tube, patched. You shoulda seen the look on his face when we started rolling at the trailhead.
sometimes my pump gets full of mud when i'm mountainbiking, thats where it could have come from (but thats a lot of it!)
