One which isn't in the poll is:

"When you have a really snotty cold (and I'm talking about the sort of snotty cold where your lungs are like a blocked sink in a toffee factory) & you are in a room full of your relatives, where said sneeze catches you completely by surprise and without hankerchief"

One word:

Splat!

The food one doesn't bother me too much as I don't usually sneeze with my mouth open and would be able to keep it in without spitting it everywhere.
However, if I were to scale mountains without a harness and suddenly sneeze that would be like certain death. well, if i were able to climb anything. Ouch

Being a woman I have no problems of sneezing while peeing, and you men would not either if you sat down for it.

I voted for "While walking on a tightrope". My brother , who is ten years older than I am, had a collection of "Famous Last Words" pictures he had collected in the early 70s, when my family lived in Nottingham and Leeds; he says they were quite a fashion then amongst kids. One of them was an "Oh, I am going to sneeze" picture of a man on a tightrope. Others I remember were "Yippie, eggs for tea" from a man who found an eagle's nest or "It's kind a dark suddenly" from a worm above which a descending foot hovered.

Not to mention "what the hell was that?" (the mayor of Hiroshima).

Sorry, I know it's sick, but always makes me giggle... my bad

Sneezing while riding a motercycle at speed wearing a full-face crash helmet.
 
 
I've done that. It's not big, it's not clever and it certainly ain't pretty.
What?

While pissing.. yes... that's a total mess... but many of the list seems very dangerous if it happen to me... but funny if I can see somebody else in that situation...
Change the program inside... Stay in silence is a crime.

You know what I hate?  When a sneeze is coming on and you really feel like you need to and it doesn't go off (ah, ah, ah ,ah, no choo) .

Not to mention you (guys and gals) can take the opportunity do certain internal exercises (hint they begin with a "K")...Tongue

While shaving...Believe me, once had a sudden sneeze when using one of those four blade machines.
 
Ended with a beutiful four lines scratch bellow the nose.

PS: When peeing in a plane is awful also
 
PS II: Just remember I sneezed once while taking a fine porcelain soup tureen full of boiling soup,....Don't know how managed to avoid a double tragedy (My leg and an expensive collection piece of my ex mother in law).

I went with scuba diving. I didn't even strike me while I was doing it, that something like that might happen.*gulp* Although, I see this as something very unlikely.

Voted for the first option, but any time when a large amount of snot is released and I don't have the opportunity to grab a hankie can be defined as the worst time to sneeze.

A scientific comment: The major of Hiroshima would not have had time to utter this. The heat wave travels at light speed; only the air pressure wave that makes the houses collapse travels at a slower speed.

Don't you hate it when people analyse your jokes?

That said - just realised it's the 65th anniversary today, so apologies for insensitivity

It's probablly a little bit less than light speed and decelerating all the time.

but fast enough to not give the mayor any time for reaction
