One person said: ‘You might need an exorcist.’
Another could relate, saying: ‘Hi, I had exactly the same issue a couple of weeks ago, turned out that my bathroom was haunted so got the old catholic priests in to exorcise the bathroom.’
Another said simply: ‘Boo roll.’
Others, however, had a more sensible explanation and said the moving toilet roll was down to physics.

One wrote: ‘Looks like you’ve invented a perpetual motion machine, congrats!’
