Thankfully it didn't happen to me, but the school bus broke down on the day of my sister's English exam 
the feeling of that happening would be horrible
Well, I used to go to an all girls school, and we were allowed to go to our exams in non-uniform. Anyway, we were sitting in the hall about to sit an IT exam and our headteacher came in to rant about what we were wearing, she basically said we dressed like slags and walked out again. Bit random.

there was wasps in the exam hall I was in, and when they fell on the floor invigilators went round stamping on them, making crunch noises 
I'm guessing people started to panic when they saw a wasp
Had a guy chunder in our exam hall once 
Not exactly strange, but it certainly lightened the mood when our headteacher tripped up in the middle of the exam hall at high school! 
There was a bumble bee sitting on my water bottle, and I desperately needed to take a sip of water. The bumble bee wouldn't move. I didn't want to move the bottle (it was on the floor next to my desk) otherwise the bumble bee would attack me at my seat, which would be highly embarassing.
I had to endure an hour approximately of no water. The exam was 1 hour 45 minutes btw.

This is why I always get a lift into school on exam days. You can never trust those school buses.
In a Greek exam at my school, there were only 6 people and a teacher. After about an hour, the teacher sat down to do some marking (it wasn't like a GCSE or anything, just an end of year exam) and fell asleep. Anyway, this teacher then proceeded to fall off his chair and DIDN'T WAKE UP, right infront of the entrance. As the next teacher came in to take over, he hit the teacher in the head with the door, who then started to cry in his disorientated confusion :P
Needless to say, the Greek marks were unnaturally high that year...

It was very strange. He left the school last year amidst a tide of "paedo" accusations from the students...
You were on the English thread, right?
Not strange, but we were sitting an AQA Economics paper. Some external dude was sitting the same paper, but with edexcel. His paper was 1hr 30 mins and ours was 1hr 15 mins. The invigilator thought both papers were 1.5 hours, so us AQA guys got 15 mins extra :P
She found out at the end that she messed up the times, and her face was priceless lol

Well, the only thing that has happened in my exam was an invigilators phone going off :/ Oh, and a girl dropping her water bottle on the floor REALLY LOUDLY. I also have a habit of dropping things, which is super embarrasing as I literally throw most of my stuff onto the floor by mistake :/
