Republican candidate Donald Trump thought it would be a good idea to host a Twitter Q&A, encouraging his followers to ask him sensible, policy-related questions.
Naturally, social media users had other ideas.
Answering questions live from Twitter’s offices in New York City, Mr Trump instead faced questions on topics ranging from his hair to the alternative meaning of his surname in Britain.
Here’s our round-up of the best ones:

Questions that Mr Trump did answer included what he would do on his first day of President, should he win, to which he replied: “close up our borders so that illegal immigrants cannot come into our country”.
He also addressed one users’ concern over an injury sustained by American Football player, Tony Romo who plays for the Dallas Cowboys. Mr Trump said his injury was a “terrible thing for the Dallas Cowboys” however their “defence is excellent”.
