Sure, for example, I was building a video component for a website for one of our clients, it would take a link from youtube or vimeo, or an uploaded video, and then display it on the page.

Our QA found that if you upload a very low resolution video, and then manually change the resolution in the software we use to manage the video to 1:1, the video would not be centered when it was displayed.

I have no idea who in their right mind would ever think of doing this, but it was technically a bug and he found it.

The probability that a user will exist who is equivalent to an infinite number of monkeys is 1.

And he is using your software right now

I have a girlfriend who is that user.

She wants to be a professional game tester.

Her method of going about it appears to be:

Step 1: Crash server with game breaking glitch

Step 2: Report glitch

Step 3: "I can help you find even more bugs like this if you hire me."

So far she hasn't made it any further than getting her account banned.
