What was he doing to take five minutes?! I think that and handling the bowl are the two rarest, though obstructing the field is up there too. about 10 or 11 ways to get out I think.

It's a classic sports trivia question - name all the different ways of being given out in cricket.

Everyone gets bowled, caught, lbw, run out and stumped. Those who know their stuff also quickly come up with hit wicket and handling the ball. Obstructing the field is known by very few and people think you're lying when you eventually tell them about timed out.

And retired-out too, which has only happened twice in test history (both in the same match...)
