    Default Dropping the ball(s)

    Normally this would have been a perfectly safe promise to make...


    Rugby fan cut off his own testicles
    8 February 2005
    A Welsh rugby fan cut off his own testicles after his team beat England, police confirmed today.
    The man was rushed to hospital after the incident at Leigh Social Club in Caerphilly, South Wales.
    A Gwent Police spokeswoman said: "We received a call from the ambulance service at approximately 9pm on the 5th to inform us of a situation at the Leigh Social Club in which a man had indeed severed his own testicles."
    She said the man was taken to Heath Hospital but could not confirm his condition.
    It was reported that the man told his friends: "If Wales win I'll cut my own balls off."
    After the 11-9 victory in the Six Nations clash, the man is reported to have gone outside and severed his testicles before bringing them back into the club to show fellow drinkers.
    A local was reported as saying that the man was on medication and should not have been drinking.

    I can't even imagine doing that to my self under any circumstances (and i'm really trying not to imagine it). I suppose he is somebody you should be able to trust though, as he kept his word on that.

    Bear in mind people this was in the Sun.. The paper most likely out of any in the UK to actually make stories like this up, it has been proven before...

    When someone read this out - yes some feel compelled to buy the Sun - in my philosophy class we all burst into laughing - what can possess a person to do that?! Of course though, it depends if the story is actually real.

    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.

    I heard the same thing on the radio today. Sadly, because I was half asleep, I thought it was the Superbowl... but I was wrong. But that is very pathetic, if you ask me!

    It was in the Evening Standard too, just before anyone runs away with the idea I was reading the Sun... (only when I am waiting to get my hair cut)

    Respect to whoever took a copy of the Sun into a philosophy class. He's either going to get a A* or fail.

    Trustworthy? I wouldn't trust someone who cuts off his own family jewels. If he's willing to hurt himself like that, what might he do to me?
