    Default Now that's gotta hurt...

    Specially to celebrate EA's return.

    Man nails testicle to roof.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

    An Austrian workman who slipped while working on a house nailed his own testicle to the roof with a nail gun.

    August Voegl, 59, from Jennersdorf, shot the four-inch nail into his left testicle with the compressed air nail gun.

    He was unable to extract it or pull himself away from the roof.

    Emergency medics were called in to separate the man from the roof after which he was airlifted to a nearby hospital where he is reportedly recovering well after surgery.

    Madre de dios, ruega para nosotros pecadores!!

    What on Earth did this guy do to generate this kind of karma for himself?!?! Reading the story, it seems he fired the nail into his testicle to the house while slipping and falling off the roof. That's right boys... his body weight falling to the ground was halted by his nut, nailed to the roof...

    Okay... if this is what people are resorting to in order to get an affordable vasectomy, maybe I need to rethink my opposition to government paid health care....

    You're not the only one! Kinda hard to justify the sort of outburst this causes when there are only 2 of you in the office . . .

    Plus I don't think there is a smiley that quite covers the eye-wateringness of it all.

    Me too! I was so wracked with laughter I couldn't read the post out to my colleagues (it's okay, really, it's our lunch break...)

    But I really shouldn't have laughed so much, poor guy. I really cringe for him....

    Not wanting to induce nightmares, but I couldn't read that without thinking of
    this wonderful item I'd read last month:

    Deckchair trapped testicles

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    A Croatian man got a nasty surprise when he tried to get out of his deck chair and found his testicles had got stuck.

    Mario Visnjic had gone swimming naked in the sea at the Valalta beach in western Croatia, reports 24sata.

    His testicles had shrunk while in the cool sea and slipped through the wooden slats when he sat back down on his wooden deckchair.

    But as he lay in the sun they expanded back to normal size and got stuck between the slats.

    He was eventually freed after he called beach maintenance services on his mobile phone and they sent a member of staff to cut the deck chair in half.


    [Having only now checked the source for the original story, it would seem
    that Ananova is the place to go as far as such horrors are concerned.]

    omg even worse then the chair. Another epic tale of stuckness, supposedly there is a method to get everything in when making love, all it takes is a belt and some hard labour, really makes things open up. But, if the belt snaps, the female pelvis clicks back in default mode, and that is not where you want to have your testicels. Why you would them there in the first place I don't really get, but it does make for amusing stories. Well, that is how they found this kinky couple after 3 days

    No worries; you can use the same belt, your neck, your knees and a bathtub and just do the job yourself.
