Man gets a USB cable stuck in his penis

OUCH

Rebecca Keane

When I envisioned my life as a journalist, readers, I decided I wanted to dedicate my life to only covering breaking news.

It’s a cold, glum Tuesday evening but some of us must soldier on and educate the masses and it’s a burden I’m willing to undertake.

We use USB cables for multiples things, charging phones, connecting keyboards to computers or plugging in devices – truly the USB cable is probably one of the most underrated yokes of our time.

According to METRO, however, one man went a bit overboard in showing appreciation for his USB cable, as he attached it to his penis.

d'oh

In the Shaanxi Province of China, one man got drunk and decided to look up videos to find out the best way to pleasure himself.

After watching multiple clips (one dreads to think what of), the man proceeded to connect himself to a cable.

Realising the trick backfired and that he was now stuck, the man went to hospital for removal of the cable.

The doctor, who eventually spent an hour surgically removing the 20cm cable in three parts from the penis, explained how the disastrous situation came to be

“He found a video online that taught him how to sexually stimulate himself with a charging cable, so he inserted one into his urethra.

“When the patient arrived he was in an incredible amount of pain.”

This comes as news as just last week, one man was found to have stuck a chopstick up his penis. 

The possibility of these two events being unrelated is yet unknown.
