Author Topic: Man blows off own testicles with shotgun Matthew Bailey Master Film Handler Posts: 461 From: Port Arthur,TX Registered: Sep 2000 posted 07-15-2004 08:37 PM                     Found this in the Anime Nation anime forums. A Reuters report from London reads:A British man who accidentally shot himself in the testicles after drinking 15 pints of beer was jailed for five years on Tuesday for posessing an illegal firearm, a court spokesman said. David Walker,28,was arguing with a friend at a pub in South Yorkshire,northern England,when he went home to get his sawed-off shotgun which he placed in his trousers. But as he walked back to the pub,the gun discharged,blasting pellets into his testicles. Doctors removed what remained of his testicles during emergency surgery. Walker admitted posessing an illegal weapon in June at the Sheffield court.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 07-16-2004 01:04 AM                        Have a link?  |  IP: Logged Nate Lehrke Master Film Handler Posts: 396 From: Denver, CO Registered: Oct 2002 posted 07-16-2004 03:46 AM                     Joe just wants to see the pictures!  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 07-16-2004 03:57 AM                        Nope.

She said that it was the most difficult story she'd had to read since one which mentioned the leader of Papua New Guinea's armed forces, a general Jack Twatt! If you click on 'listen again' you'll be able to catch it for the next week; it was the very last item on the programme, I think, so move the slider towards the end once the streamed audio starts playing.  |  IP: Logged Bill Enos Film God Posts: 2081 From: Richmond, Virginia, USA Registered: Apr 2000 posted 07-16-2004 05:20 PM                     The jail time after shooting his own nuts off seems to be cruel and unusual punishment. This dumbass has suffered enough.  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

After all, he clearly is an idiot, imagine what could have happened if he had made it to the bar with the shotgun. Does deballing also make you impotent?  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-16-2004 10:08 PM                     Aah!!

If both testicles are lost, you will be impotent. Most of the testosterone men carry is produced in the balls. Without them you're not going to have any sex drive. Even worse, you have other possible, bad side effects (I did a quick Google search on the subject, under testicle cancer -the most common way a fellow will lose his nads). Without testicles, you'll be prone to symptoms Women suffer in menopause like hot flashes. Depression is common. Also without testosterone, your chances will be higher to develop cancer and osteoporosis of the skeleton. Since this guy used a shotgun on his crotch, he probably caused irreversible damage to other areas of his reproductive system, such as the lymph nodes and nerves in the groin area which allow you to climax normally rather than leak sperm into your bladder. So even if doctors were able to salvage one ball, it probably still wouldn't work for him. This story reminds me of that testicle cancer support group in "Fight Club."  |  IP: Logged
