This is a story from a wonderful new show called ‘Sex sent me to the ER’…
Like hot sauce, Conor McGregor and seagulls, you don’t mess with super glue. The clue is in the name and unless you are very careful, you will end up with your hand stuck to the ornament/model plane/teapot you were trying to fix.
But there are worse things your hand could get stuck to. A lot worse.
US TV station TLC are launching a new series called ‘Sex sent me to the ER’. Really, what a time it is to be alive, folks. Anyway, a story from the first show features a man in a very sticky situation.
The Chicago doctor who treated the man explains it all.
“The night before, [the patient’ was fixing his lamp next to his bed and he left the superglue tube on the nightstand,” the Doc tells the show. But when the poor man and his wife were getting frisky, he reached for some lubrication he kept on the self same nightstand. You can guess the rest from there.
“He went a little too fast, and — voila! — his hand became stuck to his penis,” Valente said.
He then goes into some excruciating detail.
“This was a large amount of skin that was affixed together,” Valente said. “There wasn’t just a small amount of glue. It wasn’t just one finger. It was, in fact, his entire palm and all his fingers, which were tightly affixed to his genitals.”
The options for freeing the hand, such as pouring acetone (very painful) or very hot soapy water (also painful) were not good but eventually the man was freed.
