Genitals v puffer fish fight ends badly

[edesignuk]

A teenager in Cambodia has been hospitalised after an unfortunate incident involving an angry puffer fish and his genitals.

According to local media reports, the 13-year-old was attacked by the puffer fish after it got trapped in the boy's net. Once it was released, it made a beeline for the boy's groin, and bit it.

The Koh Santepheap newspaper printed a picture of him in hospital with his testicles heavily strapped following the attack. Metro (http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?in_article_id=179241&in_page_id=2).

Ouch. *grabs own junk*

Poor kid if the fish felt he could get that in its mouth...

I think in reality the kid was inspired by the voiceover thing that Yahtzee (of Zero Punctuation) tacked onto the end of his video reviews a few weeks back.

Too bad he lived in Cambodia.

Imagine the fun the other kids would have in class, and when the teacher asks "Bobby what did you do over summer vacation?" :p

The nicknames, the teasing, the chances of singing castrato in the chorus.

That's always a fight that ends badly.

That's always a fight that ends badly.

Sounds like you're talking from personal experience there... :rolleyes:

ouch. but a good story to tell your grandkids, provided you can have kids one day :p

[whooleytoo]

Wow. Amazing how much the puffer fish knows about human anatomy! :p

[Antares]

You know, there's something fishy about this story. ;)

13 is about the right age when you start experimenting. He could have been curious and that curiosity may have come back to bite him.

So much for "The Happy Fisherman"...
