Firefighters in Worms, Germany, were called in at a hospital in the area to help free a man from an awkward position he recently found himself in.
The man somehow found his penis stuck in the hole of a 2.5kg dumbbell disc, and the firefighters were called in to help on Friday.
“With the aid of the cutting grinder, a vibrating saw and a hydraulic rescue device, the weight could be removed after three hours. In the mission were the professional fire brigade and a firefighter of the voluntary unit city center,” said the fire station on Facebook.
One word of advice from them: do not try this at home … or the gym.
The post has been shared more than 5 000 times, with more than 35 000 comments from people who have a lot of questions about this accident.
