- Tabris, on 10/12/2007, -3/+237He was eventually freed after he called beach maintenance services on his mobile phone and they sent a member of staff to cut the deck chair in half.
Cutting it in half is 230809x funnier than using ice hahahahaaa
"Hey, 911? Yeah it's Quagmire. It's in the window this time" - UncommonSense, on 10/12/2007, -6/+130In the lawsuit-happy nation of America, don't be surprised if you see this label on deck chairs: WARNING: Do not insert nuts.
- conan359, on 10/12/2007, -4/+126I'd rather cut the chair than ice my balls personally.
- apocalizer, on 10/12/2007, -6/+103This is the most ***** up story I've seen on Digg's front page in a while. LOL
- ahhell, on 10/12/2007, -5/+73Actually the warning should say: May contain nuts.
- daveyt, on 10/12/2007, -8/+66I am acutely aware of the location, texture, size and feel of my testicles during every waking, and semi-waking moment of my life. I check for their presence every 6 seconds or so, as does every man alive (those with balls). If my balls had got trapped between 2 wooden slats I would know in a heartbeat.

I don't think I have ever seen a more appropriate Family Guy reference in a Digg comment. I read that 15 min ago, and I'm still laughing. - dclowd9901, on 10/12/2007, -7/+46What I can't understand is why he was just chilling there with his balls hanging through his deck chair. Did he like the feeling of his balls dangling in the breeze or something?
- olddirtycr, on 10/12/2007, -6/+40Well obviously you have no nuts to check so i'll tell you. Yes they do, i've been in a near freezing lake came out and checked my nuts, they were smaller than i've ever seen, i thuoght they disapear, 5 minutes later they were bowling balls.
- Nougat, on 10/12/2007, -3/+37I don't know about anyone else, but I wouldn't be sitting on a wooden deckchair with my sac in the wind in the first place. He's lucky he didn't get a sliver.
- dark1152, on 10/12/2007, -6/+39Could they not have used ice!? Poor deckchair, you were oh so comforting too.
- ate50eggs, on 10/12/2007, -4/+36Man...that's nuts. I bet he was pretty testy when he got free.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+32Have you ever been in the ocean?
- thatbox, on 10/12/2007, -3/+28What he's saying is he'd go HEY MY BALLS ARE HANGING BETWEEN SLATS I THINK I'LL FIX THAT before anything stupid happened.
- joeydoo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+23Say you are on a beach, nuts trapped in a chair, where in the name of that mans balls are you going to find some ice????
What you should have suggested, and he should have done, is nut dragged that chair into the sea, nuts and all.
But getting from the sitting position to standing whilst not pulling on nuts would probably been tricky. Also getting the leverage to pull himself along with his legs, with a chair in the sand, would also be difficult.
I'm probably over thinking this. Though it always pays to be prepared, especially if your nuts are at stake. - eric0213, on 10/12/2007, -3/+22I don't think an ice cube would be sufficient to get the amount of required shrinkage. I would guess you'd need an ice bath. This is all speculation though.
Like you said, the thought of him standing up quickly does make you want to vomit. But can you imagine icing them down and testing periodically if they've shrunk enough?
Icer: "OK, try it now"
Icee: [Vomits] "Nope, not yet"
Icer: "OK, try now"
Icee: [Through tears] "I don't want to. Really, I don't mind being stuck in this chair. I rather like this chair."
If they people that owned the chair were willing to cut it (and what man wouldn't do that for another man?), I'd take them up on it. - orenthal, on 10/12/2007, -6/+22@armbar
so whats your point? - Germanicus, on 10/12/2007, -3/+17i think you may be right. I don't think testicles shrink... doesn't your nutsack just contract to put your testicles closer to your body for more warmth? The size stays.
- Urusai, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15What, been divorced?
- Chompy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15"What I can't understand is why he was just chilling there with his balls hanging through his deck chair. Did he like the feeling of his balls dangling in the breeze or something?"
Well yeah.. that actually does sound pretty comfortable. - eric0213, on 10/12/2007, -3/+16"Waiter, one margarita on the rocks please."
- cambrown99, on 10/12/2007, -5/+16The Janet Reno joke would have been funny ten years ago...
- Blizzard77, on 10/12/2007, -5/+16I hope he didn't stand up FAST to find out they where stuck.......Just the thought of that makes me want to vomit. I agree with dark1152, why not use ice. There is no way in hell I am letting some hotel monkey boy come near my boys with something that is sharp.
- buck09, on 10/12/2007, -4/+14This reminded me of a Fark thread several months ago where a guy was in same situation, asking the Fark community for help:
http://forums.fark.com/cgi/fark/comments.pl?IDLink=2018473 - tubaros, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11I read exactly the same story, albeit in a different country about 3 months ago... I reckon its just a internet urban legend imho..
- blaineg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Like a frightened turtle!
- lane.montgomery, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10As opposed to some other common denominator? I've never understood this because when you change two fractions to their lowest common denominator, often you more often than not raise the value of the denominator. For example, 2/3 and 1/5 become 10/15 and 3/15.
Even then it doesn't matter because the value of the fractions do not change, just their expression. So even though I understand what is meant by "lowest common denominator", where the F does it come from? - sundby, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Digg this so they mention it on the show for some extra entertainment :p
- dshPls, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11I saw an episode of Cops where a guy got his wang sucked into a pool filter, the fire department had to free him
- skankyBacon, on 10/12/2007, -5/+11Except:
1) Not everybody reads Fark
2) No one's claiming credit for the story
3) Who cares? - beervolcano, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5@ joeydoo:
"nut dragged that chair"
I believe I have found my new favorite phrase! - jotux, on 10/12/2007, -5/+10Just show him a picture of Janet Reno...that would make them shrivel up and hide again.
http://images.google.com/images?q=janet%20reno - BaconBits, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5As for common denominator, 15 is a common denominator, so is 30, 45, 60, etc. 15 would be the lowest of those, so lowest common denominator.

- rprouse, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6I wonder what he was up to? I can just see it,
"Honest, I was just swimming by and I got sucked into the filter opening!"
Just like all of those crazy vacuuming naked injuries ;) - aggrazel, on 10/12/2007, -7/+10I was in the pool!!!
- alecks, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3what i don't get is that your scrotum also shrinks... so how did they slip in if the damn bag is tight? unless the bag loosed, sliped between, then the balls expanded.
damn.. - dhakbar, on 10/12/2007, -2/+44) Fark's comment system is far worse than Digg's, with 50x more partisan bigotry.
Reading discussions here is entertaining. Reading Fark discussions is disappointing. - NSMike, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I'm not sure about it being an internet legend... I heard this on two local radio stations this morning on my drive to work. Of course, they might have just hit up Annanova.
- OBKenobi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2First this, then the Serb with the toolbox in his stomach. What are they smoking down there in the Balkans?
Did the guy with the trapped balls look like this by any chance?
http://www.abc.net.au/news/features/img/Entertainmentblog/2005/december/20051214borat.jpg - betteroffalone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2you check for their presence every six seconds? Wow you must look awkward at work.
- enivid, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5this comment in fark is priceless:

Wooden chair?
Set fire to it! Once reduced to ashes it should slip right off. - wolfzombie, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Why?! Why did you post that!?
The thought of the pain alone has me talking like Mickey Mouse! - HP844182, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I was in the pool!
- spectre_25gt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I just spent the last half hour laughing uncontrollably.
- joeydoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1.....Margret Thatcher helping you free your nuts.... ......with her teeth....... and she hasn't taken them out of her mouth......
your nuts would recede so fast they would just take the chair up with them up into your torso. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Oops..."...better isolation..." should be "better insulation".
Since the testicles are more "bean"-shaped they could have rotated, thus getting stuck once under the chair. - eurotransient, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2That's a good point. Maybe that's why the elected to just cut the chair apart rather than just ice the Croat's brain.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2OW!! Just. . .OW!!!
