Man ends up with barnacle stuck to his penis

A man sleeping on a beach ended up with a barnacle stuck to his penis.

The 23-year-old had been lying in shallow water to escape the heat in Bor, Yugoslavia.

He had to go to the accident and emergency department of the local hospital after being unable to get rid of the crustacean himself.

Hospital sources say a nurse initially failed to remove it with tweezers.

Daily newspaper Glas Javnosti reports medics only managed to free the barnacle when the embarrassed man got an unplanned erection.

A hospital spokesman said: "We are not allowed to comment on the patients we treat but we would not say that the newspaper report was wrong."

the embarrassed man got an unplanned erection.

My first thought is HOW? He has a barnicle attached while someone tries to peel the thing off with tweezers. NOW he gets an erection? Ah, to be 23 again....

Probably because she was laughing so hard she couldn't hold the tweezers (or anything else) still.

scientific research ping! ;)

Unfortunately, I have no real expertise in the field of penis barnacles - let me ping some professionals for their opinion...
