Wesley Warren Jr. -- the 44-year-old Las Vegas man whose 132 pound scrotum made headlines worldwide -- had surgery to resolve his condition, which is caused by an excess of watery fluid collecting around his testicles."

I remember reading about him a year or so ago. He was afraid to have the surgery for awhile.

Anyways this story always reminded me of this Southpark:

Local Man Stops Robbery By Quoting Pulp Fiction

Quote:
His quick thinking saved the day according to restaurant manager Ted Barkins. “He just started quoting movie lines from Pulp Fiction. The robbers kind of went berserk and then they just left.” Local hero, Paul Horner, who thwarted the would-be robbers said, “It was really lucky that I had my wallet with me that said ‘bad motherf*cker’ on it. The robbers came around demanding everybody’s wallet and I just held it up, you know like how Samuel L. Jackson did in Pulp Fiction.”

J. Peter Zegarra, California Doctor, Suggested Patient Have Oral Sex With Husband To Treat Gag Reflex

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/0...ref=weird-news

"J. Peter Zegarra, a California doctor, has been publicaly reprimanded by the state's medical board after he told a patient to practice oral sex on her husband. The patient had expressed concerns her gag reflex would interfere with an upper-gastrointestinal endoscopy, according to CBS affiliate KOVR.

The patient, an unidentified woman, complained that the Sacramento-based colo-rectal surgeon told her to practice oral sex on her husband "twice a week" prior to the procedure as a way of allaying the reflex."
