A man is planning to have a TESTICLE chopped off then sell it to scientists for £22,000.

Ballsy Mark Parisi will appear on a reality TV show undergoing surgery that will see one of his testicles removed - then replaced with an artificial orb.

He said: "What you do is you go in and you donate one of your testicles, they replace it with an artificial one and when you check out after 14 days you get a cheque for $35,000."

Mark, from Las Vegas, regularly enrols in clinical trials but says he is "anxious anxious and excited" ahead of this study.

Penny-pinching Mark will appear on the aptly named Extreme Cheapskates programme, showing on TLC in America on Wednesday.

The compensation for being a human guinea pig means he doesn't need to dip into his full-time salary - and he has an array of surgical scrubs to wear at home.

Gonna take his ball, and go home.

I bet he's gonna have a ball.

I really wish you guys would grow a ball and support this guy

I can't think of an amount of money I would have a ball chopped off for. Certainly not £22,000. Not £100,000. A million for a ball?

I'd do it for 100k. I don't need that ball for anything.

35k would be more than enough for lifetime supply of testosterone.

this is no brainer call

anybody can please tell me where i can report about pokerstars, coz pokerstars make unfair with me.

Did they take one of your testicles?

Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine.

Hap Hapablap is head of the pokerstars make unfair complaints team. Send him a personal message. Make sure to make your message both threatening and graphic.

Good luck Mithela, I hate it when people make unfair with me.

I'm sure Hap Hapablap will sort everything out for you.

When I was a teen I knew a guy who lost one in a hockey game as a goalie... pretty good aim on the shooters part.

Anyway, sometimes he'd be invited to one of our parties. While in the liquor store we'd suggest that he only buy a half sack (that's a six pack of beer) so he'd remember what's it's like to be a full man again.

Cool story bro. You're a funny guy.

Here is your play dude.

Send the rest of your money to Lock Poker.

That will teach those jerks at PS a lesson.

And for the hell of it.

Mail one of your balls to PS.

Icing on the cake.

This thread is unintentionally hilarious and awesome.

I wouldnt do it for any amount of money.

Glad that you keep us updated on when any kind of ******ed stuff anywhere in the world happens Yodas

i'd do it for $35K ... hell, sign me up now. anyone know where he's doing this? google doesn't really help.

I'd chop your ball off if you gave me $35k

I opened this thread thinking some1 grabbed a homer @ Fenway Park during the world series. Big letdown.

"All I got in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break either of 'em for nobody"

I doubt Tony Montana will be accepting this offer any time soon?

2nd ball is worth much more than the 1st.

uh... this!
