You can find this in the junk online news stories, but it shows a man in a Ukraine hospital having a metal nut removed from part of his anatomy (yes, that part)... Note the handy bottle of "bon aqua".

Bloody hell. The mind boggles as to how it got there
Cheers Mark.

Suppose he was trying to bust a nut

He managed.



Pretty blooming impressive. As to how it got there, I guess he fell onto his tooltray with nothing on. He blamed his wife and said he would, err, wait for it, file for divorce.

file for divorce.

He has since found a new partner on Grindr.

I almost replicated this today trying to remove the ball-joint on my Blue 1.7 to get the strut off for repairs. The castellated nut on the ball-joint (which I had partially unscrewed) couldn't take the pressure from the separator. Fortunately, I could tell it was stressed situation so I had the safety glasses on which was lucky as I might have had a castellated eye-ball otherwise.



Just got to find another nut with the right profile ;-0
