QuoteMedics at Southampton General Hospital could not get the man's penis out of the stainless steel pipe because the restricted blood flow had caused it to become aroused.

So they called in Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service.

They turned up with a special equipment unit from St Mary's station in Southampton and seven firefighters to help in what a spokesman said was a ''delicate operation''.

The firefighters used the four-and-a-half-inch grinder to cut the pipe from around the man's penis and it took about 30 minutes.

The patient was given an anaesthetic and his penis was left bruised and swollen but otherwise unharmed.

Im sure you guys can come up with something to say about this that makes me LMAO.

Laying pipe can be hard work sometimes...

They should have tried spraying the guy with icy cold water from a garden hose.

Might not work, but what the hell, it would be kind of funny.

Gives new meaning to the phrase "pipe snake".

Jeez, when I first glanced at the title, I got as far as "removed."

Then I read "from pipe" and relaxed immediately.

Must have been quite a job getting that off with a grinder. You'd have to stop cutting every time the pipe heated up, unless they used water on it or something. Probably not a job for the jaws of life, but I'd have hauled them out anyway, just to see the look on his face.

Seriously, when you work in a hospital you learn that people put their unit into some rather awful things.
