Now that's got to hurt. :eek:

Roofer nails testicle to roof
An Austrian workman who slipped while working on a house nailed his own testicle to the roof with a nail gun.

August Voegl, 59, from Jennersdorf, shot the four-inch nail into his left testicle with the compressed air nail gun.

He was unable to extract it or pull himself away from the roof.

Emergency medics were called in to separate the man from the roof after which he was airlifted to a nearby hospital where he is reportedly recovering well after surgery.

I can't imagine exactly what position his body would have been in to have accomplished such a feat as that, but it can't have been pretty.

I know someone who was stapled in the hand by a disgrunted girlfriend (these were the college years ;-) ) and man oh man he complained plenty about how painful it was. Kinda pales in comparison to this poor Ausie, though.

An advantage of using a screw gun instead of a nail gun?

A screw gun has a reverse!!
