British dwarf's penis gets stuck to hoover

There are some accidents and problems in life that are unavoidable. You just can't see them coming no matter how wisely you plan. Other incidents, however, are perhaps a little more predictable.

Yahoo reports on the case of the dwarf performer at the Edinburgh fringe festival who had to be rushed to hospital after his penis got stuck to a vacuum cleaner.

The main part of his act saw him appear on stage with a vacuum cleaner attached to his member through a special attachment.

The attachment broke before the performance and Blackner tried to fix it using extra-strong glue, but unfortunately only let it dry for 20 seconds instead of the 20 minutes required.

He then joined it directly to his organ. The end result? A solid attachment, laughter, mortification and ... hospitalisation.

"It was the most embarrassing moment of my life when I got wheeled into a packed AE with a vacuum attached to me," Blackner said.

I'm thinking, you play with fire, you're probably going to get burnt!

The really ludicrous thing is his embarrassment. I mean, he pulls around a vacuum cleaner on stage by his penis for a living. And yet as soon as he goes to hospital he gets all shy. Nutter!
