China: Man 'who had sex with park bench' cut free

Is this a new Olympic sport or what?

8-12-2008 China:

A man had to be cut free by doctors after becoming stuck while trying to have sex with a park bench.

Police and medical personnel were called to Lan Tian park in Hong Kong after the man, named as 41-year-old local Le Xing, got into difficulty after he put his penis through a hole in the bench and got stuck when he became aroused.

Mr Xing, described in reports as "lonely and disturbed", told police that he thought it would be fun to have sex with the bench.

When officers and doctors arrived at the scene they tried to release some of the pressure by removing some of his blood. But their efforts proved unsuccessful, forcing them to cut the bench from the ground and take it, with Xing attached, to a city hospital.

It took doctors four hours to cut him free. They later said that if he had been stuck for just an hour longer they may have been forced to amputate his penis.

There have been several recent cases of people having sex with unusual objects. In May 2008, Edward Smith, claimed to be involved in an intimate relationship with a white Volkswagen Beetle.

Separately, Scot Robert Stewart was placed on the sex offenders register after being caught having trying to copulate with a bicycle. ..News Source.. by David Thomas
