It's hard to be single in today's society. For one Chinese man, it was incredibly hard. So hard in fact, that depression overcame him and he began to take an inventory of things he did not need in his life. One thing he apparently didn't need was his penis...so, like any man trying to simplify his life, he cut it off.
Not anticipating the level of pain, Yang Hu, 26, reportedly hopped on a bicycle and headed for the hospital where he was told he could not be treated unless he had his penis in his possession. Unfortunately, Hu had left it at home. He rode back home, retrieved the severed penis, and returned to the hospital.
By that time, to his chagrin, doctors informed him that his penis had been without blood for too long and therefore they could not reattach it.
