A personal trainer got a weight plate stuck on his penis

The 24-year-old personal trainer from India thought that he could "transform" his private parts in a similar way to his biceps and quads.

In his bizarre method, the unnamed man inserted his flaccid penis through the hole of the metal plate that weighed roughly 3kg.

He then stimulated himself in a bid to lift the weight with his erect member.

The man "ignored" the "mild" pain and swelling he felt after his experiment began and continued in "excitement", according to an account published by medics in the journal Urology Case Reports.

The experts wrote: "After sometime, when the intensity of pain and swelling increased in his penis, he tried to remove the weight but couldn't do so.

"He panicked and decided to visit the doctor."

The man went to hospital two hours after placing the weight on his penis - which urologists described as "incarcerated".
