"BUCHAREST, Romania - A court has ordered a Romanian surgeon to pay $795,000 in compensation to a patient whose penis he accidentally severed during an operation. In July 2004, Dr. Naum Ciomu made a surgical error while operating on the man's testicles, severing the penis instead of making an incision to the testicle. The Bucharest Magistrates Court ruled Friday that Ciomu had been "superficial" in his approach to the operation, ordered the fine and handed Ciomu a one-year suspended prison sentence. The ruling can be appealed. A piece of muscle from the man's arm has now been attached to where his penis was, but its function is aesthetic. "You don't have to be an expert to realize that the 33-year-old victim does not have a good state of mind," said Mihai Olariu, the victim's lawyer."

7/4/2008 1:55:10 PM

The ultimate circumcision

7/4/2008 1:57:00 PM

I'm sorry...he can never feel sexually gratification.

That is worth a lot more than 800,000 frosties. That is not enough money to find another outlet...

7/4/2008 2:03:53 PM

"prostate stimulation"

It needs to be more like 8 million in the States...

7/4/2008 5:34:32 PM

^yeah i know...i've done that a few times over the past couple months to see how i'd like it(kinda cumbersome but with a chick doing it, who knows)


and i agree...800 thousand, even tax free, aint gonna last that long...i could probably figure out a way to stretch 8 mil tax free throughout a lifetime with proper investing etc

7/4/2008 5:37:07 PM

i could probably get enough people to contribute 1 dollar to give you that 800K josh

just to stop you from reproducing.

7/4/2008 6:28:19 PM

dnl, did you use a carrot?

7/4/2008 6:43:10 PM

lol hell no...i rarely eat veggies

7/4/2008 6:46:14 PM

who said anything about eating?

7/4/2008 8:01:15 PM

well if hes asking me if i used a carrot and i dont buy carrots how would i use a carrot?

7/4/2008 8:01:53 PM

anyone know how much you can make off 1 million in an average investment?

7/4/2008 8:04:02 PM

^^ you might have bought one for that specific purpose. you just said you don't eat them

^ well if you invest all of it and can make 6% (which is pretty modest), you could make $60000 a year.

[Edited on July 4, 2008 at 8:05 PM. Reason : ]

7/4/2008 8:04:32 PM

^lol you are the one suggesting i even bought a carrot

6% is barely keeping ahead of oil corn rice

7/4/2008 8:30:39 PM

it's probably not keeping ahead of it actually. but if you have $1 mil that's plenty to hire a pretty badass investment person and they could probably make like 15% at least.

7/4/2008 8:32:13 PM

if someone cut off my hot button, they would have to pay me 50 million and be burned alive

i'd prob still commit suicide tho

this is a terrible story

7/4/2008 9:37:40 PM

$800K is a fucking joke for a guy losing his dick. that x100 and we're getting to something reasonable..

i'd def turn into a heroin addict or at least use it to "get off" since i obviously couldnt any other way

god..on second though it'd suck to even have the $80M or whatever.. cause you'd buy a nice house, a nice car..be livin the life..then not be able to fuck all the hot new broads you'd be meeting

7/4/2008 9:42:04 PM

I have a hard time seeing this as an accident. I mean, not to be gross, but he would have had to have been using something longer than a scalpel for one slice to cut it completely off.

7/4/2008 9:44:58 PM

7/4/2008 11:38:17 PM

They put the 795,000 in $ so you have to assume they meant dollars.
