I wonder if alcohol was involved....

... he is Russian after all:

And he decided to engage in political protest by nailing his scrotum to the ground in the middle of Red Square.

You can't make this shit up.

Wow. I bet that stung. Looks cold too. No shrinkage?

Damn!

And all this time I thought it "took balls" for that 18-year-old German kid to fly a Cessna 172 into Soviet airspace and land it in Red Square.

This stunt raises the old phrase "it takes balls" to a whole new level!

took some doing too ... that's stone his nuts are attached to, not wood... could have been a commercial for industrial strength nails

oh yeah ... anyone can nail their sack to a sidewalk ... takes a man to stand up

[Guest032516]

I just watched the video. I didn't have the nerve to before.

It was all pixelated so there is nothing to see.

But look for the unpixelated video to make it onto the internet soon.

...or a nail gun.

I bet it probably hurt more getting his nuts freed from the nail. Can you imagine having to take a hammer to pry the nail out while the nuts are being squeezed onto the stone. OUCH
