Man's Groin Impaled On Steel Fence
<snip>

A man was impaled in the groin area when he fell from a first-floor balcony on to a steel fence in inner Melbourne early today.

A Metropolitan Ambulance Service spokeswoman said the man, in his early 20s, fell from the balcony of a terrace house in Rathdowne Street, Carlton, about 3.45am.

He was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital in a stable condition.

Metropolitan Fire Brigade station officer Craig Calwell said the man freed himself with the aid of emergency crews.

"We didn't use any rescue equipment. We supported him and he freed himself from the fence," he said.

Getting caught in the gears of a combine...having your nuts bit off by a Laplander, now that's a way to die.

3. I hope for him that the package was salvageable
I've heard of guys who have lost that part of their body before. They become horribly depressed as I think you can imagine.
