    An 88-year-old man caused the partial evacuation of a hospital in Toulon because of a shell stuck in his anus. It’s an unusual story. This weekend, an 88-year-old man presented himself to the emergency room of Sainte Musse hospital in Toulon… with a First World War shell stuck in his anus.

    The octogenarian claimed to have found this shell 18 cm long by 9 cm wide at his brother’s house, according to a police source at BFM Toulon Var.

    As a first step, the hospital management organized a partial evacuation of the establishment to the main hall, with the help of security and the fire department, to manage this almost unbelievable bomb threat.

    “We then had to treat our atypical patient, who immediately ensured that the shell was demilitarized”, explains one of the hospital staff members to the Var-Matin newspaper.

    To be sure, the hospital called in a demining team, which quickly eliminated any risk of explosion, the shell being considered “collectible”.

    The surgery team then swung into action, performing a visceral operation to retrieve the object through the abdomen. A witness reports to Var-Matin that the patient came out “in good health”.

  4. Poor man fell right on top of one of those, could happen to anyone, get better soon

  5. Was it 100% the British who shoved it up there and not the French dude sitting on it for pleasure purposes?

  6. Typical French man. My sister works in ER and she told me one time a guy showed up with the Eiffel Tower stucked in his ass. It was stucked at 2nd floor and he said he accidentally “fell on it”.

  7. Honnestly still shoving things up his arse at 88, you gotta admire that!

    More sexually active than most of redditors.
