A 79-year-old Japanese man managed to get an entire 90-inch jump rope stuck in his bladder. The study published in Urology Case Reports says that the unidentified man inserted the rope through his urethra, but the handle-less rope got tangled and became stuck in his bladder.
He went to the doctor complaining that he was having trouble urinating, and they found the rope with an X-Ray. The man admitted what had happened but didn’t explain why he did it. The only way to remove the rope was with surgery; the man recovered and suffered no long-term injury.
