"Yes,
I came face to face with a lion once. And as luck would
have it, I was alone and without a gun."
"What did you do?"
"What could I do? First, I tried looking straight
into his eyes but he slowly came toward me. I moved back,
but he kept coming nearer. I had to think fast."
What's a penis worth? $795,000, according to a court
ruling.
The court in Bucharest, Romania, ordered a doctor to pay that amount
in compensation after surgery that went horribly wrong.
The Romanian surgeon was ordered to hand over the money to a patient
whose penis he accidentally severed during a botched operation.
The court was told that 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.
