Doctors in France had an unusual shift this weekend after a man came to the hospital with a historic artefact shoved up his anus.

A 24-year-old man came to the hospital in Toulouse, complaining about pain but offering no details.

Anal fascination

After entering surgery, it was discovered that he had pushed a 16x4cm World War One shell dating back to 1918 in his butt.

Doctors called the bomb squad, and the hospital was soon flooded with law enforcement and firefighters.

Firefighters confirmed to AR15 that they defused the bomb shell, and there was no further risk of danger.

The man, however, is still recovering from surgery and could face charges for violating France’s weapons legislation.

He’s not the only person who’s risked his life shoving rather – shall we say, unorthodox – items into his behind.

Inserted into his anus by drunk friends

A 45-year-old man risked losing his life after enduring 10 days with a metal cup stuffed up his rectum before finally seeing a doctor.

It was believed to have been inserted into his anus by friends as a drunken prank during a raucous party in Surat, Gujarat, a dry state of India.

The cup was around 3-4 inches in diameter and 6 inches long, according to local reports, and his attempt to remove it the following day backfired.

It lodged the item further up his rectum, but he spent days suffering in silence as he was too embarrassed to tell anyone.

Kilt-wearing pervert

And a kilt-wearing pervert shoved antique items into his anus last year – a makeup brush, an antique bottle opener, and a tobacco tin can.

Mitchell C Vest, 60, dressed in a kilt, was caught putting them up his hole before placing them back carefully on the shelves at The Antique Gallery in Houston, Texas.
