December 1, 2007: Bottle X-ray
From Reuters:
Reuters provides the following:
| An x-ray of a glass bottle lodged in a man's lower abdomen is seen at the Nishtar hospital in Multan November 21, 2007. A 60-year-old man came to the hospital to have the Pepsi bottle removed, which he said armed thieves had inserted in his anus before robbing him of two buffalos, Dr. Abdul Manan, a surgeon at the hospital, said. |

Years ago I stumbled upon a page of x-rays of men with foreign objects stuffed up their butts. It was an actual medical page, not what you might think. I've wished a few times I still had that link. Funny stuff.

He paid the armed (with a Pepsi bottle?) men two buffaloes to have it stuck up there, and is now suffering (really suffering) from a severe case of buyer's remorse.

See? People that prefer Pepsi suck!

Having things rammed up your ass is generally frowned upon in Pakistan, so he probably gave them the animals to keep 'em quiet after the fun was over.

That had to hurt
Cloud Friday Nov 30 11:52 PM
how can we be sure the person is not merely holding a bottle in front?
(kinda stupid question, I'm sure--I can't even tell independently if it's a male or female pelvis)
But I can tell my left from my right! Uh . . . sorta.

Sort of a pre-frontal low bottle me. lol!!!

How about "I wonder if it was a cherry coke?" That's why they call it POP!
ZenGum Saturday Dec 1 11:08 AM
The whole thing was caused by the robbers imitating some badly misunderstood movie dialogue.
"You mother-copulater, I am going to cap some pop in your ass!"
EDIT Dammit Sheldon, you spoiled my joke by one lousy minute!

love it.
Cloud Saturday Dec 1 10:18 PM
I would like to point out, that as much fun as we are having with this, that this must have been the result of a horrific assault (assuming the news story is accurate), and that the theft of two buffalos, as funny as it sounds to us, may have deprived this person of most of his net worth, and the ability to harvest his fields, leaving the person broken and destitute.
Bryden Saturday Dec 1 11:59 PM
But can he get back the 5 cent deposit on the bottle?

What ever happened to Jerry Pentacoli and his gerbels?

yeah, y'all are just soooo sensitive!

There are a few things on this x-ray that don't look right or even human (apart from the bottle, obviously). There's a straight line and other unusual shapes that shouldn't be there.
It almost looks as if they've left the bottle in the Pepsi carton it came in, then x-rayed it on top of the man's stomach.
classicman Sunday Dec 2 04:06 PM
I am certainly not a radiologist, but it looks like the bottle is above all the other images in the x-ray.

However, it is certainly possible that the bottle is on top of, or even underneath, the patient. We just cannot tell from an x-ray.
I also noticed the shapes Kumbulu points out, and while some (the soft blurry patches at the top right, eg) are probably just soft tissue, the hard straight-lined shapes intersecting and to the right of the bottle have me very puzzled. I don't take them as being suspicious, though - if you were faking this shot why would you throw in a bunch of extra junk?
And Cloud is very right - if this is real it is a horrible, terrible thing. Most of the time I keep myself desensitized to the horrors of the world. They are so many and so bad that they'd be quite overwhelming and drive me to despair. Humor is a defense. I just have to guard against apathy and cynicism, though.

I would think it would look more like this.
