Especially for blokes.
This is in no way meant to upset anyone.
I had emailed to me by a collegue an article under the heading of a climbing harness mishap. It had graphic pictures of a man's scrotum with the testicles de-gloved. My wife thought it a little unlikely so searched around and found this link. (This is your last warning. Before you click understand that the pictures are very graphic)

The question I ask is has anyone seen anything like this, had it happen to them or can prove that it is actually possible.
I guess the major difference is a 6 point harness compared to a climbing harness and the fact that he stopped almost instantaneously from 100 kph.
