An Australian performer is recovering after seriously injuring his testicles.
The New York Post reports that David Friend, of the Puppetry of the Penis troupe, was performing in Australia at the Adelaide Fringe Festival when the accident occurred.
Friend, who conducts genital origami shows as part of the group, was doing his signature "The Bulldog" trick when he sat on a woman's lap.
She happened to have a corkscrew in her pocket from a trip to a winery earlier.
Doctors say Friend's testicles turned a "deep shade of purple" and he was advised to take a short hiatus from his act.
There is no word on whether any permanent damage was done.
