A patient came into emergency with barbecue tongs hanging out of his back end. Unfortunately, the patient lost his bedroom toy so far up his colon that he couldn’t pull it out. He thought he would be able to reach the thing and pull it out with the barbecue tongs. Well, the tongs don’t make a complete loop, and hooked onto the inside of his sphincter.

He wasn’t able to pull the tongs out and had to go to surgery to remove everything.
