Seems like far too many men took the wrong kind of inspiration from Justin Timberlake's 'D*ck in a Box' and causes less than pleasant situations for emergency services, with London Fire Brigade having to come to the aid of a man who got his penis stuck in a toaster.

Yes. A toaster. Someone needs to be listening to more Electric Six.

This story comes about as London Fire Brigade revealed they've been called out to over 1,300 incidents where people have managed to get themselves or their bits stuck in things, including nine instances of men with rings stuck on their penises, an adult stuck in a child’s toy car and a child with a tambourine stuck on its head. London Fire Brigade blame all this on 'Fifty Shades Effect', and say it all 'could be prevented with a little common sense'.

And to think we evolved all the way from bacteria in the ocean. What lofty heights await us.

(On a semi-related note, if someone could send us the Hot Dog Toaster pictured above, that'd be great)
