..is not quite what I thought it would be.

BBC said:
A performance artist has been detained in Moscow after stripping naked and nailing his scrotum to the cobblestones of Red Square in a protest.

Excuse me while I wince like a pansy and throw up a little bit of sick. :( :( :(

Also, how do you nail into those cobblestones, are they made of MDF or something? Missing would hurt a bit more than your thumb as well, I'm guessing.
 
Dunno about missing, hitting the nails would hurt enuff considering what they were driven through! :eek:

You have to hand it to the bloke. That is a bit more extreme than the protests we get here.

Instead of setting up a tent and dossing on the steps of St. Pauls, perhaps the last lot there should have nailed various appendages to traffic cones to make it a bit more interesting.
 
Google image his name. He's done loads of stupid stuff while accomplishing nothing.
 
He nailed his ball sack to the ground...odd.

Whilst it is his ballsack, it's still only skin. Wouldn't have hurt that much really. Now, if he stuck a nail threw the testie itself...well that's a different matter.
 
The thing is with "extreme" protesting, I can't remember the last time I saw a headline along the lines of, "Goverment does a U-turn on policy due to man setting himself on fire!"

Does it ever work?
