So, it seems that this Chinese gentleman decided to have a bath in a tub full of eels.  He's in his 50s, and he'd heard that if you bathed with eels they would take off your dead skin and make you look younger.

Unfortunately for him, though, things didn't work out as he'd planned:

Bottom line?  An eel swam up his penis.

Not to worry, though.  Doctors were able to remove the eel from his bladder, where it had ended up.     

The candiru fish in the Amazon is attracted to urine and will swim up a person's urethra, put hooks into the surrounding flesh, and start feeding. Damn!

As for this guy, the eel must have been very thin. I can't imagine anything swimming up a penis. It must have hurt like hell.
