Everything about this little parody is wrong. But wrong in the finest way.

The late nineties wanna have a word.

The absolute repulsiveness and depth of depravity that the internet offered at that time…

Tubgirl. 2 girls, one cup. 1 guy, one jar. The semi-hilarious clip of one young lady offering fellatio to three gentlemen dressed as pterodactyls (side question, did pterodactyls have dicks?)

Homosexual dinosaur porn “gentleman with a tyranasaurus”.

The good old days.

For scale, that’s about the length & not quite the diameter of my arm from armpit to the base of my fingers. And I’m a normal, albeit slender, American grown-up sized guy.

This guy is/was clearly no amateur at strange-stuff-into-ass stuffing.

Maybe the guy wanted to eat the eel post-coitus and season it with a touch of lemon.

Perhaps we’re all jumping to conclusions. It’s possible the guy put the lemon up his ass, as we all do from time to time, and it got stuck. So then, realizing that he had an eel to hand, he formulated a plan to retrieve the lemon using the eel as a tool. Seems legit to me.

No, the lemon went in second. Look at the second link in the OP, which is a more detailed report from the hospital website:

> [BSCK II Le Nhat Huy](https://benhvienvietduc-org.translate.goog/bac-si/le-nhat-huy?_x_tr_sl=vi&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp) - Deputy Director of Colorectal - Perineal Surgery Center [https://benhvienvietduc.org/khoa/tt-phau-thuat-dai-truc-trang-tang-sinh-mon](https://benhvienvietduc.org/khoa/tt-phau-thuat-dai-truc-trang-tang-sinh-mon), Friendship Hospital Viet Duc said: The hospital immediately arranged a team of endoscopy doctors, anesthesiologists… to conduct a colorectal endoscopy to consider removing foreign objects endoscopically through the anus. However, when the scope was inserted through the anus, the surgical team discovered a large lemon, 4cm in diameter, blocking the high rectum. Unable to access the eel through the anus, accompanied by increased pain, the team decided to perform emergency surgery. When opening the abdomen, doctors discovered an eel about 65cm long and 10cm in circumference alive inside the patient’s abdomen. The eel bit through the patient’s rectum and colon to get out of the abdomen.
> 
> After removing the eel, the doctors pushed the lemon out through the anus. Checked that there were no other foreign objects, the rectal-colon perforation was sutured. However, because the rectum was very dirty and fecal fluid was leaking into the abdomen, the doctor decided to take the upper colon out of the abdomen to prevent feces from flowing through the newly sewn hole.

“Before you hit send, ask yourself: Is it kind? Is it necessary? Is it clear?“

This maxim applies equally to sending an email, or inserting an animal into your rectum.

Oh, yeah. My first concern was for the eel. Come on.

Is there any mention whether the beast was alive or dead at the time of surgery?

I am quite surprised and fairly horrified that the eel was still alive at that point.
