Your lower digestive tract is quite safe from any pool mishaps.

Depends on the size of the pool and all. I'm sure 400PSI would **** up your internals pretty damn bad. Pool or not :p

Oh good, because I was thinking of trying that.

80 gallons per minute is nothing anyway. Most pumps for small ponds do at least twice that at 0 head (0 feet uphill, no gravity to fight). Most CPU watercooling pumps do a good 300-350 gallons per minute.

This could be one of thouse things that could be so stupid it's funny, but this sounds like it passes from that, to the realm of killing off massive amount of brain cells and being not-funny anymore.

Actually, the wax in the dick thing is making me cringe constantly right now. Like, just thinking about something in my dick is really bothering me.

i have to agree, none of it really disturbed me, so i read it straight through. i have to admit to laughing at the carrot boy. and the candle? he really must've been smoking something good.

Oh, you guys read it. There's a humongous difference and disparity between hearing it and reading it.

Well, not that you can even ever experience 400 PSI of suction. In atmo the most you can get is a 14.7 PSI pressure differential and then the pump or whatever is just sucking vacuum. Even at the bottom of a 12 foot pool (assuming 12 feet of water = 1 atmosphere) the most suction you could ever experience is about 30 PSI. And it would take one hell of a pool pump to create vacuum.

Quick calculation: you'd have to be some THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN FEET underwater to possibly get 400 PSI. Not a depth that many people attain (I do remember a friend telling me about some video where a scuba diver got his leg sucked into an underwater pipeline and basically got ripped apart because of the pressure difference. Since pipelines usually have more pressure than 0 PSI, and the diver likely was not 315 feet down, it would have been much less than the 400 PSI mentioned in the story.)

So yeah; moral of this post is that Yoshi is right. 400 PSI would mess you up. Except it wouldn't be so tame as to merely rip your intestines out. It would probably suck you right through the grille and turn you into ground beef. Fun stuff.

Now, 400 PSI of pressure going the other way is much more feasible. That would make you explode.

**DISCLAIMER** I still do not recommend getting your *** sucked by a pool filter. First of all, it's disgusting for the other people that use the pool, and secondly, well, yeah. It's just gross. So don't do it.

this guy deserves a darwin award. seriously.


this is a fictional novel, not the evening news. this didn't actually happen. well im sure people have done all of these things, but yes he doesnt tell stories about things that happened word for word.

it's actually very intelligent how he gets his points across. he is very good at that. obviously.. 23 people. and seriously, coming from you, that means absolutely nothing.

I just realized something.

I just wrote three paragraphs on the physics of getting your intestines sucked out of your ***.

Someone please kill me now.

Better yet, I'll go sit on a pool filter.

I thought we decided that WOULDN'T kill you..

Oh, and finished it.

That was just...tofu (totally and obviously fouled up).
I had a blog. It sucked.

Lolerskates. Fainted? At that. I see worse in the ER about once every month or so. People are bored. The whole chewing through his own intestine thing, good times.

So I finally read it because I was curious, and I decided that it's really messed up.
