    What is the TV’s shadow? It seems like a pair of legs standing on a box and a small floating rectangle.

    The book, meanwhile, looks like a convoluted mess. Crashing spaceship, T-Rex/Godzilla, and what might be Dracula’s castle. If there’s a coherent story in this, I have got to read it. Book title? :P

      Book title?

      I happen to be reading the Sun Chronicles, a space opera with dinosaurs. No vampires though, but there are weird religious sects, genetically modified humans and space magic 🤷🏼 The best kind of convoluted mess.

      Author’s still working on the 3rd volume though.

      I can’t believe no one in the comments has told you yet. I want to tell you because I just learned about it last week! It’s horrible! A man in Russia, only legs & feet in the camera frame, squatted over an empty glass jelly jar with the lid on it, tons of lubrication, and he kept going until the entire jar was fully inserted in his rectum.

      Then you can hear an explosion sound. But it was an implosion sound. It was the sound of the jar being crushed & glass shattered inside of him. The man didn’t make a sound. Complete stoic silence which lends more creepiness to the video.

      Then we see tons of blood dripping out of him, down his legs, all over the floor. The man starts manually digging glass chunks out of his asshole. That’s all I remember. I never actually watched the video myself but that’s the description.

      Follow up: he never went to the doctor for this injury because he says he didn’t want to deal with the embarrassment. He had some scarring. He says he healed within a couple weeks. He says he has no regrets. He makes tons of fringe kink videos, this was apparently nothing unusual for him. But he waited until the event was far enough in the past before he posted the video online, over a year after it happened. It happened in August a few years ago. He posted it in December a year and a half later.

        This wasn’t “a few years ago”. It was probably closer to 15 or 20 years ago. I remember watching it in college.

        That being said, the description you gave is accurate. I’ve only seen it once, and that is exactly what is burned into my memory. Also the taste of Disaronno because that was the only bottle I’d snuck in, and I needed something to drink.

        I love how, in a roundabout way, you ended up demonstrating the point of the original image by providing us with “the jar guy incident” in a much more “engaging” literary form

          Ah thank you, I wish I could direct you to the original source I got that from, THEY were epic master storyteller because what I gave was my own version from memory of what they wrote. I think it was an article on vice dot com or some similar publication.

        After reading this and the replies, I am legitimately not sure if this is a joke or not. I’m not going to go try to find out, but if this is a joke, this is an absolute master class. Bravo.

        IIRC, didn’t he sort of shift his weight and the corner of the jar hit the ground and that’s what made it break?

        I’m not going to find it and watch it again, but that’s what I recall from never unseeing that more than a decade ago.

          Ah you actually saw the video. Thank you. The jar breaking from contact with the floor sounds a lot better than it breaking completely inside of him 😬

            I haven’t seen the video but I read the interview (equally gross), and it’s kinda like that. I don’t remember it hitting the floor but he admitted that it got a little crooked when it was going in, which was one of the main contributing factors.

            Apparently he had done it before (and continues to do so) with no issue because he filled them with water first, so the density counteracted the tension.

            Also he was like 50ish when it happened.

      The TV’s shadow has been edited to a still from an old shock-gore vid, “1 man 1 jar”. I don’t recommend looking it up.

        If there was enough light coming from the screen, it wouldn’t look like this. Therefore, we can conclude the guy is looking at a powered off TV.
