No, but a guy died having an eel up his ass last year:

What's scary is that it isn't the first time someone put an eel up their ass in China, if you follow the second link in the article!

Japan porn has a fair amount of this stuff.
And tentacles.

The weirdest for me though, is the fetish of women crushing cockroaches and lobsters under their feet?

Wasn't this some sort of malcious gossip that St*ll*ne started ?

The urban myth about Richard Gere and the gerbil have been around for something like 20 years, maybe more. God only knows how it started. I wonder if anyone has ever asked Gere about it? I'd love to watch his reaction...

I'm thinking we could equip and train a regiment of special forces in Afghanistan to use felching as a weapon. The enemy would die laughing.

There was a punk band in the 80s called the Flaming Gerbils, I recall.

The rumor from the early '80s had Jim Nabors as his partner & animal trainer. Gotta love te rumor mill.

Paul is dead.

even if it was taped up, thats gotta hurt....ouch!

[Brandi Boots]

oh, but I did see a plastic Vibe at an adult store that was gerbil replica....even had a tail!

Ahh the story of "Lemmywinks" and his quest to escape the ass of the infamous.

I heard it was a donkey? That's what an asshole is for, surely?

[seamonkey]

The latest version of the story is that Jim Nabors stuck Richard Gere up his ass. The pool boy, trying to help get him unstuck, struck a match to see better. A flaming Gere was sent hurtling out of Nabor's ass whereupon it struck a neighbor's donkey, killing it instantly. The court litigation continues to this day.

Elton John wrote a song about the whole thing, which is going to be performed at the Superbowl halftime festivities this year.

....

I have long wondered how urban myths get started. Let's start one and see what happens, as a kind of sociological test. Any ideas?

[kilumanti]

As always people always hear half the story and then make up the rest. The gerbil was actually wearing a Richard Gear fancy dress costume and people just assumed the worst. Hope this clears things up.

Donkey? I don't think everyone's favorite Old Queen around here, tjinla2001, could fit a donkey up his rectum no matter how greased up it was. He'd probably give it a nice effort, though.
