A show called Circus Of Horrors lived up to its name when a dwarf accidentally glued his penis to a vacuum cleaner.
Captain Dan The Demon Dwarf was taken to hospital when he became stuck to the the machine after misreading superglue instructions.
The 42-year-old pulls the vacuum across the stage with his manhood at the Edinburgh Fringe production.
Its attachment came loose before a performance so he tried to glue it back on.
He left it to dry for 20 seconds rather than 20 minutes – and it stuck to him when he tried it out.
'It was the most embarrassing moment of my life,' he explained. 'When I got wheeled into a packed A&E on a wheelchair with a Hoover attached to my willie, I just wished the ground could swallow me up.'
Staff at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh managed to remove the attachment after an hour.

Now there is a sticky situation I would not like to be in. At least it wasn't a henry tank cleaner as I wouldn't want people getting the wrong impression of me.

I wonder what the act was? Vacume cleaners, a dwarf and his penis sounds bizarre! It's a lucky thing it was a freak show where they can get away with such a thing!

It's funny because he's a dwarf.
