Or a laser cutter, but I'd have thought a block of ice would have worked after all you know the saying "what goes up must come down".

Unlikely the fire brigade would have much use for something more suitable.

Its easy to see why they'd have an angle grinder.

Less clear why the hospital doesnt have a better ring cutter tho
given that they must get some who get normal rings impossible
to get off fingers. Presumably because they are Irish.

Actually this is not uncommon. The usual treatment is ice so the errection
reduces enough for removal.

Maybe this is just the Irish method, over kill.

Using an angle grinder on a "titanium-based ring" must have produced a
decent shower of sparks.

So what was the angle grinder used for - actually to cut the ring or just to
make the man so scared that his penis deflated all by itself? :-)

I presume we aren't talking about a 6" (or bigger) diameter grinder but a
very small precision one with a great deal of control over its movement to
avoid taking a gouge out of flesh. Even heating of the metal by friction
would be a problem.

But it isnt clear what the Irish consider to be standard medical equipment.

I find it hard to believe that what is normally used to cut rings on fingers
that cant be got past knuckles cant be used to cut a ring on a dick unless
the dick ring was stupidly designed with much harder metal than finger
rings normally are or the ring is thicker metal so the jaws can't be opened
far enough or something.

Unlikely that the Eire fire brigade would routinely have one of those in the
fire truck.

to avoid taking a gouge out of flesh. Even heating of the metal by
friction would be a problem.

Corse the other real possibility is that some journo
utterly mangled what was actually used to cut the ring.

Lets not forget that immortal line that if you actually know
anything about what actually happened with a particular news
event, you can't even recognise it once a journo reports it.

a vibrating - not rotating - diamond cutter (dremel sized) will cut
anything hard but leave flesh alone as it just 'wobbles' a bit.

water solves that easily

And the sharper the cutter the less heast.

Yes, that would be fine for brass, silver or gold, not so good on
titanium (or stainless steel)!

The mistake that chap made with his 'poor chap' was in using a titanium
ring. Titanium is a bugger to machine (and therefore cut) unlike brass,
silver or gold (or even stainless steel).

It surprises me that the medics didn't think to use leeches which, just
for once ISTM, would have been a valid choice to drain the excess of
blood and deflate the erection. One has to wonder just how small a
diameter of ring did this chap choose to use on his 'chap'?

Part of the difficulty I suspect that if you get swelling beyond that
normally expected (i.e. things balloon up either side of the ring), even
a "normal" deflating may not be enough to slide it off. Add to that the
comment made in the video I linked above about how after 4 hours
ischemia sets in, and the blood basically starts to clot. Its then often
too thick to flow our via the normal mechanisms - and someone has to get
stab happy with something pointy!

They might if you tighten them after fitting.

Does "clot" describe the congealed blood or the person who uses the ring -
or both? :-)

Part of the difficulty I suspect that if you get swelling beyond that

a "normal" deflating may not be enough to slide it off. Add to that

Your knowledge of the subject is disturbing, John!

Not half as disturbing as the remedies suggested by the urologist in
the
video ;-)

fx: crosses legs



Would anyone here be stupid enough to use a titanium ring when they
probably have some cable ties in the tools box?

Don't they pinch?



They might if you tighten them after fitting.
I was thinking of the velcro ones at the time.
Maybe you were thinking of the metal fold over ones?

Just the normal zip tie nylon type...
