2 penis
A German who persuaded doctors to give him a second penis has lost his wife after he showed her the result.
Biker Michael Gruber lost his original penis in a motorbike accident and doctors built him a second one using a mixture of skin, bone and other tissues from his own body.

The penis worked so well that he was even able to father a child with his wife Bianca. But Gruber asked doctors to repeat the operation and build him a better organ. However, before removing the first penis surgeons left the old one attached until the new one could be properly supplied with blood.
But when Gruber showed his wife his double penis, she went home, packed her bags and left.
From his hospital bed he said: "I've got two penises but no wife, but I am hoping when I get rid of one of the penises I will get her back."
