WA daredevil body-slams cactus

It was a dare that could only end in disaster – and a lot of pain.

Footage posted on YouTube yesterday shows a young shirtless WA man, who introduces himself as Jeffabel, shrieking in agony after body-slamming a cactus.

His friends rush to drag him from the plant, where he lies in hysterics after taking a run up from a car roof and launching himself into its spines.

"Pull my legs over, f--king pull my legs over," he begs.

His two friends scramble to remove the sharp spikes embedded in his back.

Despite his screams, Jeffabel is no stranger to pain.

February 18, 2013: A member of online stunt group 'Children of Poseidon' attends a Perth hospital after his friends superglue his mouth shut.

He is a member of Children of Poseidon, a group of stuntmen who throw themselves into painful and dangerous situations for the sake of entertaining their fans.

The group promised fans that one of their members would perform a cactus body-slam if they managed to get 3000 likes on Facebook.

They posted the video on the page yesterday, describing the latest stunt as "one of the most painful things ever".

The group has posted a number of stunt videos and requests for ideas since launching their Facebook page last year.

Last week they shared video of another member, known as Danga, visiting a hospital in Perth's north-eastern suburbs with his lips super-glued together.

i think this stunt, has some research value, and i hope there are some follow up stories, to come, as i'm more interressted, about his pain in the future, and how it's healing, and if he got infections.

aswell interressting would be, to see a comparisment, of this cactus, with say a peruvianus.

as we all know, echinopsis spines continue to hurt after removal, for quite a while, and than the whole area effected, get's a calluse aswell.

i wanna see that guy, 1 day later, 5 days later 14 days later 4 weeks later, and by than he would still not be ok, i reckon.

obviously ch 9 removed the video very fast, fair enough, but people should be allowed to do what ever they wanna do, unless they hurt somebody else, or without consent.

i rather watch them doing this crazy stunts like that, than getting them in trouble with the law or with drugs in an unhealthy fashion.

edit:

i like his risk assesment, better wear gloves and try to protect my blood vessels at my neck.

I would never encourage someone to do something stupid like that, but hell, if they are going to be as stupid as that I am also going to laugh. And yes, some follow up would be great.

Don't opuntias also have shitloads of glochids? He'll be festering for weeks, LOL.

They should have had the Rocky theme song playing at the start, you know, when the guy is shaping up to the cactus,then at the end show a pic of the catus with a trophy or something?! lol.

I have watched the clip a few times, and it's still cringeworthy and amusing at the same time.
