Just a game? Nathan Bells moments before the Fifa forfeit
Nathan Bells’s cringe-worthy challenge came after losing the Xbox match to friend Saber Da Silva.
The student took the painful punishment as part of a ‘Fifa Forfeits Sunday’ event held at his halls of residence.
Mr Bells, 20, studying at Leeds University, said: ‘It brought a tear to me eye. I usually beat Saber. He got lucky.’
The eye-watering moment he jammed a staple into his scrotum was broadcast on student news website, The Tab.
‘It was hilarious,’ said Mr Da Silva. ‘Nobody has turned down a forfeit yet.’
A video of the painful forfeit has also been circulating on social media this week.
Elsewhere, an artist in Russia horrified tourists last week when he nailed his own testicles to the groundat one of the world’s most visited landmarks.
