‘Right-handed Man’ Almost Masturbates To Death: Medical Case Study
By Ben Cost
This fellow redefined “mind-blowing sex” after he suffered a life-threatening stroke while repeatedly mas- turbating. Now, med- ical experts are say- ing he’s lucky he escaped the ultimate unhappy ending.
The unnamed “51- year-old right-handed man” from Japan admittedly enjoyed pleasuring himself several times a day, according to the new case study published in the medical Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases.
However, one explo- sive self-love session went awry when, after climaxing, the serial stroker was struck down by “thunderclap” headaches and severe vomiting.
Unnerved by the unsexy symptoms, the man rushed him- self to Nagoya City University Hospital, where he was found to have low blood
pressure and confu- sion — two telltale signs of a cerebrovas- cular accident, according to the med- ical case study.
Emergency medical technicians suspected he had a stroke while stroking — and a sub- sequent CT scan con- firmed that the man had indeed suffered a subarachnoid hemor- rhage (SAH), a poten- tially fatal type of stroke sparked by ruptured blood ves- sels in the space sur-
rounding the brain.
Prior case studies have reported that sex — including the autoerotic variety — “was the immediate preceding activity before a ruptured aneurysm in up to 14 percent of patients,” according to clinical neuropsychologist Dr. Amee Baird, author of “Sex in the Brain: How Your Brain Controls Your Sex Life” (Columbia University Press, 2020). The risk of
death by sex-induced stroke can be com- pounded by taking cocaine or Viagra before the act.
The man survived his near-fatal orgasm ordeal and was released from the hospital within two weeks in excellent condition, according to doctors.
However, he should thank his lucky stars he didn’t achieve the opposite of a happy ending, as a ruptured
brain aneurysm caus- es “death in 40 per- cent of cases,” Baird reported. Meanwhile, two-thirds of survivors are left with serious neurological deficits.
This isn’t the first time someone has suffered a vascular mishap during an act of self- gratification. In 2016, a Bronx hospital worker allegedly died of a heart attack while masturbating to porn at work, according to police sources
