Two men experience the agony of labour for TV show

Two brave – or should that be foolhardy – male presenters volunteered to experience labour pains for a skit on their TV show – and found it harder to stomach than they realised. Dutch presenting duo Dennis Storm and Valerio Zena were hooked up to electrodes that replicated the contractions women are forced to undergo – but the men only lasted two hours before they begged for the electrodes to be taken off.
Speaking ahead of the simulated labour, Storm and Zena revealed they wanted to experience the pain of childbirth because they’d heard that ‘giving birth is the worst pain there is’. Strapped up to the electrodes and with the stunt seconds from starting, Zena asks of a nurse: ‘Do you think the pain will make us scream?’.
Bluntly, she replies: ‘Yes, it definitely will.’
Storm and Zena are no strangers to painful stunts. In 2011, the pair cooked and ate each others’ flesh, which was shown on live TV.
