We should offer these two doctors' services for free penis enlargements to all billionaires.

[-] markz@suppo.fi 30 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Rather than free, you should offer the most exclusive and expensive dong surgeries on earth.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

You're both half right. You offer the most exclusive expensive penis enlargement surgury for free just for them, BECAUSE they're a billionaire.

Nothing rich assholes love more than getting expensive shit for free because of their privledge.

[-] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

They want the most exclusive expensive version of things for the lowest cost. It’s fucking ridiculous bragging rights bullshit.

Didn’t somebody already botch his dick?

Let’s tell him this new guy will fix it

[-] human@slrpnk.net 52 points 2 months ago

Belgian-Israeli businessman Ehud Arye Laniado, founder of Omega Diamonds, suffered a fatal heart attack while undergoing injections intended to enlarge his penis.

...

However, prosecutors later downgraded the charges to failure to assist a person in danger, drug-related offences, and practising medicine without a licence.

Call me paranoid, but I'd like anyone giving me penis injections to be licensed to practice medicine.

[-] becausechemistry@piefed.social 45 points 2 months ago

You sound like the brainwashed masses. He, a billionaire, was much more qualified to determine if someone is fit to practice medicine than some institutional board. Obviously, otherwise he wouldn’t have been a billionaire.

[-] limelight79@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

Or the Oceangate ethos: They're are too many unnecessary rules in medicine! Controlled experiments to test new drugs are just slowing down innovation!

He died while the procedure was being performed at a private clinic in March 2019

I wondered why he wasn’t answering my calls! Why are we only just finding out about this now?

[-] Trex202@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Well, I thought I was going to get a call after the old snip snip cuz we talked about that

Coconut penis

[-] Aljernon@lemmy.today 33 points 2 months ago

Comrade Penis Enlargement Surgeon, the surgery was a great success! You are now heroes of socialism like Comrade Whale, Comrade Bee, and Comrade crushing pressure of deep ocean.

I still think autoerotic asphyxiation is the most embarrassing way to die, but, thanks to this article, I’ve now been introduced to a close second.

The fact that he was a billionaire diamond magnate just makes it easier to laugh.

[-] IronBird@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

this is definitely worse than autoerotic asphyxiation, that's just someone trying and failing to explore their kink...this is just someone who won the game of life being insecure about his dick

Maybe the surgery was a success. Dude asked for a dong the size of a Pringles can, got one, and all his blood went to it and he died. Checks out to me.

The penis was purported to be so epic its legend stretched 7 years into the future, from a Parisian clinic to an Indian online news site.

Absolutely zero sympathy. Another asswipe will fill the gap for the next shipment of blood diamonds.

[-] Ceruleum@lemmy.wtf 17 points 2 months ago

So the operation was a 100% succes.

it seems like the operation failed. there's fewer dicks in the world now.

[-] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Well, it didn't go as planned, but I wouldn't necessarily call it a failure.

[-] T156@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Kind of weird that the surgeons are implicated to have caused it in the headline, when he died of a heart problem unrelated to the cosmetic surgery.

You'd think the drugs and medications he was taking would be more at fault in that case.

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 9 points 2 months ago

The surgery was not found to be the cause of death. It's just included in the headline this way for clicks.

Now he will be remembered as a tiny dick Billionaire. He died while his manhood being ridiculed.

[-] robocall@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

I can't believe being a billionaire wasn't enough for this man, he was still insecure that he felt the need to buy a bigger dick.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but women don't need a gorilla sized dick! They need you to eat them out! (this guy had a wife. We need to ask men if they crave gorilla dicks)

lolololololol

It makes me very, very sad to hear of the passing of a billionaire.

[-] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

An autopsy later confirmed that Laniado died from cardiac hypertrophy, a condition involving an enlarged heart.

A search of his hotel room revealed he had been taking multiple substances banned in France, along with vasodilators commonly used to treat erectile dysfunction. According to judicial sources, these substances are believed to have contributed to his death.

Ah, so it had nothing to do with the procedure, dude was on a cocktail of his own drugs, didn't tell the doctor, had a heart attack.

So, if it was anyones fault, it was the pathetic billionaires fault. Also anyone who gets rich from diamonds is always, 100%, a scumbag.

Let this be an example to every surgeon out there that if a billionaire patient dies during or after a surgery:

It can't simply be a statistical death, their trusts will have investigators digging through your trash for years and feeding a team of laywers to find the slightest excuse to end your career even if they die because they were taking party drugs and weren't honest with you.

Its best to just refuse doing surgery on a billionaire.
