The 35-year-old Pole burst into the Zizzi eaterie in central London and grabbed a knife from the kitchen.
He then leapt on a table and dropped his trousers as customers fled screaming.
A witness said: “There was blood everywhere. Everyone ran out of the place.”
Surgeons battling to save the severed willy tried to sew it back on in the first UK op of its kind.
Quick-thinking cops recovered the organ from the restaurant floor after subduing its crazed owner with CS gas.
The manhood was packed in ice and taken with the man to London’s St Thomas’s Hospital.
A spokesman there confirmed doctors had attempted to re-attach it, but the hospital refused to say whether the procedure had been successful.
The 200-seater restaurant on The Strand in central London was packed with runners and spectators from Sunday’s Marathon.
Sales rep Stuart McMahon, who was eating supper with his girlfriend, said: “This guy came running in then charged into the kitchen, got a massive knife and started waving it about.
“Everyone was screaming and running out as he jumped on a table, dropped his trousers and popped his penis out. Then he cut it off. I couldn’t believe it.
“The staff were really upset and there was blood everywhere.”
Police sped to the scene and restrained and handcuffed the man. Several diners were treated for shock by ambulance crews.
A spokesman for the Zizzi restaurant chain said: “It all happened in a matter of seconds and was obviously extremely frightening and distressing. The manager and staff bravely helped evacuate the restaurant.”
Last night cops were trying to establish the Pole’s background. He had left no identification in the clothing he discarded. A source said: “We believe he’s Polish and 35. We don’t know if he has a history of mental illness, but he’s clearly not a well boy.”
A Met Police spokeswoman said: “Officers arrived to find a 35-year-old man with severe self-inflicted injuries.
“No other people were injured and the man was not arrested. He is now stable in hospital.” *
The man will be assessed by psychiatrists following treatment for his wounds and is expected to be held under the Mental Health Act for his own safety.
The diner remained shut yesterday for a clean-up operation. It was due to re-open last night.
The Royal College of Surgeons confirmed this was the first time that anyone in the UK had had their penis sewed back on.
After controlling the blood loss, doctors had to repair the blood supply and reanimate the tissue by rejoining the arteries and veins under a microscope.
Top Italian plastic surgeon Dr Nicolo Scuderi said of the operating technique: “We don’t know how much sensitivity and function will be regained.”
Couldn't this guy sue himself? I remember hearing about something where if you sue yourself and win but don't have the funds to pay what you owe to yourself someone else pays it (insurance, government, something like that)....

what if had a 12" penis and only cut off 1/2 of it....
"As is known from a videotape the two made when they met in March 2001 in Meiwes' home, Meiwes amputated Brandes' penis and the two men ate the penis together before Brandes was killed. Brandes had insisted that Meiwes bite his penis off; this did not work, so Meiwes used a knife. Brandes apparently tried to eat his share of his own penis raw but could not because it was too tough and, as he put it, "chewy". Meiwes then sautéed the penis in a pan with salt, pepper, and garlic."

I feel sorry for myself just for having read that.

That sounds pretty rediculous, but I guess... maybe it could be done through a technicality? Although I'd hope that if it had been done before, insurance companies were smart enough to restate their customer agreements to prevent it. But then again, I'm sure it would end up costing a person more money in the long run because their insurance rates would skyrocket. I don't really know. :|

Yes we REALLY need a book to convince us not to do all that shit...

Rofl. "... regretted his actions". If anyone managed to cut their dick off and not regret it I would be shocked.

From wiki: "In ancient civilizations, removal of the human penis was sometimes used as a means of demonstrating superiority: armies were sometimes known to sever the penises of their enemies to count the dead, as well as for trophies, although usually only the foreskins were taken"
ILL STEAL YOUR PENIS TO SHOW I'M BETTER AT LIFE! I'll also be able to count how many times I've killed someone, and have a nice new shelf trophy to show the kids.

Every guy knows how to pee, shake, jerk and fuck -..- so there's no reason to get rid of it.
Drudgereport is actually pretty solid. Most news reporters actually get their news from there. Drudge is a guy who travels around the world and finds "news" to write about. He is infamous for being always "the first guy on the scene."

Anyways, this is some weirdo stuff...
Well not exactly, it's more like he has one of the most-visited news websites in the world, and he has a ton of sources. I don't think I have any examples of stories where he himself has done any actual reporting, he mostly has sources reporting to him which he then quotes on the site and prints in articles.

Here's the really neato part:

Fuck, ruined my fucking day...[/QUOTE]
It could have been worse, the video wasnt released.
I actually wonder what cow penis tastes like now T_T
Probably the same as snake legs.
Quoted to show my approval of the joke.
Wow I can't help but laugh at that. Funny stuff.
Anyway that wiki article I read a while back, kind of sickening. There was some Rammstein song about it, and thats how I learned about it. I hear the jury that watched the video of that act had to get therapy eh...I wouldn't doubt it.
seriously, over here it's no big deal, it's common courtesy in any restaurant for people do cut their genitalia off, like drinking tea and horse riding.
Back in the time of the Roman Empire, people who belonged to a religion called The Cult of Cyble (not sure about the spelling) would be initiated by dancing under a bleeding cow and priests would have to practice self-castration. The Roman Empire banned the religion because too many nobles were practicing self-castration, which was resulting in a decline in the higher class's population.
The restaurant owners weren't especially inspired when they chose the name of the restaurant xD They kinda asked for it, french speaking users will understand, others will have to look at "zizi" in a dictionnary :p

I could see if someone, who was obviously crazed, would rush into a resteraunt and cut off SOMEONE-ELSES penis... but your own. Why? What's this world coming to. People are getting crazier and crazier everyday. People can't attend schools for being shot at.. can't go to public atheletic events like Soccer, for people starting riots (even when their team fucking wins o.O) and now you can't even enjoy a simple afternoon meal without a lunatic running in waving a butchers-knife around and loppin' off probably the MOST vital part of the male-anatomy GG him =b
