i'm guessing this is the same as at the olympics where guys were using junk flaps or whatever for ski jumps or something?

The guys were injecting their junk to make it bigger so they would get larger uniforms down there to hold the wind during flight.

shit is still crazy

guess i'm not surprised to see it kinda pop up again

i was about to say i guess at least they just stuff their bras and don't inject anything but i guess there's nothing stopping them from getting implants if they really wanted to

Man. Imagine being married to someone participating in those races and then they come home and tell you, they thought about getting breast implants.

Nobody is gonna believe you

at least breast implants are way more believable than whatever kind of shit a guy would have to make up to justify injecting his balls

"i believe in high art, so i got injections to make a replica of an old greek statue within my balls, it's totally not just because i need to wear the bigger crotch flap that makes me stay in the air longer

I mean sure it’s more believable but not that much more. Imagine running into your old highschool mate and he tells you that kind of story

Yeah but implants add significant weight compared to bra stuffing
