Wesley Warren Jr., Man With 100-Pound Scrotum, Turns Down Free Surgery Offer
A man who made headlines for his 100-pound scrotum now says he turned down an offer for free surgery to get rid of his bulging problem.
GRAPHIC content below:
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that Wesley Warren Jr. declined an opportunity to have the "Dr. Oz Show" pay for the medical expenses associated with the surgery, partially because they wanted exclusive interview rights.
But Warren bristles at the notion that he won't get surgery because he doesn't want to lose the fame he's garnered because of his condition, which is caused by an excess of watery fluid collecting around his testicles.
"Who would want to live like this?" he said. "I just don't want to die during the operation."
