Via Reuters: Naked man superglued to exercise bike - Yahoo! News

A gang stripped a South African man before supergluing him to an exercise bicycle while they ransacked his house, according to a report Thursday.

SAPA news agency said the attackers, dressed in suits, hijacked a man in his 50s and forced him at gunpoint to take them to his home in Johannesburg.

“The victim was then forced to strip, after which he was superglued to the seat of an exercise bicycle, his hands were superglued, as were his feet and then his mouth was superglued shut,” SAPA quoted Mark Stokoe, a spokesman for emergency services Netcare 911, as saying.

While the headline may make it sound like a “News of the Weird” story, how horrible would this be? My word.

    2. This is brutal inhuman torture and it’s classified as “News of the Weird” and silly, what does that say about the news organizations reporting this.
