Mechanic’s Manhood Crushed by Runaway BMW in Shocking Garage Incident He’s Not Sure If It Still Works
A garage owner in Lancashire is facing a deeply traumatic recovery after his private parts were crushed by a runaway car in a terrifying accident caught on CCTV.
Karl Farrar, 49, says he’s unsure if his penis still works after being slammed twice by a BMW estate that rolled out of control inside his garage.
The shocking moment unfolded when Karl stepped out of the BMW he was reversing into the garage. He pulled the handbrake and moved behind the car only for it to suddenly start rolling backward down the ramp.
CCTV footage shows Karl desperately trying to stop the moving vehicle with his hands, before being violently pinned between the car and the garage wall.
In visible agony, he screams for help but it only gets worse.
A staff member quickly enters the car, trying to help, but mistakenly puts the vehicle in reverse again and crushes Karl a second time before finally pulling it off him.
Karl then collapses in the center of the garage floor, unable to move.
Now recovering at home in Hyndburn, Lancashire, Karl says the brutal trauma left his manhood black, swollen, and unrecognizable.
“My man bits were smashed to bits,” he said. “They were black and blue. I don’t even know if they still work.”
Doctors say the injury caused severe nerve and soft tissue damage, and at one point feared Karl might even lose his leg due to the crushing impact.
“They were talking about amputation. I was on a ward with people having legs removed. That’s when it really hit me.”
The source of the accident? A faulty handbrake.
Despite his background in drag racing and motorsport, Karl says nothing compares to the horror of nearly losing both his leg and his manhood to a simple garage mishap.
“I’ve never been injured racing, but a parked car nearly took everything.”
Karl refuses to watch the video calling it too traumatic but it has now gone viral, shocking viewers across the UK.
