I always heard the dumb rumors about John Dillinger’s dong, that it was gigantic and that it’s in a jar at The Smithsonian.
But I never saw the picture that’s supposed to be the inspiration for the myth. It’s hilarious.
This looks like a still from a Mel Brooks movie.
Firstly, I think it’s positioned a bit off.
Secondly, who the hell dies with an erection? (Wasn’t he shot walking out of a movie? Just what kind of movie was this???)
The picture actually inspired a bunch of comic strips, one of which was, cleverly, called Dill’s Pickle.
We can’t show the rest.
“We can’t show the rest”. Aaaah, why?
Talk about rigor mortis, mama mia, that’s a big boner. It does seem like it’s out of positon but who knows. If that was a Mel Brooks movie it would be The Late Great Young Frankenbone.
Apparently the whole legend started from the photo, which emphasized the awkward angle of his arm, stiff from rigor mortis. Facts never stopped the creators of the “Tijuana Bibles” (8-pager dirty comics), though. So if you want to see “the rest”, here it is:

There are a couple of books that inform writers of the facts of death. Some give the effects of different poisons on the body. Others tell how the body reacts when it is shutting down. These books are to help writers be more realistic in their fiction. If memory serves me, there are two types of death that leave men with erections. One is for a man to have a massive stroke (no pun intended) The other type is from hanging.
The penis needs blood flow to enlarge no one has a hard on when they are dead.
It’s impossible
Not so, look up priapism and “death erection” on Wiki.
We won’t even get into the fact that dead folks fart…
It is waaaay too early for a conversation like this.
So the stiff had a stiff.
@Truffles: You should have been here in the middle of the night when this conversation started. Then you could have said, “It is waaaaaay too late in the evening for a conversation like this…”
😉
Comics ain’t what they used to be. 👿
What the hell people? What the hell?
It’s called rigamortis.
Big Fuzzy, you seem to have great knowledge of pictures of male units and such. Just saying.
When you run a post about wearing vaginas on your head, give me a call. Hmmm, I think I see a post on the way.

A long time ago when I was in my prime i was in the hospital. One morning I woke up like in that picture. There were nurses out in the hall giggling. I was mortified.
Terrible, terrible curse.
I know, for I live with that burden every day.

Why so hurtful Dude?
You know I’m sensitive during “my time.”
Nurses and sharp pencils.
Almost as fast as a pic of Hillary, when you’re awake.
