Testicular parachute
A testicular parachute is a cone-shaped cuff that is placed around the scrotum . Refers to the cuff because of their similarity with a parachute as Parachute (engl. Parachute). The cuff is often made of leather, but also of or with latex, rubber or lacquer. Often there are decorative rivets on the outside or small steel pins attached on the inside, which are intended to create an additional sensory stimulus for the wearer. Chains with a ring or hook are usually attached to the sides of the cuff. Weights can be attached to this ring, which regulates the pressure or tension on the scrotum.
application
Testicular parachutes are often used as part of Cock and Ball Torture (CBT).
hazards
The cuff balances the attached weight and the tension is distributed over the entire scrotum. This can minimize some of the risks that arise when the testicle is tied under the pull of a weight. Nevertheless, caution and expertise are required when using it. Use can lead to permanent damage to health, for example:
- impotence
- Numbness in the testicles
- Injuries to the testicles - life-threatening internal injuries or shock are possible, especially if they are torn off
