荷兰男主持参加模拟分娩实验 称阵痛难忍

 

Dutch presenting duo Dennis Storm and Valerio Zena were hooked up to electrodes that replicated³ the contractions⁴ women are forced to undergo - but the men only lasted two hours before they begged for the electrodes to be taken off.

 

The faux（人造的） labour was filmed and screened during an episode of the pair's hit TV show, Proefkonijnen (Guinea Pigs).

 

But the labour challenge proved too much for the hosts, who writhed⁵ in agony（痛苦不堪） as the electrodes kicked in.

 

Speaking ahead of the simulated labour, Storm and Zena revealed they wanted to experience the pain of childbirth because they'd heard that 'giving birth is the worst pain there is'.

 

Strapped⁶ up to the electrodes and with the stunt⁷ seconds from starting, Zena asks of a nurse: 'Do you think the pain will make us scream?'.

 

Bluntly, she replies: 'Yes, it definitely will.'

 

And the nurse's prediction proved entirely⁸ accurate as the pair are left doubled up in pain within moments of the fake contractions kicking in.

 

Although they make a brave attempt to laugh and joke their way through the experience, the misery⁹ on their faces gives the game away.

 

So bad is the pain, Zena is left questioning whether he even wants children as his wife would be forced to go through an experience he describes as 'torture'.

 

Torture or not, Zena and Storm aren't the first men to volunteer for fake childbirth.

 

In 2009, Dr Andrew Rochford went through a similar experience for Australian TV show.

 

Two hours later, Rochford was turning the air blue as he struggled to deal with the pain, adding afterwards that he could now 'understand why women swear'.

 

Storm and Zena are no strangers to painful stunts¹⁰. In 2011, the pair cooked and ate each others' flesh, which was shown on live TV.
