VIDEO Watch two dudes in complete agony simulate labor contractions

Somewhere Johnny Knoxville and Steve-O have to be kicking themselves in the babymakers wondering why they never attempted the following TV gold. Two dudes, Dennis Storm and Valerio Zeno from their Dutch show Guinea Pigs, decided they would do their best at simulating labor contractions, proving what we already knew, men really aren’t cut out for that line of work.

Dennis and Valerio had electrodes strapped to their stomachs and were given increased voltage over a 2 1/2 hour period. What resulted was some serious agony and overall horrific screams of pain and suffering. The ladies administering said stimulation-simulation appeared to be enjoying the experiment as they calmly requested that these poorly equipped gentlemen stay calm and go with the flow while they were subjected to waves of misery.

This is all in Dutch, but men screaming themselves silly while trying to act pregnant is the international language of “Ha!”

The clip does have a caption option (click on the CC and you can read the English subtitles). Here were some of Dennis and Valerio’s deep insights on their journey:

Valerio (dude in black pants): “I hate the way this feels.” “[It feels] as if they’re poking around with a coil of barbed wire inside my belly.” “Arggghhhhhaaghhhhhh!!!” “I don’t know if I can take this much longer. I swear.”

Dennis (dude in blue pants): “It looks as if I’m in control, but that last one… I could cry.” “Sh!t!!!” “Dawwwwwhhhhh!!!”

Wow. Of course neither one of these dudes had to go through all the “fun” of the months and full-out body assault leading up to the big day but at least they tried to relate to a little of the experience. Special props to Dennis for toughing it all the way through.

I would be amiss if I didn’t include a GIF for good measure. For all you moms out there – this is for you!
