But the unmarried man had to rush himself to a hospital casualty unit in Guangdong province telling medics: “Please, please help me. The eel is moving through my body.”
Surgeons finally removed the 20-inch long Asian swamp eel - which weighed more than half-a-kilo - in the early hours of the morning after a lengthy treatment with drugs and medical probes.
One of the medical team explained: “The eel was simply trying to find its way out.”
“It was still alive when we got it out but it died soon afterwards, which was probably a mercy.
“This was a particularly idiotic stunt and could have caused him a serious injury. Eels have small but very sharp teeth,” they added.
A police spokesman said: “We are aware of what happened and a 39-year-old man will be interviewed over alleged animal cruelty.”
