Masturbate-A-Thon UK

London will be hosting the UK's first Masturbate-A-Thon in August in which hundreds of men and women will pleasure themselves for charity. There are also events in the US where this very strange way of raising money for charity originated.

Those attending will have the opportunity to masturbate in private or in a group room. There will also be an exhibition room which will be filmed for broadcasting on Channel 4.

And for those that like a challenge, you can try to beat the current masturbation record of 8 and a half hours, or if that's not beaten, create a new UK record. Now that's an achievement I don't think you'd want to broadcast.
