Man finally gets bionic penis 37 years after childhood accident

A 43-year-old man from Edinburgh, Scotland has finally got back his ‘manhood’ thanks to science. After a horrific accident at the age of just six, Mohammed Abad had lost all of his genitals when he was hit by a car and dragged 600 feet.

It took the surgeons at the University College London three years and dozens of operations to craft and attach an 8-inch bionic penis, which was moulded using skin grafts from his arm. The final operation, which took place last month, had lasted 11 hours.

"When you want a bit of action you press the 'on' button, and when you are finished you press another button. It takes seconds," he is quoted saying byThe Sun.

In 2013, Abad was also interviewed for a news segment called Embarrassing Bodies, where he said that the ‘penis’ he had after the accident – which measured a little over 2 inches – was completely numb, as reported by the Daily Mail.

The security guard hopes that he would be finally be able to have kids now, which he described as a miracle, reports the New York Daily News.
