Engineers insert giant ben-wa balls into Earth's anus.

You want the truth? I'm only quoting this article because I wanted to use this title.

JAKARTA (AFP) - Engineers dropped chains of concrete balls into a "volcano" oozing hot mud in Indonesia's East Java province Monday as they resumed a bid to stem the flow which has submerged entire villages.

"We have been able to insert four chains of concrete balls today, before changing smoke from the hot mud forced the operations to be halted," Rudi Novrianto, a spokesman for the audacious bid to plug the crater, told AFP.

The operation to drop the chains into the main crater was halted on Saturday when a cable linking two cranes hoisting them suffered damage.

Workers had managed to insert only the first chain. Each one links together four concrete balls.

Two cranes, one static and the other movable, have been erected on both sides of the crater. They are used to drop the chained concrete balls into the hole.

Work was delayed Sunday by repairs and heavy rains, which made conditions dangerous.

"We have had good weather today," Novrianto said. But he added the operation was called off for the remainder of Monday because drifting smoke from the hot mud had begun to affect workers.

"We will see tomorrow (Tuesday) whether the winds and the weather will allow us to continue the operations," Novrianto said.

Entire villages, factories and fields have been submerged by the mud, which has forced more than 15,000 people from their homes.

The mud sprang up when exploratory drilling by the PT Lapindo Brantas energy firm pierced an underground chamber of hydrogen sulphide, forcing hot mud to the surface in Sidoarjo, East Java.

Engineers plan to drop about 375 chains of concrete balls, weighing 400-500 kilograms (880-1,100 pounds), into the 50-metre (165-feet) mud hole, under a plan devised by a local expert.

The aim is to slow the mudflow by about 50-70 percent, but there is no guarantee the experimental attempt will work.

So you're saying, ben-wa balls are recommended to slow anal leakage? :D

"Quick! Get the ben-wa balls while I go pick up more adult diapers!"

Immensely hilarious in so many ways! Excellent.

Oh, they're just going to make that thing mad.

Sure, it seems like a good idea now. But who's gonna be laughing once this volcano starts launching concrete balls in the air?

Gaseous buildup to a blowout? Ewww.

anal beads are as much fun going in as they are coming out...

As if these tiny concrete balls are as ominous as the things the earth hurls about everyday. One has to admire engineers, but sometimes they end up seeming idiots.

I should point out that Volcanoes emit more gas than matter.

Perhaps inserting ben wa balls into ones anus -will stop gas?

It finally gets to drop a load and these cocks try to plug it up? I would not be happy!

I'm curious about the depth of the gas pocket. Would it really be more expensive to drill for a gas vent/reclamation derrick?

technically, ben-wa balls aren't joined by a chain...that would be anal beads. Nevertheless, plugging up a steaming hole in the earth with giant grape shot can only end bad. I can't wait for the news story where hundreds die from the shrapnel from a 400 ball length giant string of anal beads shoved into the ass of the earth.

I thought I'd heard it all, but No....I havent. This sounds as dumb as it looks, although it is good for a laugh. It would seem more logical to divert the flow or even cool it off with water.... but concrete balls that resemble anal beads??? Whatever......

a ton of gasX or Imodium would be a more pharmaceutical solution

Volcanic suppositories...who knew?
