Channing Tatum told a chilly tale to Details magazine this month about how he almost burned off his penis. Yes. You read that horrid line correctly. Our favorite once-was-a-stripper actor poured scalding water down his pants during a film shoot and had to be rushed to a hospital.

more Channing Tatum after the hop…

Tatum swears his penis is back in working order now, but whew, what was a close call.

“So he poured scalding water down my suit. And I was trying to pull the suit away from my body to somehow get away from the boiling water, and the more I pulled the suit away, the lower the water went. It just went straight down and pretty much burned the skin off the head of my dick…I had five guys looking at my shriveled, burned penis,” he says. “Looking back it was the most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life.”
Rest assured, “I’m good . . . now. Now my penis is fantastic! One hundred percent recovered. Put me back in the game, Coach.”

Wow. Kudos for Tatum that he was man enough to tell the grizzly tale.
