Penis Envy

For some men bigger - whether by mechanical, herbal or surgical means - will always mean better. The penis is the organ most central to a man's sense of self, and the quest for penile perfection has driven some men to extraordinary and dangerous lengths.

In 1993 one short brutal act guaranteed John Wayne Bobbitt a notoriety he can never shake off. His wife Lorena sliced off his manhood with a kitchen knife, drove off and discarded it in a field. What followed - one the biggest live TV trials of all time - turned the former marine into an unlikely celebrity.

Sometimes having a 'Big Johnson' is more of a problem than you'd guess. Meet the men, including the man claiming to have the world's biggest penis, who reveal there is a bittersweet side to nature's gift, and who lift the veil on a taboo subject to show the reality of what it's like to have what all men dream of.
