As laboring is proven to be one of the most painful experience a woman can possibly have, pregnant women can be forgiven for accusing their husbands of not understanding how disturbing bearing a baby in the womb can be.

But what if they fill in their other-half’s shoes and try being kicked in the balls? A social media group “The Hambone Group” has recently uploaded a video that experiments women’s reaction to testicular pain.

In the video, volunteers are attached with electric lining on their spine, abdomen and groin to receive electric shocks that activate the nociceptors to send the “ball pain” signals to their brains. The four volunteers, including mothers, asserted their confidence believing ball pain is not even comparable to labor pain.

Their bold assertion, however, immediately turned into wail and gasp as the electric shocks started to bite gradually. They all collapsed lying on the ground howling, sobbing, swearing, vomiting, or simply twisting the body as they lost their voice because of the horrible pain.

By the end of the video, every participant flipped, saying “I can’t believe how men can take it” or “it’s almost as painful as laboring”. The video soon went viral on the internet. Seeing women experience the pain of being kicked in the balls, many men leave their comments: “Now you know you should protect our balls!”, “It’s painful enough just looking at it” and “Apparently men and women can’t share one another’s pain.”

ATLANTA (AP) — Alex Verdugo's single off Andrew Chafin drove in Eli White from second base in the bottom of the ninth and the Atlanta Braves recovered after blowing a two-run lead to beat Washington 4-3 on Monday night and hand the Nationals their sixth consecutive loss.
White led off the ninth with a single off Jackson Rutledge (0-1) before advancing to second on Nick Allen's sacrifice. Verdugo's game-ending single up the middle drove in White.
Grant Holmes allowed one run and four hits, including a fourth-inning homer by James Wood, in 6 1/3 innings.
Marcell Ozuna drove in two runs with two hits, including a 464-foot homer off Jake Irvin in the fifth.
Raisel Iglesias (3-3) blew a 3-1 lead in the ninth. Following one-out singles by Keibert Ruiz and Luis García Jr., Josh Bell grounded out to Iglesias on the mound. With runners on second and third, Iglesias got Dylan Crews to hit a grounder to Allen, who threw wide of first baseman Matt Olson for an error, allowing two runs to score to tie it.
Michael Harris II robbed García of an extra-base hit with an unlikely catch at the wall in the fourth. Running with his back to the plate, Harris reached up for the catch before banging into the wall and hanging onto the ball.
Harris then shook his head as if he didn't believe he made the catch. Holmes watched from the mound in shock, holding his glove and right hand on top of his cap.
Atlanta first baseman Matt Olson played in his 661st consecutive game, the majors' longest active streak. His streak began on May 2, 2021.
Atlanta right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach will look for his second win when former Braves right-hander Michael Soroka starts for the Nationals on Tuesday night.
