Man Steals Underwear To Hang On His ‘Masturbation Tree’
A man in Thailand was busted stealing underwear to hang on his “masturbation tree.” Now, he’s been arrested after the tree was discovered.
Well, it’s that time of the year when people are starting to get out their Christmas trees to decorate for the holiday. However, this tree is a bit different. Sure, it’s still decorated just like a Christmas tree would be. Only instead of ornaments and tinsel this tree is decorated with stolen underwear and is known as his “masturbation tree.” This story is certainly one-of-a-kind.
Did A Man Steal Underwear To Hang On His ‘Masturbation Tree?’
A masturbation tree would be a wild thing to discover. I had never known it was a thing. Of course, it’s not as popular as Christmas trees but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
According to Metro, 27-year-old Ophas Chuenjit was arrested after a passerby discovered the strange tree in the woods near his home in Kamphaeng Phet which is in central Thailand. The suspect admitted that when he was drunk he would help himself to underwear belonging to people nearby. That included the underwear of women, men, the elderly, and more. Colonel Somchai Mongkonwong tells Metro, “The suspect would sniff the private garments while masturbating and would discard them once the odour of the owners had faded. He would hang them on the bamboo clump behind the hospital.”
The discovery of the masturbation tree was made by 55-year-old Rangsan Jaisaen who noticed it and thought it was so unusual he decided to call the police. Now people in the village and nearby villages have answers as to what happened to their missing underwear. It sounds like they’ve been complaining about it being stolen for a while. 6 villagers who think that Chuenjit stole their underwear have now filed complaints against him. He has been charged with stealing and could end up spending 5 years in jail and a hefty fine. Metro reports that the underwear has since been cleaned and taken to the police station as evidence.
You can see some pictures of the village and the masturbation tree by clicking here. This would be crazy to find. We all lose socks and that’s very common but we often blame the dryer for eating them. Same with underwear, I’m constantly losing pairs and have no idea where they end up. Never would I imagine that someone has been stealing them. That would never even cross my mind!
5 of the Craziest Cringeworthy Crimes Ever Committed
While committing crimes may seem black and white (you either broke the law or you didn’t), there are certainly some crimes that are dumber than others. Sometimes it’s the crime itself that’s wild, other times, it’s the people committing said crimes. These are 5 of the craziest, cringeworthy crimes ever committed.
Crimes can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. However, it takes a very unique individual, a case study if you will, to commit some of these outrageously dumb crimes. Years ago, these criminals would have been featured on Spike TV or one of those America’s Dumbest Criminal shows. Today, I’m not sure if those shows are around…and I’m certain Spike TV isn’t around anymore. That’s a story for another time.

Craziest Crimes
Crimes can happen for a number of reasons. They may happen out of necessity. They could also happen on accident. These crimes, however, do not fall into those categories. These crimes are different. None of these would accidentally happen. They also aren’t a matter of life or death. There’s no ethics quiz here, or any matters of ‘would you steal bread to support your family?’ These crimes, and criminals, aren’t straight up cringeworthy.
While all of these crimes are crazy and certainly cringeworthy, they also make for excellent conversation pieces. That’s why I’ve gone and found five examples of the wildest stories that Dave and Chuck the Freak have talked about and made a list highlighting the best of the best. Let’s be honest…what’s better than reading a story about one of the craziest crimes ever committed? Or, watching Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about some of the dumbest crimes ever committed? Personally, I’m going with the funny storytellers.
They add their own two cents and perspectives on these stories that nobody else could provide. Not even those talking heads on the dumbest criminal shows. Am I the only one who remembers those? I feel like they were a staple on TruTV or VH1, but now all I can find on TruTV is Impractical Jokers, which is awesome but…you get it. Let’s not delay! Here’s the list!
