A billionaire diamond trader has died after 'suffering a heart attack' during a penis enlargement operation in Paris.
Ehud Arye Laniado, 65, was at an unidentified private clinic on the Avenue des Champs-Elysees in the French capital on Saturday when complications during surgery proved fatal.
The experienced diamond expert's heart attack happened when a substance was injected into his penis, Belgian media reported.
Mr Laniado's company Omega Diamonds, which is based in the Belgian city of Antwerp, confirmed his passing.
A statement from the firm said: 'Farewell to a visionary businessman. It is with great sadness that we confirm that our founder Ehud Arye Laniado has passed away.'

Seriously, this is very sad. It is unfortunate that someone could have everything in the world and still be unhappy with life because their body isn't perfect.

(40,224 posts)And now the poor man will be remembered with a punchline. It really upsets me to see people humiliated, especially in death.
This is not anything that is funny. Really, it isn't.

(Mainly because I am ignorant of the risks associated with such surgery).

(14,861 posts)But why were you asking about his enemies? Do you think there's a reason to suspect foul play?

(33,459 posts)People do weird and vicious things all the time for money, power, or hate. A billionaire gets injected during surgery and has a heart attack? I'd be checking everything about that surgery before declaring it accidental or 'natural'.

(5,969 posts)but apparently nothing is too cheap for some papers to get some clicks. There was no reason to go into that kind of detail or talk about the procedure at all but it's a major reason why this story is here. It's willingly accepting mocking and dehumanizing someone for the sake of attention/ad income. And many reactions here show a similar lack of empathy towards to a lost life as well as the family members and friends left behind.
As long as it doesn't harm anyone else, people can do whatever they like to feel better about themselves.

"I could have been handsome or rich"
Wise choice... rich automatically made him handsome.
This diamond billionaire was not wise.

(31,261 posts)the guy could have done wonders with a small pecker if he had worked on what was between his ears. Great sex comes from having the right state of mind when engaging a lover. As a guy, I hear too many male friends state that it's all about penetration, it isn't.

(31,261 posts)For something like that, why change. I can see wanting more stamina at his age, but there are ways to get stamina that are simple and safe.

(22,171 posts)are others out there in DU land that seem to remember this too, but none of us can remember who. I'll figure it out (or one of our DU buddies will, and I will post). This is going to be a earworm in my ear for the next x days!! Ah!!
Take care.
