A Louisiana man who thought “Gorilla Glue Girl” Tessica Brown was “lying” ended up in the emergency room himself after he applied the powerful adhesive to his lip.
Len Martin, 37, said he tried out the Gorilla Glue challenge for himself after Brown to prove that it was “not as serious as she was trying to make it,” news station WKBN reported.
“I thought she was just playing around because I didn’t think it was that serious,” Martin told the outlet.
“I actually tried it out before and it actually didn’t do anything for me … So I was like, ‘Okay, she’s lying’ and there are all these challenges going on so I was like, ‘Okay I’m going to try it’ and it went backwards.”
The aspiring rapper filmed himself gluing a Red Adhesive cup to his upper lip.
“I thought it could lick it off kind of to moisten it and pull it right off but that didn’t work.”
He ended up in the emergency room, where a doctor performed a “painful peeling.”
“This is definitely not one to try. Let’s just stop this now … It’s very harmful,” Martin said.
Martin previously made headlines for participating in the ice cream challenge, in which he licked a carton at the supermarket and put it back.
