Excessive masturbation and soft drinks are blamed for poor fitness of potential recruits to Chinese Army In one city in China, 57 per cent of try-outs were rejected on grounds of fitness One in five said to be too fat, while 8 per cent had overly large testicular veins Army chiefs have blamed junk food and overuse of technology like smartphones By Iain Burns For Mailonline Published: 18:41, 23 August 2017 | Updated: 18:50, 23 August 2017 e-mail 101 shares 221 View comments An increasing number of young Chinese people are too fat and unhealthy to join their nation's military. In just one city in China, more than half - 57 per cent - of try-outs were rejected by the army because they failed the physical exam. According to the state-controlled People's Liberation Army Daily newspaper, wannabe soldiers in the communist republic are also being found to suffer from liver and kidney problems caused by junk food and alcohol. +3 Tough: The Chinese People's Liberation Army is the biggest in the world and rigorous fitness standards are required to join. Many wannabe soldiers, however, have been found to be simply not up to a life in uniform RELATED ARTICLES Previous 1 Next Chinese marksmen have to shoot apples placed on the HEADS of...

Share this article Share 101 shares One in five was said to be simply too fat to join. About eight per cent of men applying were found to have unusually large testicular veins caused by excessive masturbation. Eyesight, too, has been found to be substandard in many applicants - making them unfit for duty in the largest army in the world. +3 Passion: While many Chinese might be keen to join their nation's military, an increasing number are being rejected when they apply. In one city, 57 per cent were turned down +3 Unhealthy: Reasons given for rejections have included being simply too fat and having an overly large testicular vein caused by excessive masturbation.

It also suggested that the high mineral content in water was partly to blame for liver and gallbladder problems. But the report - spread by social media app WeChat - did attempt to reassure patriots by stressing that in the USA, 80 per cent of applicants are rejected.

1836 Threepenny Bit Victoria
copper123 replied to sgpowelluk's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
most early silver threepence have no date visable so I would go with the above. It would be impossable to be a 1836 anyway as it was not known that victoria would be queen till william died in 1837- 8 replies

I wonder who come up with the diagnosis of "overly large testicular veins" and I bet he never brags about his unusual job in the pub with his mates -

I would take the profit at least its there unlike the last 300 royal mint released coins which have all left everyone suffering large losses -
WOW thats really expensive for a 1897 high tide (considered more scarce than the low tide) You would really struggle to get that for a 1897 farthing even in unc . I think these victoria old heads (apart from 1901) are a bit scarcer than folks think in GEF and above with 1896 and 1895 the scarceist

The song itself is obviously writen by townshend about roger and you can almost feel the love-hate relationship they had at the time , fights and squables onstage marred many concerts in the 1973- 1976 period in fact it was a real surprise they stayed together at all

This is probably the reason then that they are generally not listed as mules Thanks very much -

Freeman 530 and the more common 529 should they be considered mules ? Certainly the best case could be made for freeman 530 as its pretty rare -
