The Newsfeed blog at Times.com reported that the two hooked their stomach up to a machine that simulated labor pains for two hours using electrodes. What started our as laughter and jokes turned into the men screaming and crying in the fetal position. Host Zeno said the experience was “torture”, though many have pointed out that labor lasts much longer than two hours. Watch the video and tell us what you think.
