:03:00
Any normal person
would've buckled from the pain
:03:03
But SuperBob got twisted now,
he's into whips and chains
:03:06
I'm dili-dili, I'm gonna die...
:03:07
You get the idea before I kill myself.
:03:10
I'm dili-dili, I'm gonna die
:03:11
40 years have come and gone
and Bob is still around
:03:14
He's tied up by his ankles
and he's hanging upside down
:03:17
A lifetime of infection
and his lungs all filled with phlegm
:03:21
The CF would've killed him
if it weren't for S & M
:03:24
Supermasochistic Bob has Cystic Fibrosis
:03:28
Supermasochistic Bob has Cystic Fibrosis
:03:32
Supermasochistic Bob has Cystic Fibrosis.
:03:36
Thank you.
:03:58
From the time
he came over from the hospital
:04:00
he was literally in pain.
:04:03
When he was 18 months old,
:04:06
they discovered that he had pus
:04:09
between the chest,
all over the lung.
:04:11
And every day for a week
:04:14
they took this baby
into the surgery room
:04:18
and they would put needles
into his chest,
:04:22
draw out the pus,
:04:23
Was he under anesthesia?
:04:26
- Local anesthesia.
- Local.
:04:28
Enough that he knew--
:04:30
because his biggest thing at the time--
:04:33
was the scream--
I remember the screaming in pain.
:04:37
There's a youngster out there
who's willing to trade
:04:39
a work of art for a salami.
:04:41
Would that young man stand up, please?
:04:43
I guess we'll need the houselights again
:04:45
and the camera pointing out
in that direction. There he is.
:04:48
There's John with the microphone.
:04:51
- What's your name, young man?
- Robert Flanagan.
:04:53
- What is it again?
- Robert Flanagan.
:04:56
Robert,
nice to have you with us tonight.
:04:58
- How old are you?
- 10.
