              Release Body: A 31 year old man from Doncaster received more than 
              he bargained for, as he got a part of himself stuck inside a female 
              display bust he had ordered online from Displaysense 
              and mistaking it for an adult version. Displaysense, 
              the one stop shop for retail display products and mannequins 
              recently received a complaint about one of their new bust displays 
              after it was used in an unusual fashion that has stunned and embarrassed 
              the entire sales team. A 31 year old man from Doncaster who can 
              not be named for legal reasons has complained to Displaysense, 
              the UK’s leading supplier of mannequins and display busts, 
              after getting a part of himself trapped in a 24mm hole which is 
              designed for a bust stand. The 
              man in question had purchased the display bust by accident after 
              mistaking it for an adult toy. Due to the durability of the display 
              bust, he became concerned that the fire brigade would need to be 
              called to liberate him. But thankfully, a pair of heavy duty scissors 
              were able to cut apart the female 
              bust to release him and relieve his delicate area. After freeing 
              himself, he made a call to Displaysense to complain 
              about the user friendliness of the female bust and that this was 
              not what he had ordered. Steve 
              Whittle the marketing manager of Displaysense was stunned 
              by this incident and said, “These busts 
              are for display purposes only and no-where on the website or in 
              the products packaging does it state that they should be used for 
              adult means”. During the phone call the gentleman in 
              question demanded a refund on the now dismantled female bust at 
              which point the refund request was politely refused. This 
              is not the first time an incident like this has occurred (though 
              it’s a first for Displaysense). In 2005, 
              Michael Plentyhorse an 18 year old from the US was caught after 
              performing an indecent act with an arts centre mannequin Steve Whittle 
              also commented by saying, “We’ve just added these 
              busts to our range and we normally expect some initial teething 
              problems but not in our 30 years of business have we experienced 
              such an incident. I just hope we don’t have to go to the extent 
              of placing a warning sticker onto the bust to deter people from 
              considering such inappropriate acts in the future”. A 
              warning sticker on each bust just might not be enough to prevent 
              such ludicrous situations from happening again but Displaysense 
              are considering possibly placing a warning on the new display 
              bust section of their website.  About
