A father found himself in one of the most unfortunate circumstances during Friday’s earthquake: the operating table during his own vasectomy.
Justin Allen got “the cut” at Urology Health Surgery Center in Horsham, Pennsylvania, when the magnitude 4.8 earthquake rocked the tri-state area and beyond.
He said the doctor was forced to “put the tools down for a moment” before resuming the delicate procedure, which involved cutting the tubes in the testicles and penis.
His wife Bridget said the bizarre event was a further “sign” that “we should never have another child… ever again.”

Allen told it Guardian: “I thought maybe a train passed by or it was just something that happened in that office, even when the doctor said, ‘I think this is an earthquake.’
“I thought he was pranking me, but he had to stop because everything was shaking.”
