The stunt was worth around £250...

We hope you're listening closely, because this is a weird one: Nickelback's Chad Kroeger has revealed that he once paid a drum technician to stick his penis in the blades of a electric fan.

Chad was speaking to Men's Health magazine when he made the confession, admitting that he only paid the guy about 600 deustchmarks - that's £250 - to do the deed during a tour of Germany.

He told the magazine, "We've always been very close to our crew, so we've had a lot of fun getting them to do silly, stupid things that could possibly cause them to hurt or injure themselves in some way.

"We were in Germany years ago - this was one of my favourite stories - and we were just bored. There was a heat wave going on in Germany.

"In a back room in the venue where we were playing, there was an old fan with a metal blade... And we paid the drum tech about 600 deustchmarks [to] stick his Johnson in the fan."

Chad added, "He took the money… I can still hear the 'bleh-bleh-blehhhhhhh' of the blade slowly spluttering to a stop, and this blood-curdling scream. It was fantastic.

"Somebody had video footage of this somewhere that needs to be resurrected and shown at the guy's next birthday party."

We're not understanding exactly what is so 'fantastic' about that, Chad, but whatever you're into.
