A Twitter account called History Lovers Club shared the old remains have shared the photo with the caption, "Masturbating man, Pompeii, 79 CE." Interestingly, the image was shared initially by the Pompeii Parco Archaeologico in 2017 with no reference of the masturbating in any case. In fact, an archaeology expert from the University of Naples had stated in a report, "The individual in the photo is an adult man, killed by the hot pyroclastic surge (hot gas and ash cloud, which killed most of the population living around Mount Vesuvius), with both arms and legs flexed due to the heat." However, the same picture on Twitter is now going viral with the funniest reactions. ‘Sperm Extractor’ Pic Goes Viral! Internet in Splits as Memes and Jokes Follow…As Expected.
