Never keep your lube next to your super-glue, it can only end badly.

Dr Matthew Valente told TLC documentary Sex Sent me to the ER that one of the more bizarre he has faced was when a man had done precisely that, and ended up supergluing his hand to his penis according to the Huffington Post.

The night before, [the patient' was fixing his lamp next to his bed and he left the superglue tube on the nightstand," Valente explained.

This was right next to where he and his wife kept a tube of lubrication on hand for lovemaking, which they decided to do that night.

"Only he went a little too fast, and - voila! - his hand became stuck to his penis," Valente said.

"This was a large amount of skin that was affixed together," Valente said. "There wasn't just a small amount of glue. It wasn't just one finger. It was, in fact, his entire palm and all his fingers, which were tightly affixed to his genitals."
