One of the (more horrifying, for a guy) stories I've heard, which is likely an urban myth, concerns the fact that cyanoacrylates are also pretty effective at bonding human skin. It involves a well-known Hollywood actress from the 80s and early 90s, who I won't name. Apparently after a disappointing night with her boyfriend, she superglued a certain part of his anatomy to his leg while he slept.

I'll leave the results to your imagination.

I will add that acetone or nail-polish remover is an effective solvent for superglue, should you find yourself in this, uhh, position. Hmmm... might put a bottle of acetone in the bedside table drawer...


EDIT: Here's the link to Snopes take on the story http://www.snopes.com/risque/revenge/superglu.htm
