Wang Shangkun was 17 years old when he made the fateful decision. Shortly after the illegal surgery he began suffering from a decreased level of kidney function.

Eight years on, the 25-year-old is now bedridden for life after his remaining organ failed.

Mr. Shangkun had sold his kidney to black market organ harvesters in April 2011 where he received AUD$4500 — purchasing a iPhone 4 and iPad 2 with the funds.

“Why do I need a second kidney? One is enough,” he said in reports at the time.


This sounds so much like an Onion story.

Can’t his family just buy him another black market kidney?
Not worth the risk with the new RAZR coming out.

probably reluctant to give one to someone as stupid as that unless there's a glut of spare kidneys
