On average, the testes create almost 300 million sperm per day. As if that stat wasn’t already ridiculously impressive, the testes manage to also make 3000 per second. In just under a month, the body actually develops more sperm than there are people. 

Compression of the testicles was once a rare form of execution. While it didn’t happen often, there have been historical accounts of men having their testicles squeezed until they died as a form of legal punishment. One of the better-known ones dates back to the Ottoman Empire in 1622.
