Hollywood actor Josh Brolin has put himself firmly in the frame for 2019’s Darwin Award after leaving himself “crazy burned” and in “severe pain” after trying “perineum sunning,” a new health craze.
The controversial new wellness trend that encourages exposing one of the body’s most delicate areas to the full force of the sun has made its way to Hollywood — to seemingly disastrous effects.
Actor Josh Brolin tried out the “perineum sunning” craze, which touts the alleged benefits of tanning the thin area of skin between the anus and the vagina or penis. The practice has recently gained steam after a video posted by holistic influencer Ra of Earth suggested such “sunning,” claiming that it provides one with “more energy from” the sun in 30 seconds “than you would in an entire day being outside with your clothes on.”

Fox News reports: Another influencer, who goes by MetaphysicalMeagan, also made headlines for her similar claims of “perineum sunning” for the benefit of health or energy.
However, what Ra of Earth apparently failed to mention was to not overdo it with vitamin D — a lesson Brolin learned the hard way.
“Tried this perineum sunning that I’ve been hearing about and my suggestion is DO NOT do it as long as I did. My pucker hole is crazy burned and I was going to spend the day shopping with my family and instead I’m icing and using aloe and burn creams because of the severity of the pain,” Brolin shared on Instagram, along with a string of curse words calling out the “stupid” trend that may in fact be detrimental to one’s health.
Thousands of people on social media have liked and shared the “bum sunning” tactic – with many touting that it gives them more energy. A few, of course, are also mocking the practice.
Aside from Brolin, Shailene Woodley was an early adoptee of sunning one’s nether regions. In a 2014 interview with Into the Gloss, Woodley shared that she sunbathes her vagina to recharge.
“I was reading an article written by an herbalist about yeast infections and other genital issues, and she said there’s nothing better than vitamin D.”
She went on: “If you’re feeling depleted, go in the sun for an hour and see how much energy you get. Or, if you live in a place that has heavy winters, when the sun finally comes out, spread your legs and get some sunshine.”
However, the Hollywood elite may be disappointed to learn that the practice of sunning below the belt is hotly discouraged by doctors, as the skin down there is more likely to burn and develop melanoma, even with SPF, Health.com reports.
“As a dermatologist, I cannot recommend any sun exposure without sun protection,” Dr. Nazanin Saedi, director of the Jefferson Laser Surgery and Cosmetic Dermatology Center, told Health.com. “These areas, just like other areas of the body, do need sun protection and clothing tends to provide that.”
Instead, doctors advise getting enough vitamin D through diet — instead of sun-worshipping.

Thanks for the tip, Josh! Might be the reason why the sun “don’t shine” there.
The Herd needs some Thinning.Let’s start with the Liberals.
Hilarious, that guy calls himself Ra of earth, what is he trying to combine the Egyptian god with Mother Gaia, worshiping the sun and earth like the druids and every other mystery religion. The mystery religions began with Nimrod in Babylon/Summeria thousands of years ago, they made a false messiah/ religion to blur the coming of christ. This religion trailed throughout all countries and times. Sun Gods Mithras, Apollo, Sol Invictus, Quetalacoatl, Huang Ti, Baal, Tammuz, Osiris, on and on, every religion. Maccu Pichu is on such a high peak because its closer to the sun, they offered and pry still offer human sacrifices there, just like at almost all UNESCO sites. This article has so many occult references its crazy. New age religion= mediums, yoga, crystal healing, meditating not on the bible but clearing your mind, astrology………this stuff has a name in antiquity…….its called witchcraft
“Nothing new under the sun”, save for Josh Brolin’s sphincter.
