22-year-old Jack Woodward ran the London marathon dressed as a giant pair of testicles to honour his friend, Rob Harris, who passed away from testicular cancer last year aged just 21. 38,000 people ran in the marathon but hands down Woodward had the biggest balls of the lot.

Woodward has set up a fundraising campaign in his friend’s honor.

Support for the cause flooded Twitter:
