The internet's greatest responses to Ian Botham's unfortunate willy photo tweet
Mike Egerton Mike Egerton
THIS IS IAN Botham, affectionately known as ‘Beefy’.
He is a legendary former cricketer, widely thought of as being England’s greatest ever all-round player between the stumps. He’s also something of a national institution across the water.

And this morning, his verified Twitter account posted a VERY graphic, up-close picture of somebody’s manhood.
It’s since been deleted, but here’s a manual RT of it. We’ve added a rubber duck for decency.
Botham has said he was hacked by “some idiot”.
He also thanked the hacker for getting him many “hits”.
Needless to say, the internet was shocked and appalled.
The sheer graphic-ness of the photo upset many people.
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
There have been puns aplenty.
The, ahem, wrinkly nature of the object did not go unnoticed.
Some have fingered a possible culprit.
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
And some are still in shock.
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Although others have been looking on the bright side
And for anyone who’s wondering…
So.
That mullet photo again:
