And this is 'As It Happens'.

The world's only penis museum

has not yet managed to secure

even one of a specimen

of which there are billions.

Mr Hjartarson, why is it

so difficult, do you think

to get a human penis

for your museum?

I've been collecting

for 33 years now

and I'm still waiting

for a human one.

These bodies are all over, you know?

And some of them

are just cut up for... to pieces.

Why haven't I been able

to get a human specimen from there?

Without specific legal permission

given by an individual

you cannot acquire

any part of his body.

Everybody knowing everybody

in Iceland,

this is a sensitive matter,

you know?

Because we are so few

and a specimen would hardly get

to me without the nametag on it.

Nobody would notice if somebody

was buried with one kidney.

Well, he just gave it away,

or we gave it away.

But if he was buried without

a penis, this would be a...

Well, even he or his family

could be a laughing stock, you know?

So this is a part of the taboo

or the fringe

of talking about these things.

The museum wont be completed

until he gets this human penis.

Its like when you have

a series of something

and youre missing one piece

in the series.

Until then, the museum isnt quite real.

People want to build monuments

or leave something behind.

I think this is also a part of it.

It's his, you know,

chance to do something

and leave

something remarkable behind.

My health has deteriorated

this year.

This is worrying me a little.

Because you start thinking that you

haven't got so many years left.

Siggi told me

that he can not die in peace

unless he has completed two things.

One was to translate a book

by the Spanish monk, Las Casas.

Hes done that.

The other is to get...

a human penis.

Thats why I will do whatever I can

to help my cousin

complete the museum.

The human might be the end

of a collection of 34 years.

If I don't get it in the next few

years, I don't know what happens.

ICELAND TODAY:

Good evening, everyone.

It takes guts to donate your private parts

to a public museum.

But thats what Pall Arason,

the famous adventurer, has done.

I have no use for my penis

once Im dead.

- Didnt you have to think this over?

- No.

I never contemplate.

I think quickly.

And I always follow through.

The first time we met Pall

he started bragging and boasting

about his way with women

and his outstanding

sexual performance.

Pall was getting up there in age

and I asked him

if he had any use for his penis

once he was dead.

He replied "No. "

Pall Arason is an authority.

He's a famous guy in Iceland.

So that would be an extremely

valuable acquisition to get him.
