Anal probing is the insertion of an instrument into the anal cavity of a human or animal to assess the condition of the lower bowel. Instruments used include pliers, tongs, fiber-optic cables, syringes, eye droppers, thermometers, and specialized balloons. Anal probing is most often used to identify digestion problems; however, it can also be used to identify parasites, organ damage, anal flooding, anal bruising, and foreign objects in the rectal cavity.
In popular culture
Anal probing by aliens is a common theme in popular culture that originates from the Christopher Walken film: Communion. It has been replicated in the following examples:
- The South Park episode "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe" in which Cartman gets an anal probe by aliens, which is also the Pilot episode. Also, in the episode "The Death of Eric Cartman", Butters is "examined" by a doctor through use of a giant, red, vibrating anal probe.
- In the "Citizen Kang" segment of the Simpsons episode Treehouse of Horror VII, the character Homer Simpson gets abducted by aliens and reacts by saying "I suppose you want to probe me. Well, you might as well get it over with" and starts mooning the aliens. The obviously disgusted aliens however react by saying "Stop! We have reached the limits of what rectal probing can teach us!".
- A memorable sketch, "Career Crisis", from the TV program The Kids in the Hall S04E11, features two aliens discussing the purpose and motivation for anally probing Earthlings, and that all they have learned is that "one in ten likes it."
- Gaia Online, an anime-based role-playing game website, held a 2006 Halloween event featuring trading of alien, human, and bovine anal probes.
- In the cartoon series Futurama, the character Philip J. Fry is abducted by a flying saucer whose vanity plate reads "PROBE #1."
- In the Destroy All Humans! video game series, there is a weapon called the anal probe, which is shot at people for brain stems.
- In the movie Men in Black II, the character Newton (played by David Cross) raises the question, "What's up with anal probing?"
- The Supernatural episode "Tall Tales" deals with aliens probing humans.
- In the movie Planet 51, two aliens have a conversation about probing and using corks to prevent it.
- In the Family Guy episode "Foreign Affairs (Family Guy)" (Season 9, Episode 17), Quagmire gets abducted by aliens and asks if they still do anal probing. The two aliens respond, "Nah, that's more or less been retired."
