A polyp on his colon was discovered. To honour his promise with Rob McElhenney, the co-chairman of Wrexham AFC Welsh football team, he was requested to make a video of the procedure after losing a bet with McElhenney.

Because Reynolds has been on camera numerous times, he says to the camera, "This is the first time anyone's shoved one up my a**."

Unfortunately, many people are unaware of the risk factors involved with Colonoscopy not getting screened in a timely manner.

Colon cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer that affects more than 50,000 Americans annually.
