The "dreaded shrinks" is a fictional disease invented by Roald Dahl. It features prominently in his book "The Twits". It can be contracted by standing on one's head for an excessive length of time. Symptoms: first your head shrinks into your neck, then your neck shrinks into your body, then your body shrinks into your legs, then your legs shrink into your feet, and in the end there's nothing left except a pair of shoes and a bundle of old clothes. Treatment: the only cure for the shrinks is to be stretched.
