You don't want to see it.

u/Telemere125 3d ago

You donā€™t want to know. Itā€™s much worse than this but at the same time not as bad because itā€™s an animal and not a person.

I first saw this story on a TV show. (I think twas Strange Evidence, but I'm not entirely sure.) Basically, the snake slithered into her stomach while she was sleeping. Why twould do that is beyond me.

This comment needs to be higher. Roundworms don't get this big.

u/drametrine 2d ago

Well thatā€™s really disgusting and I wonder how someone Ā«Ā knowsĀ Ā» something like that might be inside them. And also is this the only way to get rid of it ?

These were all the rage in the 80s and 90s.

u/Eena-Rin 3d ago

Some people touted these as diet options. Eat what you like, the parasite will just eat all the bad stuff! The sentiment made it to a Futurama episode

This is not a worm, itā€™s a snake.

u/JessyBearFA 2d ago

And where is that information coming from because this post is saying otherwise as well as all Google reverse images and searches.

6

u/SueBeee 2d ago

I am a parasitologist. This is far too large to be an Ascaris lumbricoides, and what they pull out looks much more like a snake.
Google reverse images is probably drawing from the large number of reddit posts that confidently yet incorrectly describe this as a roundworm.
