Spruce tree grows inside mans lung – for real

Aaah those buggers at news24 again they really find some wierd shit.

This time there is a guy called Artyom Sidorkin (I mean how MADE up is THAT name) who had a SPRUCE tree growing inside him. Not the garden variety shrub mind you, but a fucken SPRUCE tree.

Excerpts:

“Astonished surgeons have removed a two-inch long fir tree growing inside a patient’s lungs.

Doctors thought Artyom Sidorkin, 28, had cancer when he began coughing up blood and complaining of agonising chest pains.

But as they operated to remove a tumour the medics were amazed to discover the perfectly formed spruce thriving inside the lung.

“I blinked three times and thought I was seeing things,” said surgeon Vladimir Kamashev at Izhevsk Hospital in Russia.”

He blinked THREE times? Musta been shocked!

“Doctors believe that Artyom breathed in a tiny seed which then began growing in his lung and that the sharp pains were the plant’s needle-like leaves digging into his lung.

“It was very painful. But to be honest I did not feel any foreign object inside me,” he explained.”

He did not feel a perfectly formed one of THESE inside him…
