Artyom Sidorkin of Russia (28 years old) thought he was going into surgery to remove a tumor.
much to everyone's surprise-
It was actually a 3" fir tree found growing in his lung.
truth is stranger than fiction.
Apparently, he inhaled a seed pod.
I could think to myself, "What the hell! They need sunlight!"
then again, Firs and pines have lasted extinction, no sunlight, extreme temperatures and still grow as long as there is water.
ew.
Godspeed Artyom.
