Spider In Ear: Arachnid ‘Filmed In Swimmer’s Infected Ear Canal’

UPDATE. Phew, relax … it was a hoax !

If you had to make a list of the things you’d LEAST like to have in your ear, this is probably number one.

Yup, that looks like a spider peeking out of a man’s ear canal.

The gruesome clip was posted to YouTube by Bruce Branit, who wrote: “Swam at Lake of the Ozarks last weekend and got a super painful ear infection.

“Totally blocked ear canal. Tried to use my phone’s camera to see if I could see anything. Found this!”

It’s not the first time an arachnid has been found nesting in a nice cosy ear.

Last year singer Katie Melua posted video of her own eight-legged guest after noticing a “rustling” sound in her ear.

So I had a rustling in my ear for a week and went to the doctor to have it checked out this morning. THIS little fella is what they found!
