Man had cockroach up nose for 3 days.

THIS is the stuff of nightmares - though in this case, the victim could not even fall asleep.

A Taiwanese man by the name of Zheng Yongcai, 47, endured nasal pain and a persistently running nose for three days.

But the pain didn't go away.

Desperation because of a lack of sleep, Mr Zheng checked himself into a hospital on Tuesday morning, reported Apple Daily Taiwan.

The doctor examined him, then pulled a large cockroach, still wriggling, out of his left nostril.

At the sight of the insect, Mr Zheng involuntarily exclaimed: 'Disgusting.'

The creature was 4cm long and 2cm wide and had been buried about 4cm into Mr Zheng's nostril.

The victim said: 'Since something got stuck in my nose three days ago, the pain has kept me from sleeping.

'It felt like there was another living thing struggling inside my body. It was really terrible.'

The doctor who saw him said that this was an extremely rare case and the first he had seen.

He said that the cockroach could have crawled into Mr Zheng's nose while he was sleeping and got stuck there.

When Mr Zheng picked his nose, he may have driven the insect further inside.

I already hated the idea that bugs are planning something while I'm asleep.
Still sounds like a bad awesome creepy magic trick.

I suppose it was more than a cricket?

Actually, I had swallowed a fly accidentally. It flies right into my mouth while I was yawning.

Damn that fly.

Unless you're the guy in the article, in which case, you may inhale as many as four insects a week.

That guy must have massive nostrils. And now I'm freaked out, it's bad enough when spiders watch me shower.

disturbing information to hear for someone whose biggest fear is having a spider lay eggs in his lungs then suffocation through millions of spiders all spinning webs inside said organs.

im glad i live in a country that has a shitty climate which kills most of those kinds of insects. when people here complain about the rain and the cold i just think to myself: "hell, its better than having spiders which can crawl out from under even the heaviest of fly swats hissing with rage and dripping with venom intent on murderous revenge"

[Z0MBiE]

he's right, englands cold/wet weather has it's up-sides.

like girls in tight tops on a cold rainy day...

hmm.

[LunFai]

It's four spiders in a life time... that's what I heard anyway.

Oh thank you I have a new nightmare. :3
My old one was where if small bugs can get in your scalp...
Something like this but I saw a different video on the health channel which made me much more paranoid.
