That is amazing. I always kinda wondered if anything like that had happened to someone. Your parents tell you all about watermelons growing in people's stomachs but this is way cool. Kinda like that tree man from the Fallout games.

Eww...What if some miniscule seed made its way down into your ear canal and started growing something in your brain?...Or if a seed got in your eye, and ended up growing something behind your eyeball?

I knew one of our creative writers would pick up on the idea ;)

Although it would probably go to waste and remain unused...


I wonder what other plants could grow in lungs, maybe dandelions?

there is a growing debate amongst scientists as to whether this is a hoax or not. How can a plant grow without light?

If the seed can adapt so quickly to use human body heat as an energy source then certain rules of Botany need to be rewritten.

The photo looks like someone jammed a sprig of Rosemary into some jello

This has to be BS.

If plants could grow inside lungs after seeds were inhaled then it would be happening all over the place. Its hayfever turned up to eleven.

I don't understand how it got the nutrients to grow that far. I suppose there is the CO2 in the lungs and the water. But there's can't be that much water in there! Possibly a hoax. Or a crazy Russian who wanted his fifteen minutes and got a friend to shove it down there.

Been pretty well, bit busier than a while...less work but more study yknow?
Doing what I want to with life, getting healthier, working towards something....might consider myself a "real" person by the time I hit 30, ha.
