This is a crazy story I stumbled upon today. Definitely on the top of worst ways to go.
So, our story took place sometime in 1875.
It begins with a female factory worker doing her duties...Then a mouse appears on her work table and she starts screaming in horror.
Soon a heroic male co-worker appears and grabs the mouse with his hand. Damn, so manly 🙃😂
If only he knew what was to follow...
The victory was short lived as the mouse would not fall so easily.
It escaped his grasp, entered his sleeve and out again through his open-neck shirt. After running rounds around his neck it eventually found refuge...in his mouth. And then his esophagus 👄
The man started grasping for air while the mouse was now in panic mode, slashing and biting him from the inside trying to escape.
And soon after the man was dead. 🙃
The story was originally published by
Manchester Evening News and doesn't clarify if the mouse managed to survive. It also doesn't clarify if it was the internal bleeding or the chocking that got him first. Probably the latter but maybe he was able to get some air in prolonging his misery 😖
Tldr, what a horrific way to go. Choking while experiencing the horrible pain from a mouse eating the insides of your throat.
