Six Shocking Stories - Monster Inside Me

most of the time. Yeah, but I think when you're a mom and you have a little you know, you have two kids, and you're home by yourself and you're in the kitchen trying to cook, the six year old is old enough to kind of, hey, just look after your sibling. I'm here in the next room, so I could cook dinner or something. So I totally mad, Like

a totally normal scenario to me. Yeah, So the mom goes in the room after hearing some crying and the baby's forehead is just bleeding profusely, and they're like, what the hell. So they rushed to the hospital and they're just kind of confused. What happened because it kind of looked like it was a gunshot wound, but there's no gun in the house, so and they didn't hear a loud bang like that or anything, so like what could have possibly happened. So looking at the wound, I'm gonna

try to describe it to you. It's kind of an indented wound that you would see when a bullet goes into the skull, it leaves its mark as it's going on its way through, and there's an indentation there. But the thing that you could tell that it's not a gunshot wound is because there's no area of abrasion or gunpowder,

et cetera, anything surrounding the wound. And so what they did was they did an x ray, was the first thing that they did, and they saw that the kid had an orbit fracture or broken bones around the eye and also had a contusion in the brain, which is a bruise basically on the brain. But what they saw was that there was an opaque foreign body on the x ray, so they know something penetrated his head, they

just didn't know what. So they get it out and it's a marble and okay, children play with marbles, But how did it still get so deep in this kid's head? Right? Turns out the weapon of choice was a sling shot. Yeah, so kid playing with a sling shot put a marble and it shot it into his kids this kid's forehead, and they're seriously lucky because that kid could have lost an eye and something far worse. Which this is pretty bad, honestly,

but it could have been a lot worse. So I you know, last summer we went to this farm type of amusement park in near Lancaster and they were selling those rubber band guns and slingshots and all this stuff, and I just was thinking about this story. How you know, it's an innocent thing that kids like to play with and stuff, but kids are dumb and they put stuff like rocks and everything like that, and it could just lead to serious injuries. I think most children can weaponize almost any object.

tattoo mark in her skin for sixty plus years. But the most interesting part of that is that when you read the comments on Instagram, there's hundreds of comments of people saying, I that happened to me. I have a pencil tattoo. So it's like it's just like a really

common thing for kids that do dumb shit, you know. Yeah, like do you ever have a baby just like take your glasses off your face and then smash them right in your face and you're like, oh, wow, does this delicate object that I wear every day now injure me? But I get I would argue that we don't know how dangerous most objects are until a child has them in their hands.

in a water logged patty field. So that's like a field where rice is grown, I'm assuming because she was a toddler and she was you know, splashing your in the water and everything that her parents were like just run around naked, you know, as most people let their kids do, and like, you know, if they're running through a sprinkler outside or anything. So she's just playing, minding her own business, and the parents look over and see that a leech is near her genitals and what goes

on from there. So the parents see this leech and they go over and they try to grab it because they see where it's going, and the leech ended up going right up inside of her vagina, which is so outrageous, right, So the leech goes up there, and the parents take the kid home and they're like, you know what, We're gonna insert some salts and some herbs and try to lure this leech out, right, And that didn't work, So they finally brought her to a medical center, and the

medical center stuck a bunch of instruments up there and tried to get it out. Then all of a sudden she started having abdominal pain, discomfort and things like that. So they brought her to a hospital and there they did an ultrasound and they saw that this leech was still alive inside of her body, but now it was not in the vagina anymore. It was in her abdominal cavity.

So they did emergency surgery. And well, we'll say emergency surgery, it really wasn't until twenty two hours after this thing crawled up there and they finally found it inside of her abdominal cavity, sitting on her organs in a big clot and a blood sitting around it, and it was dead. And when they took it out, the thing was ten centimeters long, so big. Yeah, I mean, the pictures of this are crazy when you see, like, you know, how tiny her body is versus just how large this thing is.

especially in organs and everything like that. Now, this paper was written up as if this was the first time it's reported that a leech was able to perforate the uterus and get inside of the abdominal cavity. But I also have a theory that those doctors that were poking and prodding and trying to get it out of her perforated her uterus by accident. Perhaps, So I'm not I'm not sure, And like obviously, like I didn't look at the case, so.

case was in India. There's some parts of India that are extremely poor and they don't have access to normal health care like you would think of. So for them to even go to a doctor maybe hours away, and then when they do, it might cost so much money that they really don't want to do it unless it's like a life or death situation, you know what I mean. So you don't really you can't really say you know, yeah for sure? All right to this next Onst. Cad I hear that tastes good?

amputated body parts were found at this scene. So explain what this autopsy looks like after they find this guy. So when they find him, he has obvious cuts all over his body, and like Maria said, he had all of these body parts amputated, but the body parts weren't close by, and he had one major mark across his neck that transsected his trachea and also one of his major veins, his jugular vein in his neck.

means that he ate them. Yes, so after they did, and yes, let's repeat that that his toe and his ear were in his stomach at autopsy when they so you have to see the pictures of this because this case is outrageous too. But when they did some further investigation, found his family and everything like that, they found out that he had this extended history of suicidal ideations, suicidal attents.

He was diagnosed with with a psychosis at some point, and he was medicated, wasn't medicated, so he was having problems for quite some time. He was he was only thirty years old, but he was hearing voices telling him to kill you afusing synthetic canno I can't ever say this word cannabinoids for years too. So his parents were really worried about that. And then he had you know this, which which definitely didn't help his situation, and then he just kind of had the spiral of mental health issues

and all these other suicide attempts in the past. So my one question is is that his scrotum was amputated, right, Yeah, where was that? I don't know that I'd like to know, because it wasn't found that the scene unless I just can't even imagine because the ear and the toe were completely not digested even a little bit like that.

The first thing you're going to do is like put your hands up and try to push them off of you.

could you stab yourself with this? Yes, and then he had this extended history of this of this particular mental health issues, and we know he tried to kill himself several times, and he tried to stab himself. There's just like multiple things that make them go with that.

and you didn't see that in this case. And we talk about cannibalism a lot too, but I don't think we've I've ever seen a case of somebody eating their own body parts. Yeah, this particular case, now i I've heard. I think I do have a couple of cases in the Gross Room of similar situations, but this, this is the first time that I've ever read that during the autopsy they opened in Oregon and found or found body parts that were not digested. Yeah. Because the pictures too,

they're like like swallowed whole. Yeah, and it's insane you said earlier, they're not digested or anything. So it's like, I imagine being the medical examiner performing this.

So sign up today. Yeah, so visit the grossroom dot com to sign up for twenty dollars for a whole year of Gross. We decided to extend the sale an additional day, so you have till the end of today, which is July twenty third, to sign up. All right, So this next story is titled in the Gross Room Dragon Dick. A woman went to visit her twenty six year old at his apartment. So as she approaches the door, she notices a little piece of a scarf like coming

through the crack. So as she open opens the door, she discovers that her son is dead on the floor and he has a ligature around his neck which was made from a towel and a cotton scarf tied together. Yeah, so he was found on face down and he only had on a t shirt and socks, so his whole butt was exposed, and he had fluid around his genitals

that appeared to be semen. So what they did was they checked out the scene and they interviewed the mom and everything, and they found out that so this is opposed to the other case, like this guy didn't have any mental health issues. He didn't have any history of suicidal ideations or attempts or anything like that. So they really wanted to find out what happened in this case. So they started looking around his apartment, and they opened

up his computer and they found some interesting pornography. Yeah, so on his computer there appeared to be like a page from Reddit open, which was an anime dragon with a six peck in enormous penis. So it appeared that he was jerking off to this picture, yes, and he was performing. So when they did the autopsy, they found that he had he had died of asphyxia. I mean, you can't just say that obviously just because he's found

with the ligature around the neck. But he had a dema in his in his lungs and in his brain, and he had uh some congestion in his lungs as well, and he had particular hemorrhages on some of his organs and things, and these all of this along with the ligature that made a mark around his neck were he it was consistent within his fhixial death. So when they look at he had, he definitely had an asphixial death.

And then when they look at all of those other things, like he didn't have the suicidal ideations and stuff, and that they found this weird fetish kind of porn at the scene, they determined that he died from auto eerotic exphyxiation. We had mentioned that before because the actor David Carridine had also died from that. So explain why people do that. Well,

they do it because it intense intensifies an orgasm. So there's it's just putting it out there, like there's no safe way to do it, but lots of people do it, didn't.

of that. So yeah, so there's no safe way to do it because you're basically closing off your carotid arteries to deprive your brain of oxygen so you have more of an intense orgasm. But people that partake in this, and I mean lots of people do it and don't die, so it works. Sometimes you know, they have like a like a safety in order to stop the choking, like while they're doing it, and in this case, this guy would use the door handle and just opening the door

handle would release the ligature off of his neck. But unfortunately, what happens when you close off your karate is is that you can you could pass out really really fast, and that's what happens, so he didn't, which is even sadder. He didn't die automatically. If someone was there, they would have been able to save his life, but unfortunately he

was by himself. And another thing that's interesting is that when when people are found in this situation dead, there's often other fetishes associated with this that are found at the scene, such as pornographic material sometimes like weird kinky things like dragons with dicks and stuff female like uh, lingerie, ropes, bondage, things like that are found at the scene as well. And as far as I can remember, almost every single case that I've seen of this had some kind of

thing like that. Usually was like the guy was wearing lingerie or something like that. And it is important to note that it's most common in the United States to die from this, but it does happen worldwide. Is it common if they've determined it's not a homicide to include the type of pornography in the case because it I don't know. I kind of feel bad for the mom because it's like this this picture of this like anime.

We're talking about this on six Shocking Stories right now, we're talking about it, but we're talking about it because the picture of the porn was included in the case file, which kind of like what is the relevance, like he would I don't know. I just think it's weird. If if they were trying to be like he was, you know, a child predator something like that, I would understand why they're included. But like if that's what he gets off to, like,

it's not for me, but it's for some people. So I don't understand why it has to be in.

Someone could have came to his apartment and murdered him and this and that, Like what are they gonna say, like like that this like photo kind of builds their case, like no, this was you know, he didn't have the sister's suicidal ideations, and he also had this on his computer. Look, this is exactly what we found on his computer. I understand it should be in the case file for sure. I don't know because this isn't from a case file. This is from a medical journal.

the guy is. It's not like embarrassing his mom. She'd you know what I mean, Like, after your explanation, I understand why the photo would be in like the police file, right, or of what or the incident report whatever happened, right, But you're saying this is sorted from a medical journal, so therefore, why was that relevant like you could just say imagery was found on the computer. That was totally yeah, they could have said that there was like some is

there a name for like animal animation poem? Yeah, like yeah, they totally could have just said that. But I mean, I don't mind seeing it, and I'm interested to see what people are looking at jargonaufs No, I mean I don't know.

you won't believe this. And I sent the picture to him and he's like, oh my god, are the kids looking at that on their phone? And I was like, no, they're not looking at that on their iPads? Like this is this was from a medical case, it just was hilarious because it's just kind of like such it's it's like such a funny, weird picture that you can't even really imagine that anyone would actually like get.

believe how outrageous details of it were. It really gets you thinking, Like that's why when I posted this this this article in the Grosser Room, I added at the end, like, do you know anybody that has any that Scott has a story where they found something like super embarrassing from a person that they don't that they you know, like you saw it and you wish you didn't see it kind of a thing.

I mean I also think of how many times, you know, when you were redoing the kitchen and you were at like the kitchen showroom and you were trying to pull up your like Pinterest picture of what you wanted the counters to look like, and then they see like pictures of organs in your caparole and they're just like.

was pregnant. Yeah, there's like people that are just completely checked out and don't realize what's happening with their body, and like a woman of child bearing age, that's like going that will be the most common cause. There's other causes, but like, come.

eighteen inches thirty like huge. They take up your whole entire table, So it's big, But for an overysyst, it's kind of like.

cancer assist. So we have to kind of describe what we see inside, and this particular one is a very interesting one. So when they opened it up, there was there was actually tissue in it that resembled this small deformed human almost. It had hair, It had what appeared to be an arm, what appeared to be legs, and what appeared to be like a little penis growing between the legs. And when they cut through it, there was skin, fat,

different organs, prostate, gland, all of this weird stuff. Right, So when they looked at it under the microscope, they actually couldn't believe that this thing that looked like a tiny penis was actually penile tissue with the reptile tissue in it under the microscope, and she was diagnosed with something called a feet of form tarotoma, and.

not require sex. It does not require a sperm like this all just happens on its own, which is why it's never going to be a human. It's not like it's an abortion, it's not a miscarriage. It's just like a tumor made out of people's cells. So this could only happen because it arises from this very specific part of the body that has the cells that are where

babies are formed. Yes, you can get them in other parts of the body too, though, but for like, let's just talk about this one and not get into details of like all the other things that could happen, but yes, this, this happens from ovarian tissue. This doctor Vercal, he's like one of the first pathologists you would say. Back in eighteen sixty three, he term he coined the term terotoma that comes from the Greek word terrorists, which means monster.

So that's why I named this post monster inside me. So the good news is that most of these tarotomas are benign. So when when you look at it and you look at it under the microscope and it all looks like normal hair cells, normal fat cells, things like that, then that means that it's benign. When you start seeing like those cells look weird under the microscope and they look like immature versions of all those tissues, they could rarely be cancer, but it's very rare that they turn

into cancer. So what's the difference between this and like fetus in fee two. Fetus in fe two is a condition where a person is pregnant with twins and when it's developing, one of the twins develops within the other twins. Okay, like you need a sperm and an egg to create that, but it could it look similar to this because the

second twin is essentially not fully developing. Well no, I mean, because you wouldn't have that, You would only have that with you would need another baby, you know what I mean, Like it just wouldn't it just wouldn't be like this, Like that that does happen in fetus in fee two, that one of them can can grow normally. It doesn't just have to be fetus in feet two. It could be other types of twin situations that one gets all of the energy and the other one doesn't form properly

because it's not hooked up properly. Basically, it's not growing properly. But yeah, in this case, like this could only happen arising from the ovary like this, Like it's not it has nothing to do with a pregnancy whatsoever, or sex Like this could occur in a twelve year old girl, like yeah, you know what I mean, without ever having

to have sex or anything. It's just it's not. That's the important difference is that all of those other conditions like a cardiac, twins and all these different things that could happen happen when there's conception. Okay, all right, so our last one, which is called an uncanny accident, was submitted by a listener. So this woman's daughter was chasing her puppy next to their fire pit. She tripped, fell and fell directly onto an aluminum can, which sliced her

neck open. Yeah, so she called her mom kind of freaking out, and her mom was twenty minutes away at the time, and the fire department was only ten minutes away. So she they called nine one one, and the mom was like, I'm coming home right now, and drove like a complete maniac to her daughter, which is understandable, and

she actually beat the fire department from getting there. And when she arrived to the scene, she saw that her daughter had this giant incision on her neck and like the fat and the muscle were cut and it was just really gruesome. It was bleeding, and she was scared

to death that her daughter cut a vital structure. And I think when the fire department of the paramedics showed up, they realized, like, okay, it's not as bad as it looks kind of, and they were telling her like, yo, lady, chill out, chill out, you're freaking out, and you know, they brought her to the hospital and everything. And while it looked like a really gruesome wound. She the juggular vein by millimeters, and the doctor said that she was really lucky, but they were able to just sew her

back up and she was fine. When you see this, do you think, all right, so this cut was on the side of her neck. Do you think if it was in the front it would have been fatal or it just happened? Because actually, actually, if you get cut in the front of your neck, it's probably better because you can slice the trachea open, but that's not that's

something that could be repaired. So the major structure is that you would die right away from are on the sides of your neck, and the carotid arteries, which are the really bad ones to cut, because if you cut those, forget it, you're gonna bleed all over the place. Because arteries bleed worse because the arteries are part of the pump of the heart, so they're pumping the oxygenated blood up to your brain. They're directly off of the aorta too,

so you're just getting this big rush of blood. So when they get cut, every single time your heart beats, it's like gush, gush, gush, whereas the veins are bringing it back to your heart and they caught the blood slows comes slower back to the heart. So if a vein gets cut, you have like much more time to get to the hospital and stuff because it's not coming

out as fast. Like if she had somehow caught one of her karateid arteries, I mean, she wouldn't even have been able to make it to the hospital, you know what I mean. So but yeah, but I mean a good anatomic setup is that the kartid arteries are pretty deep and in the neck, like you kind of really got to get in there, but the the jugular veins are fairly superficial.
