Swallowed 1 x bug at 25mph today, no chewing involved, straight down, gulp!! :shock:
Now after trying to cough fly back up to no avail I got to thinking, how long will the fly take to die???

I am going to have a nice chicken Jalfezi for tea just in case it is still flapping or laying eggs etc, my local indians Jalfrezi kills most living things.

    What happens if the bug likes the jalfrezi - remember John Hurt in Alien?

    Just got back tonight from the boys annual golf weekend and after the 10 pints of blacksheep I consumed last night I can guarantee that will kill the fly, my stomach's still feeling it now

    It's at times like these you could do with heartburn.

    Failing that try marmite on toast....there's a 50/50 chance it will dislike it so much it will divebomb directly to your stomach acids to escape it!

    Being a vegetarian the only meat that passes my lips is the odd flying insect :)

    I try to spit them out before swallowing :oops: I did that once only to find it wasn't a fly - it was a crown that had become detached. You'd be surprised how many pieces of road look exactly like a tooth when I unsuccessfully tried to find it. Cost me a fortune for a new tooth :(

    When you swallow a fly, it lays eggs in your intestines that hatch and become maggots. The maggots stay in your intestine, burrowing into the wall of the gut but they don't mature into flies, they just breed and produce more maggots. After two months you could have up to 100,000 maggots in your intestine.

    You won't die for several months, but you will lose consciousness and your body will become controlled by the maggot hive mind.

    So everyone else had best keep their mouths closed when cycling eh.
    You just have to ride like you never have to breathe again.

    Hmmm, explains a lot!

    I believe they also hold noisy parties in your intestines unitl the early hours of the morning, and there's nothing you can do about it!
