Who wants to see what came out of my brother's ear this afternoon?

[OutrageousFlavourLikeFreesias]

He was apparently as deaf as a post before, and now has the hearing of a bat. I wasn't there for the extraction, but he very kindly took a photo for me, along with a coin for scale.

And and and - tomorrow he says I can have a go at his other ear.

Enjoy.

Is that a 1p or a 2p coin?

I started at that pic for ages before reading your post, trying to work out how in the jewel he got he penny in to his ear in the first place.

Jewel spell checked for hell is a new one!

That is a beauty! It looks like some kind of plant matter with the stalk in the middle and two (very) manky leaves.

I cannot imagine something that big coming out of an ear. Think I need a video.
