I think I've told the story before... but ...
At the alternative festival I like to go to, a French-speaking guy came in to first aid with "somezing in my ear".
Otoscope confirmed ... something ...
He was laid (held) down while oil was trickled in to his ear. The docs were expecting this to drown the crittur so it would float out or be tweezed out, but instead a 5 centimeter long centipede crawled out of the guy's ear and down his cheek.
Now, botfly larva...
