21 Crazy Experiences People Had As Tourists

There are literal horror movies that aren’t as terrifying as some of the stories you’re about to read. For instance, one Redditor’s younger brother went to Sudan and returned home with a persistent, unexplained rash. Doctors were puzzled by it, and had no clue how to treat it. Weeks later, the younger brother collapsed on the floor in pain, and “hundreds of flies” came flying out of a hole at the base of his neck. It turns out that an African fly had laid eggs in the child’s back, and they hatched a few weeks later.

Other Redditors have shared the most harrowing experiences they’ve had as tourists, and most of these tales will inspire you to keep your ass at home.
