Okay, just got done watching "Raiders of the lost arc" and could not believe what I thought I saw, so I rewound...and sure as ___, the French Archeaologist dude ate a fly! Actually it lands on his lower lip, and then went into his mouth...and did NOT come out!! Am I losing my mind? Or has NEone else seen this?

I've seen it every time. I think it just flew away and we didn't see it, or it got cleverly edited out.


For anyone who doesn't know WTF, we're talking about Rene in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Uhh...and? People eat bugs all the time. What's so odd that some French guy would swallow a fly? You know how many spiders you swallow during your life while asleep?


A lot.

pwned.

but seriously...swallowing bugs on accident isn't uncommon. I'm sure everyone has had it where they are just walking outside and suddenly choke when they inhale. Yup you just breathed in a small flying insect.....no big deal...your stomach acid will make short work of it.

You are quite incorrect. A small percentage of vermin(bugs) and fecal matter(rat poo) is allowed in manufactured foods. If you have ever in your life eaten any type of grain based product(bread), then you have consumed ground up insects.

1981. The internet did not exist. DVD players did not exist. VCRs were rare.

A movie theater in Springfield, Ohio.

Yellow and black Plymouth Duster parked outside.

A 16-year-old kid is watching "raiders of the Lost Ark" with several of his friends.

"Hey!" I said. "That guy just ate a fly!".
