I can just imagine him trying to explain to his boss why he had to miss work.

OMG OMG OMG. All he probably did was breathe some pollen-like material. Who knew plants could do _that_?

It's fake.

No 5 inch baby pine tree is going to have fully mature needles on it.

And have you ever heard of this happening before? You would think if it was possible, this would be a regular occurrence.

Doy. I'm glad this is a hoax, because it's too freaky. I was surprised a plant could grow in the dark, constricted space of a lung, and lo and behold, a plant can't.

Besides, for a biopsy, did they take the whole freaking lung out?

It looks like about a pound of beef.

"Besides, for a biopsy, did they take the whole freaking lung out?"

Yeah, so it's gotta be a fake. They already had a lung hanging around, so they put a tree in it and photographed it.

How stupid are these people?

I would say just about as stupid as the guys claiming they had found Big Foots body.

Any idiot can tell they are fakes.

"Hey guys, we've got this lung. Let's put a tree in it."

LOL. There are some scary -a** drugs in Russia.
