A nine-year-old boy got relief from a constant earache but only after a doctor diagnosed him with having two eight legged creatures in his ear.

In a bizarre chase for zoo officials, a spider monkey not only escaped from a Mexico City zoo but also boarded a bus. If this was not enough for his antics, the monkey also attacked a passenger during its ride. According to Red Cross officials, the monkey boarded the bus at about 11 pm Monday after escaping from the San Juan de Aragon Zoo. It then sat next to the bus driver for almost an hour as he drove through the city.

A woman was stunned to see an eight-legged spider crawling out of the grapes she had eaten some time back, but was happy it didn't happen while she was eating them. "If that thing had come crawling out then . . . Oh, it would have been more than a shriek," said Dottie Brown, according to AP.
