Shocking footage has revealed a spider spinning its web inside a man’s ear canal.
The unnamed man from eastern China went to the doctor after experiencing a ‘crawling sensation’ in his right ear.
The doctor, Dr Zhang Pan from the Hospital of Yangzhou University, used an endoscope to investigate the cause of the crawling sensation - and was shocked by what he discovered.

The youngster was taken to hospital to be examined by a specialist after noticing the buzzing noise and feeling a strange sensation in his right ear.
He felt no real pain and his hearing was fine, and when the doctor took a look inside his ear he found something unexpected that would make many people's skin crawl.
A tick had crawled inside the boy's ear and it appeared to be implanted in the eardrum, where it was surrounded by inflamed tissue.
