Ah so, it is revealed in the article that while he believes his brain was eaten by a worm, he came to that conclusion while mercury-poisoned (unrelated) and it is most likely not accurate. The brain surrounded the worm with tissue to try and isolate it and the result is similar to having a brain tumor (as I read it, sry if summary is somewhat inaccurate)

WTF?? He was mercury poisoned and had a brain worm? Was he doing some kind of 1800s-era science experiments at home?

Apparently just eating an enormous amount of tuna + picked up the worm larva from some undercooked pork!

One could even say... too much tuna?
