Brain-eating amoebas? Yikes!

[nacreousflaneur]

A killer amoeba, living in a lake, encounters a young boy who's just going swimming with his family. It enters his nostrils, latches on to his olfactory nerve, and from there attacks his brain tissue. It literally eats away at his brain cells until he dies.

Sounds like a horror movie, doesn't it?
But it's absolutely true.
