Man's 40-year-old Hobby: Eat Live Frogs and Mouse

    frog-swallowed man

    Farmer Jiang Mu-sheng from Hengfeng County of Jiangxi Province has a hobby to eat live tree frogs and mice. He claimed that since he had this unique hobby, not only his illness such as back aches, cough and gastrics were cured, but also he became more energetic.

    Recently, the journalist met Mr. Jiang at his village in Geyuan Township, witnessing a live frog swallowed by him.

    Jiang told the reporter that he is now 66 years old and previously was a staff of Geyuan Supply and Marketing Cooperative. When he was then 26 years old, he suffered frequent back aches and coughs. One day, he accidently got to know a local senior hill-keeper named Yang Ding-cai. The elder Yang told Jiang that eating live tree frogs can cure his illness, for which the senior specially caught 3 frogs for Jiang. In the beginning, Jiang dared not to swallow those frogs when seeing fiercely jumping around. After watching Yang swallowing one of the three frogs as an example, Jiang took his dertermination to finish the remaining two, which turned out no any discomfort to him. Surprisingly, after doing this non-stop for a whole month, Jiang's illness were cured.

    Later Jiang began to test to eat small live mice. Gradually, swallowing live tree frogs and small mice becomes his hobby.

    "I have once swallowed more than 20 mice a day," Jiang grinned.
