I'm still salty that I once lost a game of trivia because I said this myth was false, and the "official" answer said it was true.
It was intended to be an example of a ridiculous "false fact" that went on to become widely believed. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/swallow-spiders/ Also, I can barely eat 6 spiders in one sitting.
Plot twist: these are 6 legged bed bugs. The survivor was right, but now it has to live with the fact that its last words to its buddy were, "You're stupid."
True or not, this becomes moot when you sleep using a full face mask CPAP. It’s also nice, because it also protects against rank farts.
Afaik this is a myth someone put on the internet to see how misinformation spreads. Source: I read it on the internet

Now you know why.
Darn Spiders Georg.
If it helps, I - a stranger - am absolutely livid on your behalf.
It does help, thank you.
Sorry, the card says moops
Was their source the moops?
Here you go, if it’s any comfort after the fact.
Nice.
Do you have a source that this claim is just a myth?
