Louis Cole, Web Series Star, Eats Live Scorpion (VIDEO)

"To Louis, anything is food," the Facebook page for Louis Cole's web series Food For Louis states in its information section.

You would think that would be an exaggeration, but trust us, it's not. Actually, don't trust us. Just watch the video below and you'll have all the proof you need.

If you can stomach it, watch as Cole, 28, shoves the flailing insect into his mouth, and tries desperately (and successfully) to keep it down. On his Facebook page, his followers ask him about everything from the nature of his bowel movements, to what cameras he uses to document his shenanigans.

Others use the opportunity to suggest future food options. Some of the gems are feces, raw frogs and roadkill. Somehow, we have a feeling that he's up to the challenge.

Don't be too impressed by his recent feat though, the Elmbridge Guardian reported that the creepy crawler was a non-stinging scorpion. Please. Piece of cake.

Can't get enough of Cole's extremely strong stomach? Click over to his YouTube channel for videos of him eating everything from 10 blended mice, to three cockroaches. Yup.

Warning, video is extremely graphic.

so many of these comments are laughable, have a sense of humour, and reality! he's been eating whatever he wants since he was a kid, and was persuaded to do this for youtube. the stinger was in and it was a stinging scorpion (for those who doubted), don't complain about cruelty - kids in romania would bbq a dog without blinking a eye. Food rules set in the west are not the reality for most people in the world! Why does he do it? why not. Go complain about something that matters - kids drinking diseased water, domestic abuse, human trafficking....think about it

Bear Grylls does this every week on his survival show! Just cut off the stinger and eat!

Only when he has a glass of fresh piss to wash it down with.

Bear Grylls does it to educate people on survivalism. That is different from pulling a useless stunt such as this.
