You never know what you’ll find during an excavation.
Doctors in Bangkok discovered during a colonoscopy that a Chinese tourist had a diamond worth 10 million baht [$277,515] hidden inside of her.
According to Police Colonel Mana Tienmaungpak, doctors removed the 6-carat diamond from a woman’s large intestine after noticing a foreign object inside upon police investigation.
The woman was given medical attention after nature and laxatives failed to get the diamond out.
Both the woman and a Chinese man were arrested on Thursday at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport, after surveillance video showed the duo switching the real diamond for a fake one at a fair outside of the city.
