Poor fella must be in a world of torment right now

This image has gone viral and we can see why…

Jordan Lingle from Indiana, USA was out playing capture the flag with friends when was set upon by the hungry rascals.

He thought he had picked the perfect spot to hide but little did he know that a large quantity of mosquitos liked to hang out there as well.

Speaking to Buzzfeed, Lingle said, “All of a sudden I felt like I was being attacked by mosquitoes everywhere on my body, especially on my back.”

“But I didn’t want to move from my spot because I was hidden super well. So I tried fending them off, then I realized there was a complete swarm of mosquitos around me and it got unbearable, so I drove home.”

It seems he should have moved quicker because this photo looks awful and is a painful lesson have learned all because he was trying to win a game.

It reminds us of the time we fell into a pile of nettles at home, but about a zillion gajillion times worse.

We would recommend some kind of bug repellent next time he ventures outside, or at least he should try find a few dock leaves…
