Yeeeuuuuukk! For only those with a very strong stomach, here's a properly gross worldwide exclusive clip from Daniel Radcliffe's upcoming movie Jungle. In the scene, we see the former Harry Potter star carving a parasitic worm out of his own forehead with a pen-knife.
The snake that lunges at Yossi as he climbs the tree is a fanged venomous snake. However, the snake that he throws to the ground is a constrictor. After Yossi cuts the worm out of his head, for most of the rest of the movie the cut is no longer there.
In the second week, there was a flood in the area, and Ghinsberg almost drowned. He sank into a bog twice. For the subsequent five days, Ghinsberg had no food but what he found, and his foot began to rot from fungi. According to Ghinsberg, he had hallucinations of a woman with whom he slept each night.
“I actually went and shook a tree and showered myself with them because my feet couldn't carry me anymore and I needed to stand,” he says. “I showered myself with the fire ants and, on the waves of pain, I managed to get up and keep on going.”

When toxoplasma enters the body of intermediate hosts, it acts in a very surprising way. It begins to reproduce asexually and takes control of our immune system, promoting a specific response that causes the parasite to form cysts in different tissues, with a preference for the brain.
Did Daniel Radcliffe lose weight for the Jungle film?
To convincingly portray Ghinsberg's jungle-ravaged and deteriorating body during the ordeal, Radcliffe "really physically transformed himself", producer Gary Hamilton said.

What happened to Marcus's feet in the movie Jungle?
The condition that Marcus suffers from (and later Yossi) that causes him pain in his feet is called Trench Foot. It is a serious condition that is caused by feet being wet for too long which can ultimately cause skin and tissue breakdown, increasing the risk of infection and associated mortality.
“Jungle,” the new adventure/survival film from Australian helmer Greg McClean (“Wolf Creek”), is based on the true-life story of adventurer and executive producer Yossi Ghinsberg, who became lost in the Amazonian jungle for three weeks in 1981.
He survived by his wits, a measure of luck and the sheer will to live, with hunger and loneliness his only companions. He was hallucinating and feverish by the time he was found on the brink of death. His story of survival received international attention, and he became a celebrity among international backpackers.
Kevin ropes in the help of the local boat pilot to search for Yossi, finally discovers his weakened friend, and takes him to Rurrenabaque. The epilogue reveals that Karl lied about the hidden tribes, was known to rope backpackers into dangerous treks, and was wanted by the authorities.
Yossi Ghinsberg has eaten monkey meat. He has felt his body rotting away from hunger and thirst. He stole and ate eggs from nests. This was in 1981 when he was lost in the Amazon rain forest and survived without any rations or implements.
During his time in the jungle, he faced death multiple times. On one occasion, Ghinsberg came face to face with a jaguar in the middle of the night. He managed to fight off the big cat with a lighter and a can of mosquito repellent – a trick he had picked up from a James Bond film.
Marcus and Karl decide to abandon the journey and make the three-day hike back to civilization where they can then return to La Paz. Karl had decided not to get on the raft again, and Marcus joined him as he didn't like how Kevin berated Marcus all through the trek.
Jungle Rot is another slang term for a similar foot immersion condition that was prevalent in the Vietnam War. Basically, the foot, feet or toes affected turn numb and either red or blue from the decreased vascular blood flow.
