NEW YORK, June 19 — It’s like a scene straight out of a Hollywood horror movie.

YouTube user Mngzkhuel was about to eat a banana when they noticed that there was something moving under the skin of the fruit and decided to record it.

Moments later, a cut appeared on the banana’s skin, and a large spider burst out of it, mirroring the chestburster scene from the popular movie franchise ‘Alien’.

The video has gone viral, and has racked up over 4.2 million views at the time of writing.
