ecdysteroids have a lot of effects in humans, but it's probably an acute immune response or an air bubble triggering an infarction. Tick bite spit have glycosylated proteins that are just different enough to trigger a massive immune response to safe proteins.
lepidoptera also have a nasty virus that produces a protein that merges cell walls, rolling, crushing, and then injecting the contents means he had a veritable soup of nasty shit.

fr fr he probably heard about picrel molecule on /fit/ or something and thought he could get swole doing that.

>air bubble
my money is on this.
a 14 y.o. wouldn't know that injecting air could give him an embolism. that's how my friend's brother died as a heroin junkie.

Failed superhero origin story. USAID was making a comic book adaptation of the story which Netflix was then going to adapt as a limited series.
I am going to wait for the musical version of Butter Fly: the dude so Fly he's like Butter. Super powers are long, silky fashion sense; a very long, curled proboscis-like tongue; and a smooth and creamy voice that leaves you breathless.

I wanna thank this boy for doing the lord's work in the field of science. Now we know you shouldn't do that. Do you guys ever think about how everything we know we shouldn't do, we mostly know because somebody (or many people) tried it and died?
Hey I wonder if that hemlock root is tasty. What if I put my peepee in that fire ant nest? Should I put lead in my water pipes? Let's insulate my house with this weird hairy silicate stuff I found in that hole. Lemme lick my radium paintbrush to get it to a fine point for my glow in the dark watch.
These things push society ever forward. F in the chat for these brave scientists boys.
