Sea snail hatches from 4-year-old boy’s knee after he scrapes it during camping trip

The parents of a 4-year-old boy from California who fell while on vacation were amazed to discover that a sea snail was growing inside his grazed knee.

Paul Franklin, from Aliso Viejo in Orange County, took a tumble on rocks near the beach during a summer camping trip.

Initially his parents didn't think anything of it, but they became worried after the wound started to swell and become infected.

The youngster's mother, Rachael, was squeezing the sore on his knee three weeks later and couldn't believe it when a sea snail burst out.
