10 Video Game Plagues That Would Destroy The World

5. Bloaty Head - Theme Hospital

While we often remark people as being big headed, it’s not often that the statement is stapled to someone with a literal big head. Theme Hospital took that famous saying and turned it into a real life disease.

Contracted by sniffing cheese and drinking un-purified rainwater, the victim’s head expands to abnormally large levels, causing major discomfort.

Still, despite all of this, it’s hilarious to witness.

While it’s funny to watch, it’s probably a completely different story to possess the same set of symptoms. I imagine even the simplest of tasks such as walking through a door are made borderline impossible without a canister of grease.

The cure is just as unpleasant, which involves the patients head being popped and reinflated like a balloon to the correct size.

Fascinating to watch, but probably not how you want to spend your evening after delightfully sniffing away at your cheese collection.
