Some of you may find this oddly satisfying to watch, for the rest of us, it's just icky!
If you have to be completely honest with yourself, and we always hope you are, do you enjoy fishing things out of your eyes, nose, and other body parts?
Was pimple popping something you found yourself addicted to watching?
If yes, then maybe this will be appealing to you? It is called Mucus Fishing Syndrome - and people are obsessed (or so it seems).

Did you find that appealing? Then TikTok has got you sorted with mucus fishing videos.
It's personally not something that we fancy, but each to their own.
Here's a doctor duet video explaining more. Courtesy of TikTok.

A dermatologist also commented on this practice, saying that it is not recommended for people to do this.
Besides this practice producing more mucus in the eyes, it can also cause irritation and eye infections.
