Terrell Finner posted the photos of himself in “hospital” in the hope that he could skip his midterm Chemistry exam.

A pre-med student at New York City’s Columbia University, US, made a ridiculous attempt to get out of his midterm exams — he faked being in hospital using his Macbook charger and headphones as “convincing” medical tubes

But on closer inspection, it was pretty clear that those were in fact headphones up his nose.

Although reportedly Teller was also inundated with messages telling him how stupid he was from people who weren’t so quick to spot the joke. And Teller found himself a little overwhelmed. But he still found time to post another selfie after being “discharged”, writing, “Gotta have oxygen tho”.
