But while many are amazed by the shape of the green fruits , others are less convinced by the confusing footage.
In Buddhist mythology , a tree known as the Nariphon bears the fruit of young female creatures and is said to grow in the mythical forest called Himaphan.
The story goes that Buddhist God Indra a home in the forest for his wife Vessantara and his two children.
But when Vessantara went out into the forest to collect food, she was in danger of being attacked by terrifying male creatures.
The men would take these fruits back to their homes and after making love to them would sleep for four months, and lose their powers.
According to Thai folklore, after Indra and his wife died, the trees continued to bear fruit.
There are rumoured to be two Nariphon pods in a Buddhist temple near Bangkok.
