Stung
Brett C.

Danny, the stinger going through Frodo's vest is mone of the rare mistakes in the trilogy. He was clearly still wearing it, becuase is was stripped off him in the tower by the orcs, but you cvan see when he has his shirt off that the stinger wound is on his right side just below his collor bone - a circular yellow discolouration. IN the books Shelob actually stings him on tha back of the neck, above the level of the collar of the mithril coat.
