What Would Happen If I Was Swallowed Whole?

[ivanmoro]

Lets just say that i could somehow be shrunk to a couple of inches tall. What would it be like if i was gently swallowed alive by my girlfriend? How would it feel? How long would it take to reach her stomach? How long could i survive in there? What exactly would happen to me?

Jeez! How weird.

Have you been experimenting?
Obviously you have successfully shrunk your brain already.

You would probably cause an upset stomach and perish in a flood of milk of magnesia

This is a first. People don't usually take over 8 years to question one of my answers!

I've never lost the image of the epiglottis as a hurdle after all this time Prof.

you'd be dissolved in Hydrochloric acid and digested, the remnants of that would go down the Kazi.

o come on boys think BIG
it happened to Jonah so why couldnt it happen to Ivan ?

Erasure and Jimmy Somerville:

Jonah was swallowed by a whale...
He made his home in
that fish's abdomen .....

OK a whale isnt a fish - but we must allow arteests, artistic licence

and what has happened to Jimmy I ask ?
He certainly doesnt have the shelf life of Sir Mick....

[Peter Pedant]

o god - by the time he next asks this question,
it is likely I will be dead and gone

wodda thought

[Mamyalynne]

None of that talk Peter - this is precisely the type of question we need you to stick around for.

[MallyJ]

You probably wouldn't make it past the stomach acid........!

\\\How would it feel?\\

A bit, dark, claustrophobic and you would fight for breath for 4 or 5 mins and then you would die.

\\How long would it take to reach her stomach? \\\

About one minute.

\\How long could i survive in there\\

About one minute.

\\\\ What exactly would happen to me?\\\\

See answers above.

So can your girlfriend swallow gently? That's the first hurdle
