How BAD Is It When Something Goes Down the “Wrong Tube”???

1. From South Africa. 3 years ago I swallowed 2 pills for fever without water but 1 went down the wrong pipe. I still have that pill in my throat for whole 3 years, I went to a public hospital for X RAY but they saw nothing. I could go to a private doctor but I don't have any money (broke student/ parents unemployed). I'm certain about it but friends say thats impossible

2. A pill stuck somewhere under the epiglottis for 3 years and counting..please help

3. Absolutely brilliant

4. im too scared to eat rn.

5. Just curious, why do some elderly people need thickened fluids?

6. This guys gonna have a headache tomorrow

7. From now on, am going to be very careful while chewing and swallowing food 😭

8. I can listen to him explain anything

9. these videos r kinda creepy after watching Dahmer on netflix

10. Wonderful!

11. Quick question: if a piece of food does fall "all the way down" and coughing won't remove it but it also isn't large enough to block your airways, how is it removed? Is it a surgery?

12. I am now terrified of eating.

13. My SO spent a week on a ventilator due to epiglottitis (an infection of the epiglottis). Scary important.

14. Supposedly we kinda messed up evolutionarily with having the two tubes located so close together, apparently dolphins & whales figured it out they can eat and breath at the same time 🐳

15. thanks, now my paranoid health obsessed chronically anxious ass will have problems anytime i eat or drink. thanks. like a lot.

16. REQUEST PLEEEEEZE!! Can’t get this episode out of my mind. Can you please do a segment about spastic esophagus? Is it the flap that is not moving right or is it the soft palettes mistake? When the paristolic wave just kinda freezes for a few seconds, what is going on? This happens before food has entered the wrong tube, but it feels like it’s about to.

17. I sipped my coffee so carefully while watching this video

18. Me tryna figure out how my kid chugs her sippy cup while breathing in through her snotty nose for like 10 minutes straight

19. Anyone wondering who these people were when alive? And the people in the background also?…

20. bro i’m enjoying this but in skl i hate it

21. Is it weird for me to think that he meant the other tube. If you know what i mean

22. These guys come up with such fascinating, every day topics! That’s why I love them so much. Please continue forever!

23. It’s been several times me taking my med pills ; it went down the wrong pipe. After I coughed ; the pill moved back up in my mouth. I re swallowed it. For some reason it still felt like it was still in my trachea for 20 mins. I just want to know if I should be worried some of it made it down to my lungs.

24. 9:20
    Children: did he die of smoking?
    His lungs are black

    Me: I don’t know

25. I can answer this video for you. First off she’s probably wanted you to try the wrong tube anyways. You’ll have to go slowly but it’s much tighter.

26. I thought this was about something else.

27. kinda crazy you actually have some random guys head to show on youtube

28. The human body is amazing, makes me wonder is there a creator or just natural selection

29. falls asleep first at the sleepover
    this guy

30. Very good and kind person as well its channel loved it..

31. Such a cool guy. I want a friend like this.

32. Sometimes for no reason i'll think to much when eating and this thing f*cks up.

33. You guys are awesome 😎

34. Anybody else sometimes just wanna be able to pop off your head, pop it in half, pull out boogers that make it impossible to breathe, and put it back on..? Am I weird for that..?

35. So this proves there is no god , what crazy person would make 2 major requirements like eating and breathing to be the same tube…and that 1 going into the other can kill you. I guess we are lucky it wasn't throat and poop chute combined lol

36. What changes in the elderly that they choke more often and it helps to swallow when facing downwards?

37. But something has to digest the unwanted shit in your lungs? I have accidentally inhaled so many flies and mosquitos while cycling that I should be dead by now.

38. JAMES the Master of microorganisms 😭😂

39. I aspirated last Friday an it sucked

40. One time I was chewing gum and started laughing , and it went down the airway, and my instincts caught it in my throat and I coughed it up. I was so happy it didn’t end up in my lungs

41. Can you do a video on what is happening to our bodies when we cough up phlegm. What produces the phlegm and where does it cough up from. Is it coming out your lungs. Its interests me that there is so much of it when after we wake up etc. Why?

42. I already knew why but I watched anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️

43. I got a question I have swallowed food down the wrong pipe but never coughed it up and never choked neither.

44. "what should me name this video?"

    "How about "How bad is it when something goes down the wrong hole"?"

    "Nah sounds wrong"

    "Then what about"How bad is it when something goes down the wrong tube"?"

    "Alright that might work"

45. coughed on my spit while watching the epiglottis, tried being conscious of the flow of my breath while i inhaled, accidentally swallowed some spit that was laying around

46. Can you explain why "swallowing too hard" hurts so much? I experience this sensation frequently, even when I've only had a small sip (and almost always happens with soda or juice). Why does a small sip cause so much pain in the chest as it moves down towards the stomach? How does one prevent it? I've always been curious about what causes this and why/how it hurts so much.
