Guy Swallows Earbuds in Sleep, Become Lodged In Throat

By Wes Styles Feb 8, 2021 | 7:39 AM

Word to the wise — Don’t fall asleep while listening to music with your AirPods.

A Massachusetts man did just that and woke up with them missing. He knew something was wrong when he had trouble drinking water.

An X-ray would show that those missing AirPods were lodged — IN HIS THROAT! He swallowed them while he was sleeping.

Doctors were thankfully able to remove them and the guy is thankful the situation wasn’t worse, like choking on them while he slept.
