    how could you get one of those big things in your mouth ?

    Yes, if you should accidentally swallow it then there's potential for the life saver getting lodged in the windpipe and blocking the flow of oxygen.

  • 1 decade ago

    Yes, you can, if you can't breathe.

    I remember that a classmate of mine (in third grade) choked on a life saver and he couldn't breathe.

    Yea so make sure you swallow it wide ways so you can breathe through that little whole. Also do this with doughnuts and tires
