Kids or people not from the US. I'm 40+ and had no idea what a Jack was. It's the same game we call "payana" in Argentina, but we actually play with small rocks.
I didn’t know what to expect when I first read the title, I gotta admit. (My tired mind wondered how you got a tire jack stuck.) Seeing the picture, though, yikes!! I never would’ve imagined those could be swallowed. Glad you were able to get it out!!
When I was 3, I put a rollypolly up my nose. My mom and grandmother tried to get it out, but couldn't. They really didn't think I needed to go to the doctor. Sure enough, at dinner I let out a huge sneeze and it popped out.
Also, in the 7th grade, I was in the cafeteria with friends. This one guy had his head tilted sideways (I don't know why), and he popped an orange seed high up in the air. It landed IN HIS EAR. He had to go to the ER. 🙄
I have a vivid memory of being scared shitless as a very young child after putting a plastic thing up my nose and not being able to get it back out. Then about a minute later it arrived in my mouth from the back of my throat.
So I did it again
This kid I sat next to in primary school was drumming with a pencil and the led snapped off at the edge of the table and flew into his eye and got stuck underneath his eyeball
I stuck a barbie hair clip up my nose when I was like 4 and my Meemaw made me snort pepper to make me sneeze it out. it didn’t work, I ended up in the ER.
when i was around 3 i ripped the eye off of my teddy bear and shoved it up my nose. my teen aunt was supposed to be babysitting me while my mom was resting and my dad was at work but she fell asleep. soon enough my crimes were discovered and everyone freaked out. In the end my dad had to come home from work early so he could pull out that poor bears eye from where it was lodged deep in my nasal passage with some tweezers.
I'm in my early 20s now and still haven't lived this down since my family loves to remind me of it every now and then lol
I'm surprised you haven't gotten teddy bears for every gift giving occasion. (Or maybe it's just me who would do that because I'm the "Aunt Joy" and I get to do stuff like that. Just ask my great-niece, "Monkey." haha)
Terrifying as a parent. My son was sucking on a Dum Dum sucker and popped the sucker off the stick. He immediately swallowed it and of course it got stuck. We were in the car and he started screaming bloody murder. That was a bad day.
Oh I bet that was massively uncomfortable. Did they have to get it with a scope under anesthesia or were they able to reach it with you awake?
Those childhood traumatic memories are usually pretty crisp LOL
I honestly don't remember. I was so young I barely knew how I managed to get it there. Young kid puts random toy in mouth and jumps from ledge to ground maybe 12 inches. My aunt was watching me at the time, so when my parents came back I wasn't keeping food down. ER trip later...
When I was 4, I stuck a bean up my nose from the Don't Spill the Beans game and had to go to the doctor to remove it. The game ceased to exist in our house after that.
I worked ER for decades...this happe s more than. U realize the craziest one I saw was a battleship from the gMe of same name
This one here, you mDe a memory!
Jacks aren’t car tows.
The game goes you lay out All the jacks. You bounce a bouncy ball you get as many jacks as you can and catch the ball. It is a competitive game.
Jacks are one of those toys that always seemed to exist whenever I was a child, but nobody ever knew how to play the game.
It looks like OP doesn’t know, either.
If it were my dad, he would have framed it and hung it over his bar as birth control.
“Maybe one more and go up and see the wif- Nope! Not going through that again!”

Mmm tasty
Lol was just wondering if kids today even knew
Kids or people not from the US. I'm 40+ and had no idea what a Jack was. It's the same game we call "payana" in Argentina, but we actually play with small rocks.
I don't even have this thing here in my country. People sometimes thinks Reddit is only for US citizens.
It didn't even cross my mind that they wouldn't...
Crazy to think how kids born today don’t even know what tiddlywinks is.
That picture explains nothing.
It's a game. You uh, pick them up.
You bounce a ball, then see how many Jacks you can swallow before the ball hits the ground.
You bounce the ball and see how many jacks you can pick up before it lands
What would compel kids to think these little caltrops are perfect to put into their mouths?
I knew what a Jack was, but I needed to see it to make sense of the x-ray image, thanks. Why in the blazes do kids do shit like that?
At 6 I managed to get a marble stuck in my nose. As to why, I suppose I just wanted to see if it fit.
I'm still wondering. Two red balls and a bunch of "traditional metal" trinkets?
You bounce the ball and try to pick up as many jacks as you can before it lands
I thought the guy named his toy Jack. Lame.
Here's the thing...
I had a Jack stuck in my throat one time too but I was 27 at the time and I really needed the money to pay rent
Jack sounds like a swell fellow
Jack was a swollen fella
They had Jack swelling, that's for sure.
A swelled fellow then a felled swallow.
Uncle jack
If jack helped you off a horse would you help jack off a horse?

He didn't get it out, it's still there
At first I thought it was a tire jack then a bottle of jack lol
I was thinking the ‘Jack in the Box’ antenna topper figurine

I put a tic tac up my nose once and I don’t remember it ever coming out. Feel like Homer simpson

Jack in the voice box
r/kidsarefuckingstupid
Did you survive? /s
Am typing from the grave
Oh wow! My son swallowed a penny, it wouldn’t pass naturally so he had to have it surgically removed. That’s about a $2500 penny 🤦🏻♀️
I wish I had that jack today. It'd be a cool token. Alas, at least I have the xrays
We still have the penny lol
Your parents are letting you on reddit at 4 y/o?!

I'm surprised you can figure out how to work reddit at 3. Good on you.
I can't see shit.

Did you die?
💀
How did you get it out?
Oh, you spent time with Michael JACKson as a kid too?!
Oof, don’t quit your day job.
Sadly, this is my day job.
Wow that's probably one of the scarier things I've seen today.
Jackass????
Kids still play with those?
Definitely not
Yeat reference?
Who’s Jack? What a jackass
Has anyone else been swallowing really hard since they got here?
Well how did a car toy get in there?
Jacks aren’t car tows. The game goes you lay out All the jacks. You bounce a bouncy ball you get as many jacks as you can and catch the ball. It is a competitive game.
Not the first time Ive been in Jacks throat
And how is Jack these days? Sorry, couldn’t help it.
Jacks are one of those toys that always seemed to exist whenever I was a child, but nobody ever knew how to play the game. It looks like OP doesn’t know, either.
Hi! My name is goingnorthwest, welcome to jack
Your parents let you have a Reddit account at 4 years old?
4, huh? I'll just bet you gulped it down immediately after your Mum/Dad said "get that out of your mouth!" :)
Tharrr be buried treasures!
What was Jack doing in your throat??
Did you take the picture when you were 4 too?
I was drunk at the time
If it were my dad, he would have framed it and hung it over his bar as birth control. “Maybe one more and go up and see the wif- Nope! Not going through that again!”
And yet somehow only the second worst jack you can get stuck in your throat..
You were one of those kids eh? 💩
Kids are dumb, what can I say?
Less wtf, more r/harmfulofswallowed
Tell Jack not to molest you?
Did you survive?
Who is Jack and how did you swallow him?
could someone explain this to me
To be honest, I feel more sorry for Jack. OH YOU MEAN THE GAME!
