Marg and Rob: Mythbusters

The following is a real event which took place in Margaret's bedroom, sometime last summer.  We had just gotten back from doing something epic (naturally) outside and were happily sipping away on slurpees inside to cool off.  

Marg:  Did you know that it's impossible to swallow something while you're upside down?

Rob:  No way, I don't believe that.  You could totally swallow like a grape or something while hanging upside down.  The human body is stronger than gravity. 

Marg:  No, it's true!

Rob:  False!  I'll prove it right now!

[Takes a giant mouthful of slurpee and jumps up on Marg's bed and dangles backward off of it.  Swallows.  Slurpee goes up nose.  Jerks upright, coughs and chokes, spews slurpee gloriously all over Margaret's bed.]


Myth:  It is impossible to swallow something while upside down.  PROVED!
