Can you imagine coughing that up? Unbroken? Holy shit.

[Fathom Zero]

That's awesome.

[Pub Lover]

You, of course, shout "FREE AT LAST, THOSE ALIEN SCUM COULDN'T KEEP ME DOWN!" as soon as you get your breath back.

[LordSappington]

Oh lawd, what is that, seven centimeters? is that what they use in the metric system? I'd probably puke my guts out if I yakked that up.

Doctor: "So how long have to had asthma?"

Patient: *cough* "My whole life." *cough*

Doctor: "I see. And what are your-"

Patient: *coughcoughcoughcoughCOUGHCOUGHCOUGHCOUGH* *gasp* *choke*

Doctor: "Let me get you some water-"

Patient: *wheeze* *coughcoughcoughgaspahackwheezecoughCOUGHCOUGH*
*gasp* *gurgle* *COUGHCOUGHCOUGHCOUGHHACKSPIT*

*spits out glistening cast of brochiole tree*

Doctor: *in awe* "....Wow."

Patient: "Holy fuck. No wonder I couldn't breathe." :shocked

(Doctor ignores him and gingerly picks it up with tweezers like its a rare and fragile work of art)

Doctor: *to nurse* "Quick, get the camera!"

That would help grease your esophagus to ease that bad boy out.

I think you mean the windpipe. The esophagus isn't connected to your lungs.

[Tadao]

Opps.

[VaporTrailx1]

Well they're sort of connected by the valve in the Laryngopharynx

I still can't get over how amazing that is. I'm saving that picture. All white, branched, and in one whole, glistening piece. They would've had to cough unbelievably hard to get it up in one piece. It must've felt so weird, but it must've been a such a relief at the same time.

I really don't know what it is with me and things like this. Why do I have such a fixation on crusty/gooey things that either grow on or come out of the body? Why does this fascinate me so?

Between this (as well as those awesome earwax videos) and Kitsa's Doo-Doo Bomb story I can't decide which of you two I love more.

[LordSappington]

Imagine crapping something like that out.

[McClain]

Between this and the friggin' ear-igation videos I'm on the cusp of thinking you're an effin' sicko.

[Evil Robot]

You could sell that as a remedy for something in Japan.

[Tadao]

You mean China. The Japanese just want to eat it because it's rare.

[Sacks]

God he must have felt so good afterwards. I'm jealous!

[Otto]

Jeeziz, it looks like an albino ginger root.

[bigtimecow]

I'd probably puke my guts out if I yakked that up.

you already would have pretty much :x

[Kitsa]

It kind of looks like a squid.

I agree...he must have felt so good after coughing that up. I would have skipped out of the place, singing.

I am just as puzzled by my fascination with these subjects as you are. Now I'm wondering if they spat it out whole, or if they felt it rising up against the back of their throat as they coughed and reached into their mouth and grabbed it, not knowing what it really was until they pulled it out. I'm guessing the latter.

Who is that? :confused:
