What Would Happen If I Was Shrunk And Eaten

What would happen if I was shrunk and eaten?

Ok, say I was shrunk down to the size of a grain of sand, placed inside someone's sandwich, then eaten by that person. Exactly what would happen to me (assuming I avoid being chewed in the mouth).

Would I survive going down the esophagus? If I did, how long would I make it inside the stomach. How much if any air would there be to breathe? Would I be able to avoid contact with the acid? How long would I survive being in contact with the acid (assuming food stays in the stomach for like six hours, I would guess that I wouldn't immediately be dissolved... but at the size of a grain of sand, who knows).

I'm looking for as detailed an answer as possible. I'm trying to write a story where the main characters get shrunk to about that size and another character unknowingly eats them. I just don't know enough about conditions inside the stomach to be able to write it though, and I can't find enough specific info on google, wikipedia, etc.

What would happen to me if I shrunk, and my friend's girlfriend swallowed me whole?

You would enter her digestive tract as food. The churning action of her stomach muscles would physically break you down. Her stomach would release acids and enzymes to chemically break you down then release a pulped, liquified version of you into her small intestine, pushed along by muscle contractions called peristaltic waves. Chemical digestion and breakdown of your remains would take place in her duodenum where you would be mixed with bile from her gallbladder and digestive juices from her pancreas. Once her small intestine has extracted your nutrients, the remaining waste would proceed to her large intestine before being expelled from her body.You would have a book written about you titled The Freudian Cannibalism Fetish which will become a case study in Psych 101.You would be the subject of an art movie titled Eat the Little Man with a subtext about the consumer society as sexual metaphor, which won’t be nominated for any oscars.She would, if caught, be charged with accessory to suicide and you would appear in court at her trial as DNA evidence (in a bag of faeces).Hollywood would turn the trial into a movie called Eat Me, starring Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot and a bag of poo. Great special effects. Still no oscar.

What would happen if you were shrunk down and eaten?

well if you were chewed you’d die a fast painful death. Let’s just say you got swallowed whole by a girl. most people’s tongues are pressed up against the roofs of their mouths when there jaws are together. so when she put you in her mouth you would be sandwiched between the top of the mouth and her tongue. She would either half to keep her mouth open or keep her lips shut and have her tongue down so you could stand . It would be around 98.6 degrees in her mouth and very slimy wet and squishy. Depending on how long you were in her mouth you would start getting covered in her saliva. when she finally swallows you if she had her tongue on the bottom of her mouth and you were standing on her tongue you would be smashed between her tongue and the roof of here mouth and slide down the length of her tongue and be dragged into the esophagus whereyou would suffocate or if you made it to the stomach your would drown in puke. The swallowing process happens very fast and it would be stressful on your tiny body. Not fun. The only way you could make it to her stomach unharmed is to skip the swallowing process and walk to the back of her throat and climb on the glottis which is the hatch that closes the wind pipe when you swallow. You would have to avoid falling into her lungs as well. She would then half to swallow you and maybe if you had a oxygen tank you could survive in her stomach for awhile but slowly be burned by acid and die. But if you were in a glass pill with oxygen you would survive and come out unharmed

What would happen if you were shrunk to the size of the characters in 'Honey, I Shrunk The Kids'?

This is a fun question.  If you were shrunk to scale to that size, there would many fun and interesting changes that the movie missed. First, moving through air would feel like swimming.  You're now at a scale where dust and air molecules are big enough to push you around.  You would probably find everything to be incredibly dirty as you watch an endless rain of dust, dandruff, insect poop, and pollen come down on you.  On the plus side, the air resistance would probably be so great you can jump off buildings and land safely.  Your eyes wouldn't be able to see very far as the optics in your eye are now much smaller and light would distort on that scale to prevent a good focus on your cornea.  You would be lucky to see movement and shades of light and dark.  Thankfully, your corneal rod cells would still work well for this.  Hence bugs tend to have compound eyes that see movement well. Similarly, you would start to hear in the ultrasound as your cochlear canal is now tuned to high frequencies.  It would likely be quite noisy as you hear insects communicating with each other.  Since you would also be speaking at ultrasound frequencies, they'd hear you.  Normal human voices wouldn't even register as sound.  You'd feel the vibrations impacting your body, especially if somebody was yelling close to you.You would see tiny holes and crevasses everywhere, including formerly smooth surfaces.  You would be able to climb everywhere and upside down.  Of course, you'd also have lots of company as dust mites and other bugs crawl all around you, looking like rodent and dog sized next to you.Water would be an interesting challenge.  If you don't break the water tension, you can crawl on water.   But if you do break the water tension, getting out would be like climbing out of molasses.  You would carry and drink your water supply in droplets the size of your head like an astronaut in space.

What would happen if I shrunk and my girlfriend stepped on me?

There are different things to be taken to account. Did you shrink on purpose or was it a freak accident. If it was on purpose than you’d have gotten prepared better (like choose where to get shrunk, how much and how to get back to your original form). If you thought things thoroughly like I do you’d notify at least a few people of this and have them witness everything. You can’t trust just one person to not kill you and flush your body down the toilet or something. If the situation is unplanned then no one would know where you are and you’d have to be pretty acrobatic to go into certain surfaces to be noticed. Most likely you’d be stepped on. . . If you have a pet than maybe eaten by that.

What would happen to a person if they were shrunk down and swallowed by a man with no stomach acid?

It’s a philosophical question. If they were altruistic, they would tell the man to take digestive enzymes or something that helps him excrete gastric acid. So they would yell from inside, before being suffocated: ‘Please get some betain-HCl capsules on the internet in order to digest me. You can get my discount code, I don’t need it anyway.’ They might also warn him before being swallowed to buy the capsules timely; it takes some days if ordered online.If they were selfish, they would rip and bite the stomach of the man. It’s not a long distance to the heart, so they might be lucky and get revenge before they would suffocate. If you can’t beat the killer, at least it would be some degree of satisfaction to drown in your killer’s blood. You would also go into medical history as the first human parasite. He might even throw you up, and you’d have a story to tell.If they were pristine role model citizens, they would take out their cellphone (hopefully a shrunken one) and call police and an ambulance from inside the stomach. But they would also need to call a lawyer who can work quickly (these are very uncommon) in order to get the legal green light to be cut out of the man. Because it is commonly assumed that legal necessity (the right to self-defense) does not include killing people except if an attack is imminent. If you cut your own way out of the stomach, is is probably legal. But if police, paramedics or doctors need to do it — it’s legally questionable. Should they prefer to sacrifice the swallowing man or the swallowed victim? You would need some patience while the lawyers and medical ethics committee do their work — and some more patience if these entities disagree. Bring a (shrunken) fax machine, it’s good when involved in legal matters.

What would happen if I shrunk and you stepped on me?

Question: What happens if I shrunk and you step on me?You, Presumably: Oh no, I’ve been shrunk! What cruel fate is this? The rest of my life will have to be lived in as someone who is far lesser than average size! Woe! Woe is me! My life is gonna… Oh God no!” *general fleeing and panicked noises*Me: Oh shit, I stepped in something. *lifts shoe to check* It would appear to be some sort of bug that is no longer alive. As I killed it. With my shoe. It has ceased to exist on this mortal lane of consciousness, and went to the bug afterlife I suppose. Time to continue walking as though nothing has troubled me today.Let me know how being dead effects your life, I hear it’s quite drastic.

Would you feel any pleasure if you were shrunk and swallowed alive naked?

It depends upon what was swallowing me.One of my best memories was the first time I went on the slides at Lagoon, a large amusement park near Salt Lake City. I was seven years old and I can still remember mounting the thirty or so steps to the big blue twisty slide.There is no better memory than changing into shorts, climbing a tower barefoot for thirty minutes for a twelve second plunge into warm chlorinated water.Now, as for that recent movie I think it's a pretty dumb premise. Even if it could be done, to shrink down a person to inches, they wouldn't live very long.Mice under the best condition can live between 2–4 years. Under average condition they live 12 months.This is due mostly to their size.See, our massive organs replenish our bodies on a daily basis. They filter out toxins, process food, pump and clean blood, move oxygen and nitrogen. Our brains are massive too, with billions of electrical (neurolitic) pathways firing every second of every day.In order to shrink a person down, they would have to reduce brain capacity by hundreds of percents. Our blood would have to shrink as well, and then it would be very doubtful that our lungs at that size could process our atmosphere.Now there is one other possibility, and that is simulation. Perhaps if people were hooked up to a computer program from a simulated environment and they could be fooled into thinking they had actually been shrunken down.Phagophobia is the fear of swallowing of being eaten. Most people suffering from this affliction have several other phobias related to animals such as sharks, snakes or big cats.There's a book I read as a kid:If you look closely all of the people, called Borrowers, have mouse-like tails and ears. One can surmise from this that they possibly evolved into human shape from mice, which do share many similarities to us. (Arms, legs, grasping hands, head separate from torso.)I wonder though if under those clothes they're furry. Little creatures have fur because they don't produce a lot of heat. That lady just shaves her legs to look like a human.

What happens if I was shrunk and swallowed alive by a human?

It would be a really unpleasant death. Our stomach secretes hydrochloric acid. hydrochloric acid liquefies flesh and bones. It would be a fairly quick but very painful demise in the guy or girls stomach.
