“It got stuck but I could still breathe,” Greig Irvine, of Glasgow, told SWNS. “I wanted to make myself sick just so I could get it out. It was weird because it always goes according to plan as it would come out in the toilet later. I could feel it in my chest but I just kept on drinking.”

Irvine said he got nervous hours later and didn’t want to fall asleep over fear that he would die, so he went to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, where doctors ordered an X-ray to spot the coin.

“They put me to sleep and put a camera in my throat and pulled it up,” Irvine, who claims he missed several days of work and felt guilty about taking the place of a patient in need, told SWNS.

(Doctor) "Has the patient passed the coins he swallowed?"
(Nurse) "No, Doctor; no change yet."

I was going through a box of souvenirs the other day, and found a penny in an envelope. I asked my husband why someone had saved this penny, and it turns out that when he was a toddler...

My older brother swallowed a dime when he was young. Little kids will eat almost anything.
