A woman in the United States swallowed her husband’s AirPod mistakingly as a vitamin pill. Tanna Barker, 52, narrated the incident on her TikTok account, after which the video went viral. Tanna Barker said that the incident happened when she went out for a morning walk with her friend. During this time, she used to take vitamin pills, but that day she was so engrossed in talking with her friend that she swallowed the left part of her husband’s AirPod Pro instead of a pill with water. According to Barker, while swallowing the AirPod, she felt something wrong, but she carelessly swallowed it with water.
Barker realized that the mess was real when, after his friend left, he saw that the vitamin pill was still present in her hand, but a piece of the AirPod was missing. Barker said that as soon as she realized this, her heart was shocked and she was wondering what she did. She hastily left and reached home and narrated the whole story to her husband. The husband advised Barker not to share the accident with anyone, but Barker decided to inform her TikTok friends. The TikToker also approached the doctor in this regard, but the doctor told her that there was nothing to panic and danger.
“I put my vitamin pills in, took a drink, and I was like, man, those are stuck,” she said, adding: “So I guzzled my water, kept on going, said bye to the friend and went to go get my AirPod. And my pills were in my hand. I swallowed my AirPod.”
Following the incident, Barker reached out to numerous doctors and friends for guidance. They all recommended that she let the AirPod pass through her system naturally.
“So I’m gonna go along with what they suggested. I don’t know if anybody has ever done that. It’s embarrassing. But I did it, and we’ll see what happens. I’m going to follow the advice of professionals. There’s a bonus, I still have my right AirPod,” Barker added.
