A woman in Hong Kong nearly died after swallowing her toothbrush. Somehow she managed to call for help and was rescued. My question is how do you swallow a toothbrush in the first place!?

The morning brush needs to be done very patiently and slowly.

maybe it was one of those travel size brushes and she was brushing the back of her tongue (oh she would also have to have a big mouth) and she just swallowed? Maybe she was TRYING to swallow the brush, like the people who swallow swords? Either way that's weird.
