Can a person survive if he is swallowed by a whale? What happens when you are swallowed by a whale?

Mondo Science Updated on 2024-02-13

There are countless marine creatures hidden in the vast sea, and there may also be species that we have not found, and there is one creature that often roars to the surface, that is, whales, and even a lot of ** can be seen, whales often "jump" with people or boats in the water, but everyone is lucky to avoid the past.

So let's talk about it today, if these people weren't so lucky and were swallowed by whales, would they still be alive? What happens if you are swallowed by a whale?

You may not have seen a whale up close and you can't understand what kind of terrifying existence a whale is, but you must know that the blue whale is the largest creature on the earth, and its tongue alone weighs the same as an elephant.

And its mouth can swallow hundreds of people at a time, this number is about 500 people, but we don't have to worry that this kind of whale will eat us in the short term, because their anatomy, so they can't do it, we have to pay attention to their cousin, the sperm whale.

Before we get into our question, let's get to know the sperm whale. The sperm whale has a huge head that can occupy 1 3 of the body, only the lower jaw has teeth, the body length can reach 18 meters, and the weight can reach 50 tons, making it the largest toothed whale.

And "ambergris" exists in the intestines of sperm whales, and those who know ambergris know that this is a very precious spice and a very valuable traditional Chinese medicine. Sperm whales, on the other hand, are widely distributed in the world's freezing-free seas, and can be found from the equator all the way to the poles.

After being swallowed by such a behemoth, is it still possible for us humans to survive?

Once in 1891, there was information that someone was actually swallowed by a whale and survived, and this is a man.

At that time, several British men were fishing at sea, encountered a whale, and also overturned their boat, although they were rescued after falling into the water, but there was a partner who was swallowed by the whale, after a night of pursuit, everyone finally caught the whale, and also disemboweled, I didn't expect the man who was swallowed into it was still alive, and after **, out of danger of life, but the man's ** became white, and the eyes were blind, which was caused by the whale's stomach acid.

This sounds like the man has been lucky and saved a life, but we take the knowledge we know now, can whale stomach acid only be bleached? If we humans are accidentally swallowed by whales, can we really survive?

Let's take the sperm whale as an example, the teeth in the mouth of the sperm whale are very sharp, and each tooth is about 20cm long, and the large teeth have about 40-50 such teeth, so if you are swallowed by the whale, I think the first thing will be torn by the whale's teeth, and the teeth of the sperm whale are very sensitive, even if it is a small food, it can be torn apart.

Let's assume that we are really lucky enough to avoid a whale's tooth and start descending from the throat, which is dark and muddy, and because of the thin oxygen, you will also feel breathless, and you can also feel the hydrochloric acid eroding your **.

Then you will enter the first of the four stomachs of the whale, and the largest stomach, and you will be in this stomach for a while, and in this tragic process, you will also hear the good news, that is, you will feel the light in this stomach.

This is because there will be some shiny underwater creatures here, like squid that glows with light, and you must know that the sperm whale's favorite food is squid, and all you can do is to feel the light one last time, because soon you will be in the second stomach.

And at this time, the stomach acid in this stomach will corrode every part of your body until you are left with only one skeleton, which is then excreted by the whale.

So in this way, if a person is swallowed by a whale, there is no possibility of survival, so the hero of that story, you can fool everyone in 1891, and now you will be merciless to debunk you.

However, although whales are very lethal, they rarely take the initiative to prey on humans, and even some whales accidentally swallow people, and they will spit out, maybe whales can talk, they may say that I am not interested in you.

Okay, that's all for today's knowledge, like me, remember to follow me in order to see more exciting content!
