LED bulbs are low risk. I’m gonna do it.

It was enlightening. Like I got my lips around the base. I pulled it out just fine. Maybe these folks were like deep throating these light bulbs, which honestly I think the porn industry might have influenced these light bulb deep throats.
I hate this so much. This is worse than The Game
DAMMIT
Yw
I’m with the commenter. I hate that someone seeded this in my brain ever.
Come on. Do it, pussy.
You know it goes in easily.
Given its shape it could also fit in other parts of the body but might be hard to remove.
I suppose if you get it stuck elsewhere you could use a socket to screw into the bulb and extract it
That’s…not the worst idea I’ve ever heard…
The worse version doesn’t include unplugging the lamp
I want to make a food (maybe chocolate) the exact dimensions of of a lightbulb so I can try this safely. I really think I could take it out.
Open your mouth all the way. Use your fingers to measure it. Do you really think a lightbulb could fit in there?
Well, given that it could fit in, it could come out the same way. I have a rather large face hole, so I think it could fit. Is the meme meant to be that the lightbulb is too big for most people to even get in?
Now you got us all sticking fingers in our mouth
Use melted sugar, that’d be more authentic!
Sugar glass!
Isn’t it still sharp though?
It’ll soften with your saliva hopefully.
There’s LED bulbs of the exact size and shape but with plastic casings
But then if it gets stuck you can’t even break it, you’d just have to live like that.
Ok real talk here for a minute. If, by any chance, some dufus has put a lightbulb in their month and need help removing it, grab a sturdy cloth towel, pass it into their mouth through the corners and gently wrap the glass part of the lightbulb in the cloth. When you’re done, all corners of the cloth should be hanging outside persons mouth. Their teeth should not touch the glass directly - only through the cloth. This way when the glass breaks, all the pieces will be contained I the cloth for an easy and, if you are careful, harmless removal.
The safest way to crack the bulb once you’ve wrapped it in cloth is to GENTLY tap the bottom jaw - imagine a 4 year-old landing an uppercut. The glass is very thin and cracks easily, - no need for much force.
Of course, better not get into such a situation in the first place. Stay safe, folks!
Now I’m imagining 4yo boxers and it’s adorable! Thanks for that mental image, genuinely 😂
Note: CFL bulbs contain mercury and so would be worth searching for materials that can contain mercury.
You can also like, dislocate your jaw. That works. Would not recommend doing unless you can already dislocate it on command though.
That is oddly specific knowledge.

So… How do you take it out though? Someone else’s help? Why wouldn’t they break it while trying to take it out too? Or is breaking it the only option, as a lesson for your stupidity? Is this a painful/traumatic enough torture method? So many questions 🤔
Just gotta swallow it
Muscle relaxers?
And lots of lube.
Play snake and unhinge your jaw.
I’d guess they would put a kind of thick bag over it and then break it so it can’t hurt the mouth.
What if you meditate or go to sleep or otherwise relax it enough to take it out? That should work if the only thing keeping it in is the involuntary stress/fear response of muscle tension.
Go to sleep? With a lightbulb in your mouth??
Jaws of life.
Let’s do this …For science…
Anyone who’s worked on electronics know the frustration of the “easy to insert, hard as hell to remove” type fasteners that manufacturers insist on using. Basically the exact same principle as this. Plenty of plastic casing fasteners and super tiny and delicate connectors are built like that. If something goes wrong during disassembly, at best you’ll have an unsightly crack or blemish on the casing, at worst you rip an internal connector and its socket right off the circuit board along with some traces, destroying it. And getting frustrated exponentially increases the chances you’ll break something.
“I’ll just pop off this U.FL antenna connector…and its socket too I guess…”
I’ve accidentally peeled like an inch of copper traces off the PCB too, when the pads are attached strongly enough (or the copper is adhered weakly enough? Not sure which). Way worse feeling than nails on a chalkboard, RIP device.
Now I always have this lightbulb in mind when I see guys like this
OP what have you been smoking?
40w Edison’s
I don’t understand why this is so tempting. It’s clearly dangerous and even says not to do it.
Anyways, my mouth is ever slightly too small for one to accidentally slip in. But I could probably force it and not have the ability to crunch a plastic LED bulb to get it out.
It’s tempting because it sounds like complete and utter bullshit and we think we could prove it wrong.
I mean, I’m not going to actually stick a lightbulb in my mouth, but I’m still convinced it’s bullshit.
This bulb is my bulb it was made for me!
Luckily, all my light bulbs are the (American) football-shaped LED kind and there’s no glass.
Uncle Fester intensifies
The most commonly used A-series light bulb type is an A60 bulb (or its inch-based equivalent, the A19 bulb, which is 60 mm (19⁄8 in or 2+3⁄8 in) wide at its widest point
A circumference of 7.4 inches is larger than most people can put in their mouth without teeth contact
You gotta ease into eating light bulbs, start with the ones people wrap around Christmas trees and work your way up to the big ones.
