What would happen if a whale swallows you? The human brain is an intriguing thing. You may be lying in your bed ready for sleep when, all of a sudden, dozens of what-ifs start to pop up in your head. And one day, a terrifying thing may occur to you: could a human survive being swallowed by a whale? For centuries, there have been different stories about people who ended up inside these giant animals. According to some of them, these unfortunate individuals even managed to escape from their live jails. Theoretically, an adult blue whale could accommodate not only you but also your friends and family members. At least, all of you would fit in a whale's mouth. But the question remains if this whale could SWALLOW you?

In a vertical position, its height can be compared with that of a 10-story building. - Despite being so tremendously huge, the blue whales feed on some of the tiniest marine life form called krill. Just one adult whale can eat 8,000 pounds of these shrimp-like animals a day. - But due to such a diet, the esophagus of the blue whale is incredibly thin for such a massive animal: just several inches across. Thus, if you ended up in a blue whale's mouth, the animal wouldn't be able to swallow you. - Although the sperm whale isn't as big as the blue whale, its size is still impressive. Males can reach a length of 60 feet, and females can grow about 40 feet long. - Sperm whales can open their mouths really widely. But even the largest representatives of this species have a relatively narrow throat opening. That's why if a sperm whale swallowed you, you would hardly fit in its esophagus. - Trying to crawl out of a whale's esophagus can be compared with attempting to get out of a tight, wet, and slimy sleeping bag made of foam rubber. - Digestive enzymes, including hydrochloric acid, are incredibly concentrated in the stomach of the whale. That's why if this gastric juice got on the human skin, this would cause severe chemical burns and a person wouldn't survive the shock. - But don't forget that even if you somehow managed to stay alive after these burns, you would still be in a stomach chamber. In total, whales have four of them. It would become the end of the journey for you.
