Why don't people choke on money


People typically don't choke on money for several reasons: 1. **Size and Shape**: Most currency notes, such as paper bills, are flat and relatively large, making them less likely to be accidentally swallowed. Coins, while smaller, are often rounded, which makes them less likely to get lodged in the throat compared to sharp or irregular objects. 2. **Behavior**: People usually handle money with their hands and don't typically put it in their mouths. The act of choking generally involves objects that are ingested or chewed, which is not common behavior with money. 3. **Material**: Paper currency is made from materials that do not have the same choking hazard as harder, more solid items that can easily obstruct the airway. 4. **Choking Awareness**: Most individuals are aware of the risks associated with choking and are careful when it comes to eating or playing with small objects, helping to minimize the risk of choking on items like coins. While it is technically possible to choke on small coins, it's relatively uncommon due to these factors.
