Airpods, these wireless headphones marketed by Apple, are practical.But beware where they finish.An American had the strange experience last week, accidentally swallowing one of these small devices during his sleep.

When he woke up the next morning, this resident of Massachusetts, named Bradford Gauthier, felt nothing abnormal.It was when he wanted to drink a glass of water that he saw that something was wrong."I had to lean back to let the liquid flow into my throat," he said in a Facebook post.

Shortly after, the father went in search of his airpods, whom he used every evening before bed, and found only one in his room.To joke, his son launched him that he may have swallowed him when he was sleeping.

Which was just a joke was finally true.After a short trip to the emergency room and a radio, Bradford was said by the doctors that he had a headset on the lower part of his esophagus.He then underwent an emergency endoscopy, an operation during which the doctors used a long tube to remove the airpod.

Against all expectations, the audio function of the device still works, the man told NBC, but the microphone is now defective.He still remains lucky, he assured him doctors, explaining that this kind of blocking of the esophagus is often painful or very uncomfortable.

The American said that he had shared his history as a prevention."Be careful when using wireless headphones during your sleep, you never know where they will end!" He concludes his Facebook post.
