A man says he accidentally swallowed his AirPod and found that it still worked after passing through his digestive system: 'The battery was still at 41%'

Ben Hsu reportedly fell asleep while wearing Apple's wireless earbuds and found that he was missing one headphone when he woke up. He then used Apple's tracking feature to find it, which prompts a loose AirPod that's connected and within range to play a sound, the Daily Mail reports.

"I checked under my blanket and looked around but couldn't find it — then I realized the sound was coming from my stomach," he said.

Doctors at the Kaohsiung Municipal Hospital indeed confirmed that the AirPod was in his stomach and was in the process of passing through his digestive system, the report said. Hsu said he found the AirPod the next day after passing it naturally. The earbud was still intact and worked properly after he had cleaned it and let it dry.

"The battery was still at 41%," he said according to the Daily Mail. "It was incredible." He referred to his experience with Apple's AirPods as "magical," the report said.

A doctor who works in the hospital's emergency room said that swallowing the AirPod did not harm Hsu because he was not directly exposed to the device's battery.

Next time, try it with some Kung Pao sauce, buddy.
