In San Francisco, an Apple AirPod as a Christmas gift was accidentally swallowed by a seven-year-old boy. He was taken to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Georgia and an X-ray image has displayed the device resting peacefully inside the boy's stomach.
Kiara Stroud, the boy's mother was told by the doctors that they will not attempt any procedure as the gadget will pass through on its own after a few days. X-rays showed the wireless headphone was still intact inside the body. There are no reports of the boy suffering any injury or illness after swallowing the AirPod.
At present the boy is at home, and doing fine. This is not the first time someone has swallowed an AirPod. Last year a Taiwanese man accidentally swallowed an AirPod. The headset still had a battery life and was functioning after he passed it.
