Ok real talk here for a minute. If, by any chance, some dufus has put a lightbulb in their month and need help removing it, grab a sturdy cloth towel, pass it into their mouth through the corners and gently wrap the glass part of the lightbulb in the cloth. When you’re done, all corners of the cloth should be hanging outside persons mouth. Their teeth should not touch the glass directly - only through the cloth. This way when the glass breaks, all the pieces will be contained I the cloth for an easy and, if you are careful, harmless removal.
The safest way to crack the bulb once you’ve wrapped it in cloth is to GENTLY tap the bottom jaw - imagine a 4 year-old landing an uppercut. The glass is very thin and cracks easily, - no need for much force.
Of course, better not get into such a situation in the first place. Stay safe, folks!
That is oddly specific knowledge.

Now I’m imagining 4yo boxers and it’s adorable! Thanks for that mental image, genuinely 😂
Note: CFL bulbs contain mercury and so would be worth searching for materials that can contain mercury.
You can also like, dislocate your jaw. That works. Would not recommend doing unless you can already dislocate it on command though.
I want to make a food (maybe chocolate) the exact dimensions of of a lightbulb so I can try this safely. I really think I could take it out.
Use melted sugar, that’d be more authentic!

Yeah, couldn’t remember what it’s called. Thanks!
I think the point is that the fear of not being able to get it out easily would lead your jaw muscles to clench up. So somebody would have to basically trick you into thinking that the imitation is real.
You could try and find an apple that’s about the same size?
There’s LED bulbs of the exact size and shape but with plastic casings
But then if it gets stuck you can’t even break it, you’d just have to live like that.
LED bulbs are low risk. I’m gonna do it.

It was enlightening. Like I got my lips around the base. I pulled it out just fine. Maybe these folks were like deep throating these light bulbs, which honestly I think the porn industry might have influenced these light bulb deep throats.
I think the led bulbs are smaller and have slightly different shape from the glass bulbs

Now I always have this lightbulb in mind when I see guys like this
Let’s do this …For science…
I don’t understand why this is so tempting. It’s clearly dangerous and even says not to do it.
Anyways, my mouth is ever slightly too small for one to accidentally slip in. But I could probably force it and not have the ability to crunch a plastic LED bulb to get it out.
It’s tempting because it sounds like complete and utter bullshit and we think we could prove it wrong.
I mean, I’m not going to actually stick a lightbulb in my mouth, but I’m still convinced it’s bullshit.
OP what have you been smoking?
