This is a question Pointless Experiments

Pavlov's Frog writes: I once spent 20 minutes with my eyes closed to see what it was like being blind. I smashed my knee on the kitchen cupboard, and decided I'd be better off deaf as you can still watch television.

This is a QotW answer In A Level Physics....
...I opted for an experiment of my own, during a lecture on forces of momentum.

I managed to fit an entire packet of Extra Strong Mints in my mouth at once. My mouth was swollen and burning rapidly from the inside out, but I managed to keep them all in. As I was shaking on my chair, beads of sweat forming upon my scalp, it was this moment where my lecturer decided to ask me an open-house question about "which forces would be acting upon the mass". "MMMnnnnnpphhhh!" I managed.

In fairness, when the other students explained what I had did he did congratulate my skills. It took an hour for me to dissolve them and another hour before I could talk properly again.
