No, that's interesting.
Same as well as that thing on mythbusters where they plunge their hands into molten lead. Provided the hand is wet, you can get away with it for half a second.

Makes sense. If you swallowed it, it would only be making contact with a wet surface, or be immersed in liquid. Plausible, and I bet foggy burps would look fucking cool.

We're dealing with variables in what constitutes a "big" or "small" piece here, particularly if there are small or petite people involved.

I don't even want to think about that.
Frostbite of the voicebox. Ouch.

We did actually crush the stuff, so none of it would have been any bigger than say a sugar cube. These issues were probably thought of at the time, we were reasonably sober at the start of the party . . .
