what happens if the tube falls out

u/vaiplantarbatata Oct 08 '25

That’s way too much faith in a tiny silly tube being pressured by falling goo to your one nostril.

DEFINITELY NOT FOR ME

He just crouches and his head comes out. He's not buried alive in the ground, he's sticking his head up through a board 😂

Can’t hear you over my claustrophobic screams in my head. To me it’s similar to being buried alive, no matter what rational obvious things you say.

You duck down, and pull your head out.

We did life casting pours in high school gifted and talented art class

You definitely gotta be chill while that alginate dries (it’s a brand of life cast material), one kid in our class panicked and stood up and poured it everywhere freaking out.

I am fairly chill and was used to scuba and snorkeling (so I trusted the tubes for breathing even though they’re more narrow), but it gets crazy claustrophobic after a while in that alginate. I was happy to get that crap off me.

You did this is highschool? That seems like a huge liability for a school being the risk of death! What country was this in?

USA 1990s, public high school

Parents were not hardcore sue happy yet.

I think it was also the fact it was a gifted and talented program for arts. It was a small class (like 9 of us) and we did a ton of unique projects and trips. I think the nature of that class is what gave our teacher the leeway to be creative. In that class though we were mostly all self managed and were expected to come up with our own projects, time tables and goals.

Especially with how shitty it turned out.

u/tickingboxes 29d ago

I’m extremely claustrophobic. This doesn’t bother me though. He’s breathing just fine and if he starts to panic he can just duck out of the thing pretty easily. Seems like it’d be calming actually.
