And here's the really neat part. As a frog swallows, its eyes sink through openings in its skull and help force the food down its throat. What prince can do that?
Right at that moment, there's a spoon-shaped flap of cartilage called the epiglottis which acts like a lid and seals the airway off so that the food doesn't end up in the lungs by accident.
Your heart sinks, and you think about everything that will go wrong: you'll be unable to walk, unable to feed yourself, your hands trembling, drooling, unable to swallow.
