A 51-year-old man in Surrey, England sneezed out an old toy that his mother had worried he had swallowed over 43 years ago.<\/p>\n

The man, Steve Easton, says he had a terrible sneezing fit and eventually noticed that the top of a rubber dart had been ejected from his nose.<\/p>\n

When he told his mother about the incident, she instantly knew what happened. Apparently when Easton was 7 or 8 years old, Mrs. Easton took him to the doctor for an x-ray, as she believed he had swallowed the dart in question.<\/p>\n

She states, “I don’t know what he did – you know what children are – whether he put it in his mouth, but he swallowed it. I was really worried so I took him to hospital and they X-rayed him and checked everything and they couldn’t find it.”<\/p>\n

Mrs. Easton said she worried about that dart for years and that she was just glad it finally made its way out.<\/p>\n

Easton claims, however, that he has been able to smell and blow his nose all throughout his life perfectly fine and that the incident had not changed anything for him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
