I do not believe that the ice cube would have enough time to melt in the time that it takes you to choke to death. However, being that icecubes are very slippery, I think it would be hard to actually choke on one. I don't remember ever having heard of someone choking to death on an icecube.

In the time it would take for the ice to melt, you'd more than likely be unconscious. I can understand how its logical to think that you could drink warm water to melt it, but if youre choking you cant swallow. So be careful... eat chipped ice instead of chompin cubes...lol :)

I think it is possible if the ice cube is small enough to fit down your throat w/o melting, but large enough where it wont melt fast.

It happened to me!!! I was running around trying to get a cup of hot water... luckily it wasn't huge and I was okay. Also happened with one of those striped round mints - I was waiting tables and choked, the other waiter had to hit me to get it out. Scary!!

I don't think you would choke on one because the ice would melt the outside because of the heat of y9our throat, lubricating it so you can cough it out. I bet it's possible though

yeah, just hope it melts before you stop breathing though. Also, people that like to chew on ice more than likely have an iron deficiency. So now you have to worry about anemia and choking. Sucks to be you.

I choked on ice once when I was little and my dad had to do the Heimlich...so the answer is, Yes!

Vanilla Ice? No. Ice-Cube? Yes.

yes it is. because by the time the ice actually melts it would be to late. the hot water would help though.
