What would happen if you swallowed a string with a weight on one end and kept letting more out as it went through your digestive system?

Could it make it all the way through?

EDIT: It's just one weight tied to a string. You have the roll of string in your hand. You swallow the weight and that should hopefully allow it to move through the system.

Major props to my hommie Sheeef. He made Recon possible for me. Long time recovering emails and passwords. And it was his. lol.

Wut? So you're saying the part that goes in your mouth has the weight on it?

Then by adding more weight you'd be stringing it through the the weight.
Ummm ok. Not sure then. More weight will just add more weight. Your body wouldn't be able to digest it though. Your stomach would get screwed up. Pooping would be irregular if you were even able to poop.

Not a smart idea.

Imagine tying that string to a car. Seriously though, I think it would make it all the way through.

And what if you would let that string go through 3 people? Tied to eachother, so that they poop in eachothers mouths, and the string would continue in the other person...

The more I say Chang the more asian it sounds.

If it does eventually go all the way through your digestive system, the real problem arises on how to get it out. It'll end either by pooping it out (ouch) or pull the string carefully like it's surgery.

Sounds like a silly thing to begin with though.

I am the Carpet man they talk about... I jump from star to star, I walk it out.

I feel like the string would dissolve and break in your stomach.

My logic is undeniable.

If it were a good bit of string and fairly resistant to your stomach acid you'd eventually have a piece of string through you, but at that point you've got the possibility of something dangerous happening which is to artificially pull either end.

It's likely it wouldn't feel very pleasant either because the string could get snagged or your digestive system could move faster in one place than another causing it to tighten.

Life?
I have the internet and Doctor Who; i don't need a life.

i assume the string would get dissolved in your stomach and depending what the weight is made of would depend on whether that survives into your poo or not.
