If you get kidnapped try to leave as much traces of yourself behind as you can. For example leave bits of clothing behind or scratch your arms a lot to leave dead skin behind. This way you increase your chances that a search dog could pick up your sent and find you.
"People having seizures cannot swallow their tongue. Do not put anything in their mouth."
It's not that people actually swallow their tongue, it's that their tongue will rest in the back of their throats restricting their ability to breathe. People have heard this and misunderstood what was actually happening and spread misinformation for decades. So then things like this come out without actually addressing the truth or the root of the phrase. Your tongue isn't going to rip out of your mouth and go down your throat. It can rest in the back of your throat and choke you to death. That's what they are saying when they say "swallow your tongue."
