In Motihari, Bihar, a man narrowly escaped a grave situation after swallowing a bunch of keys, two nail cutters, and a knife in a fit of rage. The incident unfolded when his family denied him permission to play Battlegrounds Mobile India, a popular online multiplayer game, following an argument.

In a shocking act of defiance, the man ingested these dangerous items. Though he initially showed no immediate distress, his condition deteriorated a few hours later, prompting his family to rush him to a private hospital in Motihari. An X-ray revealed the foreign objects lodged in his stomach.

Dr. Amit Kumar, a physician at the private hospital, reported to India Today TV, "He had swallowed a bunch of keys, a single key, two nail cutters and a knife after he was not allowed to play video games following an argument. He swallowed all these items in anger. He is now stable and out of danger."

The man underwent a one-and-a-half-hour surgery to remove the items, and he is currently stable and recovering.
