There's no way someone survives something as big as a butt plug moving from their arse to their chest at near the speed of sound. You might as well put their internal organs though a juicer and see if they survive.

'speed of sound' is clearly an exaggeration...

MRI machines have some pretty powerful magnets, but they still won't accelerate anything to the speed of sound, let alone an object held reasonably securely and only within the space of ~12 inches.

It's not a particularly large or sharp object; I could see it being pulled through the inside of a chest cavity mostly pushing stuff out of the way. Definitely 'major injuries' though.

I would guess speed of sound is the upper limit of what MRIs can accelerate small metal objects to. So it's easy shorthand for an author who didn't know anything about MRIs before writing the article to reference. obviously something so large and inside a human would not accelerate to those speeds.

Surely "speed of sound" must be an exaggeration, i don't see the object reaching mach 1 and then stopping within such a short distance.

Plus they happened to be in a hospital, so chances of survival are maximized.

weird that they happened to be in a hospital, tho

Yeah, some crazy people want to have their MRIs at a hospital rather than in the woods like you're meant to. Takes all kinds i guess

I want you to realize the human ass can spread up to 7 inches. Oh course this can happen and they survive.
