yes

you bet!!Choking is choking!! sometimes if I breath or swallow at the same time i act like i'm gonns die!!!....solution,raise your arms,over your head it opend up your throat mucles and makes it easier to catch your breath!!

Would suppose that you could. Choking can happen very quickly, depending on how much air is in your lungs at time of blockage and how actively you struggle. A very cold and very hard ice cube could take a minute to melt away...soft slushy ice of course would melt almost instantly.

There's really only one way to know...

Let us know the results if possible.

It is possibly but not very likely.
