On a school trip when I was 14 we did gorge walking and it involved jumping full body into some freezing cold water at one point. When I jumped in, I emerged and was walking, so the water was chest height but my mouth was sort of frozen and stuck hanging wide open and I could not shut it. I remember trying really hard to shut it and clamp my teeth back together because it was as wide as it could possibly ever go, like a snake eating a deer and the lad I really fancied was talking to me, I cringe even now thinking of poor teenage me talking to a fit boy and being unable to stop looking like 😱
I’ve tried googling but can’t find anything.
What the hell was that?! After about a minute I was able to shut my gob again.
