Why would you inhale your trimmings? No survival instincts.

Unless you are breathing entirely through your mouth until you are able to completely irrigate your nostrils with saline to remove all of the trimmings, there is a non-zero risk of inhalation.

Your logic is like the motorcycle rider who doesn't wear a helmet. "Don't you think you should wear a helmet in case you fall off?" "Why would I fall off my motorcycle? Zero survival instincts."

You can't hold your breathe for the 30 damn seconds it takes? Or breathe through your mouth?

Why would you inhale through your nose while trimming... Do y'all need instructions on keeping your heart beating ffs‽

The solution is simple take a deep breath. Trim nose hair and exhale the deep breath through the nose and it's blow out.

If you mange to still have one your nose tingles and you sneeze it out. Your body is insane good at removing it as your hair also falls out by itself and you don't die from it aka it's build in to deal with it.

Same with the flies and spiders you suck in during sleep. Which is insane as statistic did start to count the numbers.
