A Swedish man has successfully played music from inside his stomoch, although we haven't a clue why.
Fredrik Hjelmqvist, owner of a Stockholm hi-fi store, installed the battery-powered music-making device inside a small 3cm-long, 1.5cm diameter plastic capsule before swallowing it.
"It was a very bad sound," Hjelmqvist said.
"But that was not the important thing. I just wanted to show that it worked. We were the first in the world to do this."
The music was heard via a stethoscope connected to an amplifier. After a few hours, the sound of Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive and Village People's YMCA faded as the capsule left the stomach behind.
According to Hjelmkvist: "The operation shouldn't in any case last beyond this weekend, for natural reasons."
