A doctor in Saudi Arabia was stunned to discover a SpongeBob pendent lodged inside a toddler's trachea.

Dr. Ghofran Ageely, a radiology resident at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, in Jeddah shared these photos of x-rays that revealed the Nickelodeon star smiling, with his tongue sticking out.

"I opened the frontal view and was shocked. 'SpongeBob,' I screamed!!!" Ageely wrote in an email to LiveScience.

I was amazed by the visible details. You can see his freckles, shoes and fingers."

The Spongebob pendent, which belonged to the 16-month-old's sister, was successfully removed and the boy was sent home.

Though SpongeBob was the culprit this time, the most common cause of babies choking is actually food, according to the Mayo Clinic.

I can't help but notice the jaw and teeth in the x-ray, I assume we are seeing both sides of the jaw because the head is tilted?

Good post!

Anybody else sing the spongebob theme song as they looked at these pictures?

"Who lives in your throat, above the place you pee"?

Spongebob Square pants!
