In case you missed it: This was one our most-watched videos of 2017
An eight-year-old boy was left honking with every breath after swallowing a party hooter.
Doctors had to operate to remove the whistle from the boy's throat - with the doctor sharing footage of him online to show parents the danger the popular party feature can pose.
Doctor Gomez Zuviria released the clip, which was shot in a hospital's emergency room in the north-western Argentine province of Tucuman.
