I live in a town surrounded by a lot of farms. This does happen on occasion.

So what do you do in this situation that you’ve fallen in to grain?

I imagine you might still be able to breath if you can keep your mouth covered.

Edit: I’m getting downvoted because I’m not familiar with grain suffocation? Ok there. 🙄

Edit again: oh they stopped. Thanks for not being jerks, everyone!

Every once in a while you read a story of someone that survived, it's usually because they had a mask of some sort that filtered enough air through the grain so they could breathe. Like this guy: https://www.agweb.com/news/livestock/pork/descent-hell-farmer-escapes-corn-tomb-death

Sounds horrible!
