I’d like to see the science behind this.

Eating some of a laundry pod does not seem like a quick way to die at all. Something that would take hours or even days as your insides are wrecked or your throat swells shut, preceded by plenty of vomiting and other issues should you manage to swallow the stuff. Quickest way to die from a pod would be to choke on it.

IOW, if you didn’t choke to death from the pod, you’re not dying on camera from ingesting some of it.
