ELI5:Why are we always told to make sure someone doesn't swallow their tongue when they go unconscious or have a seizure, when it isn't actually possible to swallow our tongues?

**Don't do that!!**

That's not state of the art. When someone has a seizure you shouldn't do anything to them. Remove all objects they can hurt themselves with, call emergency and wait. Do not place anything in the mouth (or attempt to, especially not your fingers) and do not restrict the person's movements.
