  1. You can die from choking to death on an ice cube.  It may take too long for the ice cube to melt before you can breath.  Even if you are able to clear the ice cube out of the airway, you may still have a laryngospasm which is a constriction of the upper airway not allowing air passage which can be caused by the ice cube causing irritation of the upper airway. So even if you able to clear the ice cube, you may not be able to breath and still die!


  2. I don't think so because the ice would end up melting and it would eventually just disolve... but maybe if it was a big enough piece. so i think it is possible but highly unlikely.  

  3. I think the ice cube would melt before you actually choke to death
