Skinner's GI Tract


We know from the "Cheers!" shot that ingested substances are visible as they travel down Skinner's esophagus. At what point do they turn invisible?

(I have to assume such a point exists, as Skinner isn't a hentai schoolgirl.)

I would say the stomach, and it happens there because it is a movie

Seriously, his intesties and bladder should be visible all the time, or they would have to say he purged before each mission or something

Not exactly the biggest plot hole in this movie, but still entertaining! Him walking around naked, even in a polar region bothered me the most! Everyone else is bundled up and he's barely shivering nude! lol! ;-)

Probably not until they're digested.

In the Wells novel it was possible to see the Invisible Man's retinas apparently floating in the air, as they had to be able to absorb light for him to see so couldn't be invisible. Although he didn't explain how the invisible eyeballs could focus light onto them.

While we are on the track of the book, Griffin tells that he has to wait for the food to be digested. So the mechanic there would probably be they turn invisible once broken down by the stomach acid.
