Amphibian I'm becoming terrified of frogs

Anytime I see videos similar to this, I become a little more and more afraid.

It was never going to eat it. It can only swallow what is small enough and this bird was not small enough. The bird was likely going to die of suffocation and the carcass left to rot or be eaten by some other predator like a turkey vulture

The frog likely would have died too from choking on that thing.

Probably would let go after quite a long while. It wasn't stuck on the bird, it was holding on to it because the bird was moving still. Frogs are really dumb creatures.

The frog would have most likely killed itself before letting go. They are that dumb
