If you held your breath, the carbon dioxide levels in your body would rise making it harder and harder for you to maintain holding your breath.
A tracheal or bronchial tube is held open by a cartilage ring to ensure the passage remains open to allow air to flow freely in and out of the lungs.

The current world record for holding one's breath is over 11 minutes, achieved by Stig Severinsen in 2012. Holding one's breath for extended periods should not be attempted without proper training and supervision. It can be dangerous and lead to serious health risks such as hypoxia.
Dogs can typically hold their breath for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. However, this can vary depending on the individual dog's health, fitness level, and breed. It's important to never force a dog to hold their breath as it can be harmful to their health.
The tube is known as the trachea, or windpipe. It serves as a passageway for air to travel in and out of the lungs. The rings of cartilage help keep the trachea open, while the cilia and mucous membrane function to trap and remove any foreign particles or debris from the air before it reaches the lungs.
If you held your breath, the concentration of oxygen in your lungs would gradually decrease as your body continues to consume oxygen for its metabolic processes without replenishing it through breathing. This can lead to hypoxia, a condition where there is insufficient oxygen reaching your tissues.
He was hiding from a scary man and held his breath for so long his lungs burst and he frothed at the mouth...
Your breath can be held without touching it, by using your lungs to control the intake and release of air.
Your own body's 'defence mechanism' forces you to breathe ! Your brain signals your diaphragm to contract - which expands your lungs, making them inflate with air.
The connection between the two layers is held together by surface tension. By interfering with this the lungs will not expand with each breath but they will collapse.

Chickens do not have the ability to hold their breath in the same way humans can. Chickens have a respiratory system that includes air sacs connected to their lungs, allowing for a continuous flow of air in and out of their bodies. They do not have the same voluntary control over their breathing as humans do.
