Souls may be briefly dislodged during sneezing, while your soul is swirling around in the snot spray, your mortal remains are especially vulnerable to predation by satan. That's why we (usually) say "Bless you" immediately following a sneeze as the individual may be in terrible peril until their soul is fully re-inhaled.
Animals, not being sons of Adam cannot and do not have souls. Assuming, or asserting they do is VILE BLASPHEMY; your soul can and will be tormented in Hell as a result of such an awful transgression upon your demise, and the torment will be infinitely painful and of infinite duration.
If you drown, the bubbles seen coming up out of the water are the air in your lungs, and your soul. If you survive, you will need to be immediately re-integrated with your soul.
Also, several people sneezing simultaneously in a confined space are in no danger of soul swapping, they don't work that way. If you want to worry about it, however, it wouldn't hurt.
You've made a mistake in your etymology. It is the spirit which you are talking about, which means "breath" a la "inspire" and "respiration." It is the breath that God breathed into man. The soul is different than the spirit.
