This just kept getting sadder and sadder, RIP
Slam down on a chair or countertop if you are choking alone. Make sure you hit your diaphragm. It may save.
What might it save??? The suspension is killing me!
Save your game, then you can reload to before you died.
At a point when you're already choking to death?
Quicksave before every bite. EVERY BITE!
Nature will castigate those who don’t masticate!
Some cash, ambulance is expensive
And do it as hard as you can, you might only have 1 shot at it.
Thanks for the clear instruction.
Incidentally choking alone reads like some kind of euphemism.

Absolutely love the 30s ad before the video
It's wild to me that the Heimlich Maneuver wasn't invented until the 70s
And the guy who invented it didn't ever have to use it for decades afterwards, it was purely theoretical to him.
For those of you who thought, gee who else has…
Ray Ewry (USA) - A track and field athlete who competed in the early 20th century. Ewry is reported to have died in 1937 by choking on food.
It kind of makes a perverse sort of sense. As an athlete (at least of the cyclist sort), you need a huge amount of calories and you also are all about speed. Putting those two together is definitely a risk.
Did he take the jab? -Your one aunt on facebook
How incredibly sad. Reminds me of that one Six Feet Under episode beginning with an identical premise.
