Near death experience this weekend...

Well, not really, but it was scary nonetheless. I'm a reservist for the Air Force and I was down in Atlanta this weekend doing that. So anyways, I'm at the chow hall eating lunch with one of my buddies and put a nice hunk of roast beef in my mouth (I think it was anyways) and I go to swallow. Once, twice, three times. Low and behold, this chunk of succulent, juicy meat is lodged in my throat and I can't breath. So I look to my buddy, tap on the table to get his attention and let him know I'm choking. He thought I was messing around at first until he realized that of course I was not. He swings around and tries to perform the heimlich and he can't because one, I'm about twice his size, and two, he is squeezing my ribs and not up underneath my ribs. Others realize his efforts are futile so some tall ass dude comes and picks me up and squeezes me a few times; and while this is happening some guy punches me square in the groin. I think he was trying to hit me in the stomach or something to help out somehow, I don't frickin' know. Finally, after about 30+ (more like a minute actually, seemed like forever though) seconds of not being able to breath and causing a huge scene in the chow hall, the meat finally clears from my throat. I'm breathing and sweating all heavily and eventually some EMT guys come in and make sure I'm good to go. Just thought I would share this to teach you all a valuble lesson. Stay away from the mystery meat at the chow hall. It can kill you, literally.
 
Funny thing is, this happened a few years ago when I was by myself. I choked on some chicken (insert joke here) and had to do a self heimlich. I should have done it to myself this time as well. Probably would have been more effective.
 
Yea i've chocked on some stuff pretty badly before too, it is definatly scary as hell. When it happened, I freaked out at first and it took me about 15seconds or so and calm down and try really hard to try and get it up.
 
That 30 seconds is the scariest 30 seconds ever. I'm sure a lot of bodybuilders can relate being that they eat lots of meat. I'm personally pretty damn bad about cutting my food into small pieces and taking my time to chew...I can still remember pops yelling across the table "slow down, its not a race."

Glad to hear you're OK brother

that piece of meat had the work of beelze written all over it. i tried to speed up your choking process by punching you in the nuts but to no avail.

this is what happens when you put a former marine in a air force chow hall, they shovel the food down as if someone is going to steal it.

anyhoo, glad you made it out lil fella. not really but i'll pretend. :whip: :thumbsup:
 
You got punched in the nuts too?

I'm laughing my ass off, but damn - if that ain't a bad day I don't know what is.






Well, I actually can think of one. A beatdown in your home stadium on primetime. :whip:
 
Yeah, the guy insisted that he hit me in the stomach, but it was definately a groin shot. Too bad you weren't there Beelze, I need a big strong guy to perform the heimlich. Those AF guys are pussies.

i've only seen one guy choke and that was in boot camp. The DI came running over and gave him a right uppercut into the gut. he coughed it up then hit the ground, lol.
