A guy at the call center where I used to work choked on a piece of chicken that he was eating between calls. They did the heimlich on him and he was fine.
The next day we got an office email stating that eating while at work was prohibited except on lunch or break.
I was once at a BBQ restaurant and chocked on a pulled pork sandwich…it was very scary…when it finally came unlogged it flew across the restaurant lol…funny but seriously scary…
I was hopping down the stairs and the campino candy went down the wrong pipe that was really scary. I don’t eat hard candy like that anymore cos I had a second encounter and that just put me off
Once, on a subway sandwich that had a very poorly cooked strip of bacon that found its way halfway down my throat. I was able to calm down and pull it out once I stopped myself from gagging.
I half swallowed a chicken bone when i was 5. My uncle held my feet and turned me upside down and whacked my back. But now I have very sensitive tonsils and I choke a lot, often but a little scares everybody.
