How to Help Yourself When Choking

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions


Things You'll Need:

Chair

Step 1 Get the nearest chair. A tall kitchen chair or bar stool is the best.

Step 2 Stand behind the chair and lean the chair against your body. The top of the chair needs to be right above your belly button as you would normally place your fist when doing the Heimlich maneuver on someone else.

Step 3 Now, throw yourself or fall over the chair. Continue to do this until the object comes out. Who would have ever known that your kitchen chair might save your life one day.


Tips & Warnings:

Try to remain calm

A taller chair works best.
