ASHI CPR and AED - Choking

Choking occurs when an object blocks the passage that allows air in and out of the lungs. Food, especially large pieces, is the most common cause of choking. Rescuers must be able to recognize the difference between a mild blockage and a severe blockage of the airway. A mild blockage can typically be cleared by the victim through a natural coughing reaction.

When a severe blockage occurs, it is impossible to clear the airway through natural means. Help from a bystander is required to save the victims life.

Why would anyone take a bite that big? Makes no sense.
