      Heimlich question. It seems he was too high on his rib cage? Asking so I’ll do it right if I ever have to.

      Please learn how to treat choking better than this video can teach you. Your back slaps need to be harder, go in for the heel of your hand between their shoulder blades with a good wallop of force while they lean over. Do it multiple times.

      Heimlich is no longer recommended because a) Heimlich was a kook and b) it drives essential organs into the pointy bit at the bottom of your breastbone. If you are going to resort to it, though, do it under the ribs. This one was too high.

      Good on this guy helping, and glad it worked! But it may not, so it’s better to know how to do it properly than to hope substandard techniques will help.
