I had to be heimlich’ed while eating spaghetti. I was at my friend’s house and she offered me dinner, (she and her family had eaten); we’re talking and I’m chewing..and I thought…swallowing. All of a the sudden I realize the food is not going down, and she asked me if I was OK? And I tried to shake it off and say yeah I’m ok.. trying to sip water and stretch my neck to get this food to go down and by the way, you don’t feel like you have a throat full of food, it’s just you are suddenly aware that you have no swallow reflex. She asked me a few more times if I was OK, and her husband who was a police officer had been listening to us and realized something was wrong because I wasn’t answering. He grabbed me so quickly and started the Heimlich, and after about five compressions (felt like forever) out came so much spaghetti. He absolutely saved my life 🙏🏻
🙏✝️🙏
My mother saved my father’s life by doing the Heimlich maneuver. And dad was in a wheelchair so it was especially hard. Go mom!
Once an Eagle Scout you are an Eagle Scout forever! My son is an Eagle Scout. 42 years old.
I'm a teacher and I've had to do the Heimlich 2 times. Other teachers at school have also had to do it. It's so important to know exactly how to do it. You really are saving a life. I'm sure that person is so thankful he was there and knew what to do. Thanks for sharing!
I was a substitute teacher and a young teen was chocking on a hard candy and I grabbed him the Heimlich maneuver from behind and that candy flew so far out of his mouth!! I will never forget that feeling.
I had a near death experience when choking on food, my spirit left my body & watched the whole scene from above, & was saved by being heimliched. Life changing experience 15 years ago. God bless your husband. Give him a BIG hug & kiss with gratitude from me. Superhero Henry. He gets double desert tonight.
Side but important note- I loved that hoda said that the two most important men in her life are incredible. That’s under recognized 🙏🏻♥️
Great job! I was a volunteer EMT for 10 years in our old home town, a long, long time ago , when our kids were young (I actually took the course because of being a Mom to little ones)....so I have used the Heimlick successfully many times. I used it on my cousin at a wedding reception, also at a restaurant, I've used it on our kids when they were young, I've used it on myself against the back of a chair more than once, and my husband has used it on me, too. I cannot emphasize enough for EVERYONE to take the Red Cross classes to learn CPR and the Heimlich! You never know when you may need to use it, and you may need to save the life of someone you love!
Well done Henry! Well done!
My boyfriend Ronnie had to do that to me in May 2022 during our anniversary dinner at Golden Corral as I choked on steak..Thank God for this man in my life!!
Good job Eagle Scout! 3 of my boys and 1 of my daughters are currently in scouting. Last summer I was a counselor for 3rd graders at church camp. My daughter and her best friend, both scouts, were jr counselors. I choked on a whole grape and Linley the friend, 15 years old moved to help me and perform the Heimlich. None of the other adults in the room knew what to do. She’s an Eagle Scout now and my daughter is not far behind. Choking is a terrifying experience. I’m so thankful she knew how to help. Also, cut grapes for little kids!
Thanks ladies for sharing with us your great show.well I could say there is nothing more precious than saving people life.your husband is the real hero, and this is what we miss in our society now.keep it like this ladies.peace and be smart.
I did this to my mother soooo many times. She choked a lot due to having a stroke and is the most terrifying experience every single time. But sharing this story is so amazing to reminds us that we find angels everywhere if you are spiritual and if not is a learning Lesson to teach our kids on basics survival tools. Thank you 🙏🏼
I love their family. That's fantastic!
I’ve always loved this family, and now another reason. Heroes do exist.
i love this story! we need more of these talks!
The vibes are so different from the KTG years and I love her but Jenna has such a nice calming presence great replacement
Nice to see this video after seeing some other lousy or upsetting videos on UA-cam. Clicked on this to lift my spirits! That is really impressive your dad did it too; incredible!
It's been said a woman choking will probably leave the table, don't leave if you cannot speak make a scene and point to your throat.
Thank you Henry for your quick response to help this patron…
Just be aware that if a person is truly choking, they cannot talk. Watching behavior is the best way to tell what is happening.
Yes. I don't know if Jenna understands that. She made the comment, "many would be embarrassed and get up and leave or go to the bathroom". She said you need to say, "I'm choking!". If you're truly choking, you aren't going to get up and leave! You can't breathe, speak, swallow or cough. I choked once when I was younger....maybe it was in my windpipe rather than my throat since I couldn't breathe. It's a very frightening experience.
I hope that Mrs. Hager realizes what a Gem of a Husband that she has and does not take him for granted...
Open marriages dont count...
God Bless You Henry! I've been in that situation & My Aunt saved me! Many thanks!
My oldest son saved his brother from choking, with the Heimlich maneuver at a family dinner, when they were teenagers. Both Eagle Scouts, who learned the Heimlich maneuver in the Scouts, thank God. It was scary.
Blessings! Proud of him. ❤
Everybody needs a lifevac at home and when you travel. Sometimes the heimlich maneuver doesn't work.....then you need a lifevac. You can use it on yourself and others. It saves lives. Very scary. I'm so happy she survived
yes, lifevac!!
I love Jenna!
My dad saved my life when I choked on a piece of cheese and a marshmallow
I've never had to do the heimlich for a human, but I have had to do it for several dogs. Thank God they all made it. You have only minutes to react to save lives😍
I remember I was with friends at a restaurant and started chocking I was too got embarrassed and walked towards restroom.
Thank goodness
Thank God.
Everybody should know how to do the Heimlich maneuver or at least try.
If you're truly choking, you aren't able to say anything...it requires air to make sound and you aren't getting any air. A choking person is silent. You can also use this info to calm someone who feels like they're choking but is still able to make sounds.
You can actually have a partial blockage of air and still speak. This situation is dangerous as well.
Google Universal Choking Sign. That’s what you’re supposed to do when you’re choking and can’t speak. (Put both your hands around your neck) to show you’re choking.
There will always be a love surplus in our beautiful country in order to save and heal. Beautiful story. Like you were going to cry when you said : " You are my heroe"....You first heroe is Pr Bush.....And he's the second....We're going to make a beautiful movie with that...
I was abt 14 and babysitting and the 3 year old started choking on a hard candy. I saved him but was so scared. Get involved everyone...choking or other emergencies like this aren't spectator sports.
Wow, let's award him the Purple Heart. If it was anyone else, no one would care.
I need to learn the heimlic maneuver
I saved my Mom with the heimlich maneuver...She was choking on a steak tip and when it popped out of her mouth our dog caught it...
So wonderful
My husband did that also he just left the table didn't say a word...we were all just what the h was going on...but he told us he was scared to tell or show anyone he couldn't breath...thank god he was ok....
I still remember my 1st aid training from Boy Scouts. Great job Mr. Hager 👏👏
It's hard to do. Thank goodness it worked.
Pretty cool story!
In my lifetime I've given the heimlich maneuver to my dad, a 5 year old and my mum. We've been lucky. They all lived. Please everybody, buy a life vac. The heimlich maneuver doesn't always work
Great for henry
My husband saved my life today. I laughed really hard while I had food in my mouth and when I gasped for air from laughing all of the food went to my throat and got stuck, my husband heimliched me and it worked on the 2nd compression. I have never been so scared in my life. I don’t ever want to eat again.
Great for jenna bush husband
I performed the Heimlich maneuver on my mother-in-law. And, yes I am an Eagle Scout. There are indeed a lot of great things taught in Scouting to boys and girls that leave them with positive memories and skills for a lifetime. And, I am married to a Heart of Va Council Boy Scout employee.
This summer in popular hotel chain restaurant sitting with nurse friend I choked its traumatic omg
Bravo !
Had to use it on my son in a restaurant. Not one person helped me just looked on.
I had breakfast with Dr. Heimlich in my late 20s and he hit on me!! and he was quite a bit older. Funny thing was not long before I had been sick in bed watching him do a demo on a show with a woman in a bikini (it was when he first came out with it) so I recognized him but couldn't remember why.
Can Jenna explain what her necklace means?
Jenna just looks so good these days, she glows with happiness.
Not a fan of Hoda at all but Jenna really exudes caring and is a good listener whereas Hoda interrupts ppl.
And way to go to Jennas husband!
🙄
it gets into your blood and become part of you. I got my eagle in 1987. congrats and welcome to the 4 percent club
And, like, Jenna is, like, so proud of, like, her hubs, because, like, he’s a hero, like, she really, like, likes him!
So well-spoken.
Like, really!
Can see how she ended up in the position she’s in.
Like, NOOOT!🤣
Maybe going commando…😳
Jenna I know you mean well and I love you to pieces but when a person is choking they cannot talk. So they have to use the universal sign of choking which is either crossing your neck with your hands or kind of grasping the size of your throat
What a Whopper!!! That is so not true! What is she trying to get?
Why have all these day time talk shows become immidiate family life shows? Hoda.., yeah yeah yeah, ok, ok..., WTF ???
🙏✝️🙏
A,
Really...empty and back to the restaurant, thinking a little higher of ourself...hmmmm
