What do you do if you see someone choking?

you perform the heimlich remover. You wrap your arms around the person so your torso and stomach is against their back and your hands are locked together just below the rib cage. You're going to push in and then up in the direction of the ribcage multiple times (its kind of like kneeding). It will make them cough up what their choking on. Who knows? You just might be able to save someone's life


How do you push someone off of you if they're choking you?

If the person is choking you, that means there arms or hands are around your neck. So if that is happening to you, just put your arms between the slot that divides the bully's body from your body, then use all your muscles and stregnth and push the bully off of you. The bully will start flying back and eventually fall and hit their head on something. If you really want them to stop bothering you, just kick them in the private area or the balls and when they bend over from all the pain' push them or start punching them or you can put a bag, sheet, blanket, or their shirt over thier head so they can't see and then you kick and push them in the stomach at the same time and watch how fart they will fly back
