Chris Foster with X-ray and Key
We have all done things we shouldn’t have done on account of having one too many wobbly pops - called an old flame, told off an annoying in-law, eaten a whole carton of ice cream. But very few can lay claim to something as stupid as this guy…
Chris Foster was out drinking with his buddies and when his friends realized it was probably time to take Chris home, Chris swallowed his key so he could keep on partying. A bystander attempted to perform the Heimlich manoeuvre, but since the would-be reveller wasn’t choking, it was to no avail. The group of friends then tried to induce vomiting, but that didn’t work, either. They let Chris sleep it off on the couch before taking him to hospital the next day. After an x-ray proved that he had indeed swallowed a 2 inch key, the doctors decided the best course of action would be to let the moron pass it naturally. Chris and his key were reunited 31 hours later.
