20 years ago, while leisure reading in the chapel hill UNC library, I read the Journal of Forensic Medicine or close to it, and found a case where a man, while fishing, held up his bluegill fish over his head while still hooked. Yelling at a friend, the fish flipped off the hook, and went headfirst into his mouth. He tried to grab the fish, but pushed it further down his throat, with the fins preventing it from being pulled out. Further, further, and further, until he couldn't breathe. The dude died. Probable? What are the odds? Could buster suffer the same fate?
