LONG BEACH, N.Y., April 23 (UPI) -- A New York state 12-year-old saved the life of a friend using the Heimlich maneuver, which she learned from watching "SpongeBob Square Pants."
Miriam Starobin, 12, said she used the lesson she learned from the popular Nickelodeon cartoon when her friend Allyson Golden, 12, began choking on a piece of gum Tuesday during a music class at Long Beach Middle School, the New York Post reported Friday.
"It was like a flash right in my eyes. I saw in my head Squidward with his clarinet lodged in his throat and then SpongeBob does the Heimlich maneuver and the clarinet comes flying out of his mouth," she said, recounting the plot of the episode that taught her the Heimlich.
"I had no clue what I was doing until it was done," she said.
Teacher Sanford Mauskopf said his view of the incident was blocked by a music stand but he learned of the event when he saw Golden's gum fly through the air.
"Do you realize what you've just done? You've saved Allyson's life. You're a hero," Mauskopf recalled telling the seventh-grader.

SpongeBob is educational.
That's nice
Nice story.
Shouldn't schools be teaching kids heimlich manuever, not a cartoon?
Pretty cool...

Great, she probably got lucky.

Kids should be taught these things in school every now and then to keep the memory fresh. Allot a single day a year to learning lifesaving techniques, and everyone will be better off.
I thought the Heimlich was dangerous?

It is violent, but it beats the alternative.
Heimlich may cause minor damange to the ribs, but I would rather have a cracked rib than die from choking on chewing gum.
Ok well spongebob taught me how to have gay sex. What now.

Have gay sex with your friend to save his life?
Except mindlessly choking the belly of someone doesn't do shit and you actually have to do the right steps to do it right and MAYBE make it work.
Bullshit news.

Retarded typo on my part
The girl who almost choked on the gum is an hero though.
The teacher's name means 'mouse head' in German. Just pointing that out.
It's nice that a life was saved, but how can you choke on a piece of gum? That I don't get.
Just like you choke on anything else. It goes in your mouth and gets stuck in our throat.

If someone saved your life wouldn't you want to suck their dick?
Hehe, that's awesome.
I can see new episodes of spongebob now teaching kids how to do CPR and a heart transplant.
This is why we need to teach kids about CPR.
Lol i learned the Heimlich Maneuver from the Simpsons
:love:
Interesting what spongebob teaches people, I guess I feel safe knowing my sister watches that now.
No matter how many stupid things she says or does.
Serves he right for chewing gum IN CLASS.
