[BREAKING] Michelle Obama reveals she rescued a choking friend at dinner

Michelle Obama recently revealed that she casually saved a friend who was choking on food while they were dining.

The former first lady made the revelation during a conversation with her brother, Craig Robinson, and comedian Kevin Hart on her and Craig's podcast, "IMO," in an episode released Wednesday.

The trio were discussing health issues when Obama brought up the incident.

“I did the Heimlich maneuver on one of my friends at dinner,” she said, to Robinson's astonishment.

Obama explained that he was having dinner with his friend, his daughter Malia Obama and two of Malia's friends.

"We're the same age and you know, you start to have...

trouble swallowing," Obama said.

"Things just stop.

But she had chewed her food; she had told me before that she had an esophageal problem where things got stuck, so I knew that about her." At one point during dinner, the woman stood up and coughed, Obama said.

“I think he coughed something and it got stuck in his throat,” he recalled.

“She was struggling and I said, 'Are you okay?'” To which the woman shook her head.

Obama then stood behind his friend and began performing the Heimlich maneuver.

"I'd never done the Heimlich before and it came off.

It just appeared right away," he said.

Once everything was clear, Obama turned his attention to his daughter and the two friends, who had “left the table” when the incident began.

“I looked at the kids and thought, 'What were you all doing?'” he asked them.

"They said, 'You're right,'" Obama said.

"'We were useless.' They realized that was a mother moment." "That's one you have to bring up at some dinner parties.

It's actually a story," he said.
