At 5:30 PM on January 13th, 2002, while watching an NFL playoff game between the Miami Dolphins and the Baltimore Ravens, United States President George W. Bush choked on a pretzel and lost consciousness. As he was alone in the room, nobody was there to see him fall off of his couch and attend to him. As a result, President Bush, in a bizarre turn of events, succumbed to asphyxiation and wasn't discovered until the game was over.
