"Hey, Watch This" — A True Story

From the "Oregonian" newspaper, Friday, June 8, a real-life (er, death) example of the classic trailer-trash boast:

Todd Poller, 45, was apparently drinking with friends when he yelled, "Hey, watch this," grabbed a 5-inch perch from the creek and dropped it headfirst into his mouth. The fish became lodged in Poller's throat and he choked to death.
