Lives are at steak.
An autopsy technician is urging elderly people to avoid eating steak, saying she’s seen multiple patients who’ve died due to choking on the meat.
Dolly, who is employed at a morgue in Colorado, stated in an interview with Newsweek that choking is alarmingly common as a cause of death.
“You lose the ability to chew,” she mentioned to the publication. “This leads to choking and potentially dying, resulting in a trip to the morgue. I then have the task of extracting it from your esophagus, which is quite unpleasant.”
She also told the Daily Mail: “Eating steak when you’re very young or older can be particularly hazardous. “Please make sure to chew your food well, or perhaps avoid steak entirely.”
Meanwhile, the 32-year-old Colorado resident urged people to avoid getting into altercations, revealing that countless cold corpses have been wheeled into the morgue after a violent spat.
“Do not ever say these words to somebody: ‘What are you gonna do? Stab me?’ or, ‘What are you gonna do? Shoot me?’” she stated.
“They are. Don’t say that. I cannot tell you how many people I have autopsied and those were their last words.”
While old age is the most common cause of death, Dolly dished that her patients have died in all sorts of wild and weird ways.
“Iâve seen everything,” she told the Daily Mail.
Those she’s performed autopsies on include victims of steamrolling and skydiving accidents.
She’s also seen those killed in plane crashes and mining disasters, as well as people who have been decapitated.
