Twelve-year-old Miriam Starobin recently saved a friend from choking on gum, with a move she'd seen on SpongeBob SquarePants. Miriam performed the Heimlich maneuver (emergency procedure to clear a choking person's airway) by wrapping her arms around her friend's waist and thrusting. The pressure forced out the gum so the girl could breathe.
