My in-laws' greatest death defying act is to eat fish.  they always 
anticipate choking on a stray bone, so as a precaution (and to heighten
the 
thrill of facing down death) they always keep a loaf of white bread on the

table in case they have to push a lodged bone down a close relative's
throat.
