Copycatting A Book

Interesting story in the Sun Herald that apparently a guy has started to copy the fake choking incidents from Chuck Palahniuk's book 'Choke'. performances in Charlotte and Lee counties by a character dubbed "Choking Man." He stages realistic choking incidents, gets women to perform the Heimlich maneuver on him, then shares his gratitude for the "rescue." It doesn't come out and say it in the article, but I'm guessing that 'his gratitude' is just code for a kiss and some inappropriate touching.

"The Ted Bundy of choking incidents," Palahniuk called him. "I wonder how he ensures, or stacks the deck, so his rescuers will be women?" Indeed.
