Once at a concert, Linnell started choking and Flans came over to give him the heimlich maneuver. He squeezed way too tight and broke all Linnell's ribs. The bones were sticking out of his chest and Linnell died from massive internal hemmhoraging. Then, Flansburgh started choking, too, but he was too fat to do the heimlich maneuver on, so he just died all blue-skinned and puffy.
