I think that guy put his hand in the other’s mouth bc he thought he was having a seizure. People often do that to prevent tongue biting.

This is a good time to remind everyone that if you value your fingers, you should NEVER do that.

If you think someone is having a seizure...
...this is what you should do:

- Try & clear the surroundings, so that they don’t thrash into something hard or sharp and cause bodily injury

- As long as the surroundings are clear, gently ease them to one side. This is to help keep the airways open & help them breathe better.
- If you can, place something soft under their head. Like a folded sweater or a pillow.

- Remove any restrictive clothing, like ties. Remove their eyeglasses, if they have one.

- And of course, call the health emergency line or take them to the nearest hospital.
- Do NOT hold the person down & try and stop their movements.

- Do NOT put anything, most especially your own fingers, inside their mouths.

- Don’t give them mouth-to-mouth or CPR. Don’t give them any food or water until they fully wake up and are alert.
