A Grapeful Incident
It all happened when tensions were running high during a fierce debate over a proposed bill. As both sides fervently argued their points, one unfortunate congressman took a moment to enjoy a snack, a grape to be precise. Little did he know, that seemingly harmless grape would soon turn into a villainous culprit.
With a twist of irony worthy of an '80s action movie, the small grape lodged itself in the congressman's throat, threatening to bring proceedings to a choking halt. In a desperate struggle for air, his face turned a vibrant shade of purple, matching the décor of the chambers.

Channeling his inner Die Hard persona, McClane leaped over desks in a single bound, dodging chairs as if evading a hail of bullets. Time seemed to stand still as he closed in on his choking colleague, ready to deliver a saving maneuver.
As McClane reached his colleague's side, he wasted no time and administered a swift and expertly executed Heimlich maneuver. The grape, defeated by the congressman's heroic efforts, was catapulted across the room like a missile seeking shelter. The entire ordeal lasted mere seconds, but the impact was felt far and wide.

Representative Sally Jensen, praising his heroics, said, "John McClane has proven that action heroes don't just exist in movies. He's a real-life hero, and he saved the day."
An '80s Icon for Modern Times
