An NYPD officer was credited with saving the life of a man who had been stabbed by using an emptied potato chip bag and some tape to improvise a covering for the man’s wound.
Officer Ronald Kennedy attended a scene on Lenox Avenue and 125th Street in Harlem, where a man had been stabbed in the chest. Kennedy immediately asked someone nearby to get a bag of potato chips and then some tape, and fashioned a covering for the wound ahead of paramedics’ arrival.
The clip posted by Harrison included a note at the end saying a doctor who treated the victim had said Kennedy’s actions saved the man’s life.
I actually remember being taught something similar when I was in the Army... I think they said that if you encounter someone with a sucking chest wound, you can tape an MRE bag (or a similar material) to the injury and it will help stabilize them.
As for the guy that got stabbed, that's what you get when you go to Niggertown.
Of course any item used should be empty and flat like a piece of paper. Taping a full, unopened bag of chips to someone might not help as much.
