A man tried to cut off his own arm in a California restaurant after becoming convinced that he had injected air into his veins.
Michael Lasiter, 33, had been shooting cocaine in a motel room but believed he had accidentally got air in his bloodstream which could lead to death, police said.
He thought cutting off his arm was the only way to save his life so he ran into a nearby Denny's restaurant and grabbed a butter knife from a customer's table.

The air was in his skull, not his veins.

Should have used the fork instead. Poke some holes and let the air out.

Let me get this straight. He is shooting cocaine into his veins and he fears that air bubbles might kill him?????
I guess he doesn’t know that cocaine can kill!

When I read the headline I just thought he was just insane, but it turns out he actually thought this through and had a good reason. Unfortunately he missed a few classes during his training as Surgeon General of Snowglobe Village.

“Should have used the fork instead. Poke some holes and let the air out.”
Actually, someone should have handed him a good sharp butcher knife from the kitchen, and then advised him that the cut must be made at the neck to be effective. One less welfare bum to support...
