A father surnamed Tao from Sichuan, China, collapsed after his 4-year-old daughter hugged him from behind and unknowingly cut off the blood flow to his neck for a few seconds. Thankfully, he regained consciousness and rushed to the hospital for a check-up. Tao warned others not to imitate this behavior as it is dangerous. The incident highlighted the importance of not touching the neck area carelessly, especially the carotid sinus, a critical blood vessel that, if blocked, can lead to serious consequences including fainting or even death.
