    This would never work in the US. The ambulance bill would be 5x higher than the restaurant bill.

    From the headline, I thought this was twenty fake heart attacks for one meal. That would have been funnier. It’s still pretty funny that he did this at twenty distinct restaurants.

    I’m gonna try doing it how I first read it. Omg, heart attack! Wait I’m better. Oh no, it’s happening again! Whew, false alarm. Holy shit, I’m dying! …

      They didn’t buy the first 19 fake heart attacks, but he really sold it the twentieth time.

    I wish I was that extroverted. I mean that’s 19 free meals and a nickname, what else do you want?

      What does this have to do with introversion vs extroversion? It seems completely unrelated.

      One could easily be an introvert and be an asshole and take advantage of people this way.
