Kentucky man credits Younghoe Koo's embarrassing botched field goal attempt with saving his life

Former NFL star Robert Gallery joins Will Cain to share how Ibogaine helped save his life after years of repeated head trauma issues. Plus, Andrew Perloff debates Bad Bunny’s halftime show and Sam Darnold’s Seahawks redemption story.

One of the worst moments in Younghoe Koo's NFL career last season may have saved a man's life.

At least that's how it seems if you hear Mark Toothaker describe what happened to him when he was home with his wife last December watching Monday Night Football as the New York Giants played the New England Patriots.

In the second quarter of the game, Koo, kicking for the Giants, suffered a terrible, funny, awful, embarrassing moment when he abruptly decided not to follow through on a field goal attempt and the play turned into a Keystone Cops moment on national television.

Perhaps like many fans who witnessed the play, Toothaker began laughing at Koo's expense. But suddenly, unexpectedly, the laughter turned into a crisis when it brought on a violent seizure.

And that led to things, which led to things, which Toothaker believes saved his life.

"(The) kicker saved my life because it could’ve happened any other time," Toothaker told The Associated Press. "I wholeheartedly believe I was in the right spot at the right time, and he was the trigger for that happening. It was a miracle."

Toothaker sees a miracle in Koo's aborted kick and his medical emergency , which he likens to getting "electrocuted" because his wife immediately called 911. When paramedics arrived, they whisked him to the hospital.
