In an interview with ET Online, Sorrentino emphasized the point that choking can occur suddenly. "It literally happens so fast, in the blink of an eye," he cautioned fellow carers. He is appreciative that the Ring camera recorded the incident so he could draw lessons from it. "I'm glad I have the video to see exactly what happened so I can learn from it and make sure it never happens again," Sorrentino stated. He wants to use his public disclosure of the tragic event to urge other parents to exercise additional caution so that no other family has to endure the same terrifying ordeal.

What appeared to be a routine dinner quickly became Mike Sorrentino's greatest nightmare come true. Fortunately, he was able to save his small son from a possibly fatal choking mishap by acting calmly and applying the appropriate first aid. Sorrentino hopes that by publishing the terrifying Ring camera footage and telling his experience, he will act as a warning to all parents. Since choking occurs so quickly and silently, teaching newborn CPR and raising awareness of the risks could help keep other kids safe. Despite the extremely traumatic situation, Sorrentino finds comfort in the knowledge that his son is safe and hopes that even one family won't experience the same fear as a result of his story.
