Clint Eastwood performed the Heimlich maneuver on Steve John, who was choking on a piece of cheese, and saved his life.

According to the Carmel Pine Cone, the 83-year-old actor said that he looked at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am Director Tour director, who had the "look of panic" in his eyes when he moved over and saved his life, the Huffington Post reported.

John said that he had a few appetizers at the Monterey Conference Center and was looking at the 'Dirty Harry' star when he started to choke.

Eastwood is the chairman of the Monterey Peninsula Foundation which has raised over 100 million dollars for charity.
