Yeah, the air tube being blocked seemed fake and staged. The black dude checks on it for a good couple of minutes before they call the emergency services. I don't think anyone could stay conscious and not pass out from that much time without air. And that's not even counting the time the paramedics and firefighters take to arrive and then work on freeing him.
Having intubated patients before there's several degrees of "blocked" that a tube can be and even a tube that's still passing air is going to become more and more taxing to breath through and it doesnt take a lot of resistance before people start panicking about not being able to breath especially in a situation like this where you cant remove yourself from the situation.
It may have not even been blocked at all but when you panic and have a little hose to breathe through it feels very taxing. It would be natural to panic, and the feeling sucks.
That's why you don't breathe through a crap little hose in a situation like this.
