Floyd was handcuffed in the back of a cruiser. trying to find out why he was removed from car and placed on the ground. There had to be something big to remove him, hoping someone here has answer. Tried a google search but it was all conjecture.

Thank you. I had heard he requested to be on the ground and that is what it sounded like to me. I really don't see any better way to handle this. The meth masked the opiates so I would not have wanted to Narcan him. Got a feeling some cities will born, you cant convict on this. mark my words he will be tried for civil rights violation at the federal level.
He was removed from the car because he stated he couldn't breath, he was placed on the ground to slow his heart rate. He kept resisting, so they restrained him. On cop on his feet, one on his posterior, and one on his high shoulders. The one on his high shoulders was the only white guy there, and the popular civilian (for lack of a better term, not because cops are military) video makes it look like he was on his neck.
This day and age, I wouldn't doubt this.
He was pushed into from behind and pulled into it from the opposite side. He struggled and squirmed out the other side. He was never secured in it. I can't find the video.

In fact, breathing is primarily abdominal. Deep breathing is more thoracic (chest-based) in females but more abdominal in males. In other words, even if the chest is restricted, we can survive with abdominal breathing."
