Pepper Spray Coughing

Man coughing after being sprayed with pepper spray (or bear mace, tear gas perhaps even). Roleplayed/fake/pretend. As a kid, I found a tiny pepper spray spraying can near the door of my grandparent's apartment. This sound is a recreation of what I remember my first reaction was after trying it out (not at myself, just into the room). This was the day I learned the value of Stoßlüften. It wasn't super effective.

This recording was made in response to this pepper spray request.

Hardware: Shure SM7B microphone -> Triton FetHead preamp -> Steinberg UR22C audio interface
Processing: Recorded in Audacity 3.5.1, preamp-related clipping fixed in RX10's de-clip.
