Tragic Comedies, Why Some People Die and Others Don’t After Accidents

from Roy on Rescue

Ever wonder why some people die after an accident that should have never killed them, while others survive accidents that you know should have resulted in death?  So does Roy Shaw, EMT-Paramedic, and in this video blog Roy takes a look at how to handle these situations from a rescuer standpoint and how to prepare ourselves in case an emergency does arise.  Roy believes that when it comes to providing life saving CPR, a pound of prevention is worth a ton of cure!  Roy continues to urge everyone to take a CPR training before an emergency arises, so that you might know what to do in order to give the victim the best chance at survival.  The only thing tragic about CPR is when one takes it for a joke. Watch the second very interesting video which shows a professional skydiver who survives a parachute failure and a 12,000 foot fall and lives to tell about it!  For more on injuries from falling out of bed, click this link.  http://www.disabled-world.com/artman/publish/bedfalls.shtml The post Tragic Comedies, Why Some People Die and Others Don’t After Accidents appeared first on Roy on Rescue.
