    If you’re at the stage where you need CPR, the odds are not in your favor. It’s not like the movies. Most people do not survive. I hope they got him help fast enough.

    They had to use an AED and do CPR. Not a good sign.

    From what I have been reading, the AED is actually a good sign because if they can’t use an AED you are probably in really bad shape. The AED needs certain heart waves(?) is what I think I read some doctors saying on Reddit.

    Well that's good then. The nine minutes of CPR and not breathing on his own are the two most concerning things to me.

    Hopefully, the doctors are able to figure out what's up and save him. Regardless, he may have played his last game. The way he collapsed it was like his heart just stopped or something.

    That's what it looked like to me too. The faster you throw an AED on someone in cardiac arrest, the better.

    Couple other things I read is that the big concern is that he could be brain dead at this point. 9 minutes of CPR puts him at real risk of losing brain function.

    Also, he took a shot to the chest and apparently this could happen to anyone if you take blunt force trauma to the chest at the wrong moment. If your heart beat is at a certain point and you take a shot it can stop your heart. Someone said people have died from wine corks that hit their chest at the wrong time.

    I was wondering about that. Yeah, nine minutes is a long time.

    Strangely, it didn't look like it was that hard of a shot to the chest, but maybe it was a harder hit than it looked or just the timing. Damn. It could very possibly be that. I mean, he just fell backwards like he just went unconscious.
