For this to happen, he was in one of the best places because he didn't have to wait for the EMS to arrive to receive treatment that can save his life. Thank goodness he wasn't home where he would have had to wait on professional help or by himself.

How does a 24 year old super athlete just collapse in a normal, every day football play. Scary. Praying for him.
Selfish side of me, i only need 6 points from Steffon to win my league and a rather large pot.

I would think there are personnel (MDs, paramedics) who can quickly initiate defibrillation manually.cone said:

I'd doubt it. Plus that ambulance has way better equipment. I've worked EMS at A&M games and they didn't have them, but that was over a decade ago
the game would probably be cancelled if the NFL had the old playoff format...
where the #1 seed and #2 seed both got a bye.
but since only the #1 seed gets a bye...Buffalo needs a win tonight

Vena Cava?
Gotta get the pads off but after that should be quick to shock if it was needed.
I’m told Damar Hamlin has a pulse, but is not breathing on his own. He is being transported to UC.

Needed AED and CPR on the field.
Kolber doing a hell of a job in an impossible situation.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
DJ Hayden injury
Makes me think of both Kevin Everett (also of the Buffalo Bills), and former Dallas Star Rich Peverley. One was a really bad neck injury and instant paralysis. Other was a-fib. Heck, a goalie (Clint Malarchuk) in the late 80s had his neck sliced open by a skate.
As much as these people keep saying unprecedented, that's not true. Serious injuries happen in sports. In the Peverley NJL game they postponed it. In the other two they kept playing.
I think they should likely postpone the game.

First thing I though of.
game should be cancelled
Why is espn not changing to something else for the time being? These 3 don't know what else to say. It's not their faults.

Given the magnitude of this game (home field advantage/only first round bye) the game needs to be played but has too much at stake to play on tonight with what the players just saw
When do you play it though?

I'm pretty sure that the paramedics have one on the ambulance. Would definitely have a monitor/defibrillator on board.
There was a player for Westlake, committed to tu a decade ago who collapsed during a game. Lots of doctors there (including both of his parents). Got CPR, survived. Ended up getting an AICD (implanted defibrillator), and medically retired from the sport. tu honored his scholarship, IIRC. I'm fairly certain that AEDs are now standard sideline equipment here at least

This means it was a heart issue. Didn't JJ just have to shock his heart bc he had severe arithmia which pushed his retirement?
Agreed. This happens all the time in sports. Maybe not Monday Night Football, but it happens all the time
Not sure if the ambulance waiting is good or really bad.
Ambulance for Damar Hamlin is still in the parking lot. Security is working on getting his mother from the stands to ride with him. pic.twitter.com/d6qYwtgs0L

Per the tweet above, AED was used
I don't think it's good
they need to cancel the game, do not make the players go back out there.
ESPN could at least throw a 30 for 30 out there, or I'm sure some basketball game is being played some where.
I'd imagine even if he looked to recover fully they'd still rush him to the hospital to be sure….but have no experience in the emergency medical field

That doesn't make sense.

Local reporter on the scene said he has a pulse but not breathing on his own via Twitter

Because espn doesnt want to be scooped. And what else would they show?

That doesn't make sense.
There are two instances in which it makes sense.
One is that they have him stabilized to the point that they can wait for her.
the game would not be played.
and of course that would be a big advantage for the Chiefs

He's definitely going to the hospital. If they've got a pulse, they got a chance. Question is how long did it take to reestablish that rhythm. After 10 minutes, you start to see brain damage
(Question answered)
Right. My comment was about the ambulance waiting in the parking lot….
Could be waiting for life flight also

They should get someone on set with an above room temperature IQ to replace Booger.
He did fine.pagerman @ work said:The Porkchop Express said:Hubert J. Farnsworth said:
