Yeah well the main purpose of resuscitation is to maintain perfusion to the brain. You don't even start with breaths anymore, just get right on the chest and start compressing.
It isn't fun, hopefully you never have to do it.

Which reminds me that an ambulance driver said that too, and added that mouth-to-mouth is strictly a supportive measure, and that the 'blow into his mouth then he coughs up water and immediately wakes up' only happens in movies. So we shouldn't expect to see any immediate 'results', as it were.

Indeed. Always thought that, bet I might even have gotten a bit shaky if things got real. But having spent the last ten years in solitary confinement I tend not to stress it too much

Well you aren't likely gonna bring someone back from the dead with chest compressions. Again, the purpose is to maintain perfusion until you can get the paddles on and shock that heart back into rhythm and/or administer epinephrine.
Really it's never good when someone goes into cardiac or respiratory arrest. Survival rates even with CPR, aren't that great.

Hahaha, you won't believe the commotion this caused when people snapped this pictured (it happened during carnival, and SJWs were quick to say it was racist and interracial adoption shouldn't be allowed)
