He made a tackle and then he stood up but immediately fell straight back. Had to be administered CPR on the field and taken away by ambulance. Never seen anything like it before.
Very scary situationHe made a tackle and then he stood up but immediately fell straight back. Had to be administered CPR on the field and taken away by ambulance. Never seen anything like it before.
Reminded me of Christian Eriksen from Euro's 2020 who played for the Denmark national team. Heart stopped on the field and had to be revived with CPR. They showed the CPR and everything live on worldwide TV as the commentators we're completely oblivious to it. Thankfully made a full recovery and I believe was on their World Cup team.He made a tackle and then he stood up but immediately fell straight back.

Not likely. It’s almost certainly commotio cortis. Erikson was a non diagnosed cardio issue, this was caused by traumaLooked like cardiac arrest like Christian Erikson. I assume the game will not continue tonight.
Yeah that’s the strange thing. I’ve seen hundreds of thousand more violent hits than that.Not the most violent hit, but he did take it right to the chest.
Yeah, I'm constantly amazed at what the human body can go through. The training, endurance, equipment, etc protects so many lives and we just take it for granted. I'm shocked there aren't these types of events all the time. But obviously incredibly grateful.It's easy to forget the level of hitting, size, speed, and violence that's happening on that field, literally every single play. I'm as guilty as anyone else. These guys are putting their lives on the line every game. Unreal. This is a gut shot. Hope he's able to pull through this.

You’re right. If CC is correct it’s about the timing of the hit more then the amount of trauma.Yeah that’s the strange thing. I’ve seen hundreds of thousand more violent hits than that.
I love watching football, but holy hell sometimes I feel guilty about it. I'd be worried about my own kid playing it and yet I pay to watch other people's kids play it. It's a big conflict for me.
What do you mean by timing?You’re right. If CC is correct it’s about the timing of the hit more then the amount of trauma.
Its something that its questionable whether it will even exist a few decades down the road. It'll probably become too much of a liability for a lot of high schools to have it, and as that happens it'll affect things upward.
The hit causes a disruption of the heart rhythm during a very specific part of the cardiac cycle. I’m talking milliseconds.What do you mean by timing?
