In human life we can get into various situations where our lives may be at stake. By this we mean, for example, choking. A person who is choking usually needs help. If there is no one nearby to help in time, a fight for one’s life begins. However, you only need to know a few important things and you can save yourself. Take a look at what can save your life.
Knowledge that will save your life
It is every citizen’s duty to provide first aid to another person. There are plenty of opportunities in the media to find this information and thus save someone’s life. However, few people know what to do in situations when there is no one nearby who could help you directly.
Advice from an experienced rescuer
This was pointed out by Jeff Reman, a firefighter and rescuer who has 22 years of experience. He concluded that many people suffer from a fundamental lack of important information, and therefore he decided to make a short film in which he clearly shows all the important procedures that need to be undertaken in the event that you choke on your own.
If you want to acquire new knowledge and skills, or just refresh those you gained long ago, take a look at the following short video. The author summarizes in it everything essential that you should know in order to be able to give yourself first aid and save yourself. These are truly beneficial pieces of information that are worth far more than any monetary or material possessions. They have the value of life, and that is priceless.
Key points of rescue
The main key points of the entire film are as follows:
If you begin to choke, under no circumstances panic and try to calm yourself as quickly as possible. Mental calmness and composure are very important in this case.
The second important point is body position. Stay on all fours and place your hands calmly on the ground.
The last point is the most important, because by performing it you will release a lot of air from your body, which, for example, will unblock trapped pieces of food. From a bent-over position, you just need to slam yourself hard onto the ground by releasing your hands and landing on your chest. This sudden blow will save your life.
