Heart Attack

[IrishCanadian25]

Dude had a heart attack at my gym tonight while I was doing my chest work out. 67 years old and in great shape. Really freaked me out, no lie. I went out for sushi and tripled my raw salmon and red wine intake.

67 and at the gym? Wow

And playing racquetball at a high level. Thankfully he was responsive to questions.

I've never seen someone having a heart attack before.

Was he ok?

EDIT: Nevermind.

I saw an old guy at a bar have a stroke...

Your story makes me want to eat a T-Bone...was that the point of your story? Eat more red meat?

At a bar makes sense. At the gym? He'd jst finished a game of racquetball and was ready for the 2nd game when his chest started to hurt.

Wow. That's just not right.

I have, he didn't survive

I assume that the ambulance was called as soon possible. Did any one perform CPR?

Cops were there litrally in less than 2 minutes. We found asprin for him to thin his blood, too, so that helped. One of the cops was a volunteer paramedic and really went into action.

Sadly, no matter how good of shape your in, or your age, heart attacks can strike without warning. When I was an EMT, I remember getting a call to a 14 year old boy who had a heart attack, he was just playing some basketball after school with his friends and went down, doctors couldn't find any explanation, just his time.

Good to hear about the response time. Kudos for finding the man aspirin, quick thinking.

The heart attack guy?

 

[Loveless]

Many years ago I was walking down the street and this guy, maybe late 40's walked out of the bank to my right and collapsed infront of me with what was a sickening crunch as his face hit the pavement. Guy was dead before he hit the floor, apparently he'd had a brain aneurysm. Thankfully I've forgotten the look on his face

 

[D-Man]

IC, he must have taken a look at how much you were deadlifting and got a heart attack from complete shock.

 

[Cena's Little Helper]

For all you know, he could've been in the gym trying to counterbalance the effects of smoking, red meat, and alcohol.

 

[D-Man]

Or maybe he was on roids. You never know.

 

[Razor]

These are all valid points, ya know.

 

[It's...Baylariat!]

That's crazy. Glad he was ok.
