Actually, I've rescued a few people and read about what are considered proper procedures, but my reatest asset in rescues is strength as a swimmer.
It so happens that I have been asked to do CPR once. I refused for a number of obvious reasons... besides the victims injurys, I think he was dead. In any case he was trapped in van.
Since I don't practice CPR, I would rather not do it, but curiously enough, I have long arms and so was taught an unconventionl technique that works quite well. I hope I never need to use it. i have found though, that I have a very good memory when I need it.
Enjoy, seahunt
