Despite no prior heart problems and a long history of extensive cycling, Reissig found himself in cardiac arrest, a situation he survived thanks to Ames’s timely intervention. The incident highlights the vital importance of CPR knowledge and the remarkable difference a passing stranger can make in a life-threatening emergency.
