Stayin' Alive

This morning I was watching Today Show and there was a story about a man who saved another man's life by humming Staying Alive. It seems that the 100 beats per minute in the song are the perfect beat to do CPR without doing the breathing. The gentleman saw Matt Lauer do the demo last year and remembered.

A doctor was part of the interview and was questioned about this technique. He was asked if it was safe? He said that technically, the person is dead so it can't hurt. LOL

The full article about doing CPR is here.

And in case you don't know the song, you can watch it:
