Netizens hailed three Thai students as heroes after they provided CPR to a man who lost consciousness while walking along a road in northern Thailand.

 

The boys’ teacher, Thida Samerjai, shared the story of their life-saving attempts on June 8 on Facebook three days ago. Thida included pictures of the three students in their school uniforms helping each other in an attempt to save the life of an unconscious man, later identified as Pracha Siriaungkun.

 

Many Thai netizens flooded the comments section with words of admiration and appreciation for the students’ kindness.

The three teenagers are students at Tha Wangpha Pittayakhom School in the northern province of Nan. They were identified as Pichaphop Pathi, Autthakorn Chanthima, and Panomchai Sonla.

CPR is your heart is beating is dangerous.. It can kill someone instead of saving him/her. Cpr may only used when the heart stopped beating

One has to quickly establish two things, heartbeat/pulse and breathing.

Chest compressions for no heartbeat and rescue breaths for no breathing

Whatever the rules of CPR at least someone was there to bring him round and so, another feel good story makes AN seem a better place.
