Bills Safety Damar Hamlin Collapses On Field...Officials Administer Emergency CPR - 24 year old NFL player collapses suddenly

1/2/2023 6:22 PM PT​

Horrifying moment during the Bills vs. Bengals game on "Monday Night Football" -- Buffalo safety Damar Hamlin collapsed at the end of a play ... and required CPR in the middle of the field.

The incident happened just minutes into the game's first quarter ... right after Hamlin tackled Tee Higgins to the ground.

The 24-year-old -- a sixth-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft -- appeared to get up from the stop just fine ... but he seemed to lose consciousness as he got to his feet, and crumpled to the ground.

Medical personnel raced onto the field -- and according to the game's announcer, Joe Buck, officials performed CPR on him for several minutes.

He was eventually strapped to a backboard and then loaded onto a stretcher. He was then taken off the field in an ambulance.

Players from both teams were visibly concerned for the defensive back -- Josh Allen buried his face in his hands, while Stefon Diggs had tears running down his face. Reporters on the scene said multiple other players were seen crying.

The league has temporarily suspended play in wake of the injury.

I'll wait for the toxicology report

I smell commotio cordis. The angle and location number 85 struck on his chest lines up with this diagram showing the most likely area of attack for it.

He got up after the hit (which wasn't even that unusual of a hit), took a few steps, and then collapsed dead. Looked more like what happens to the soccer players who collapse from the vaxx. Possibly myocarditis, possibly got a vaxx-derived clot dislodged from something during the game that killed him.

Pharma claims another victim.

Hamlin was treated with an Automated External Defibrillator and had a neck shroud placed around his head. Medical personnel also administered CPR on Hamlin before loading him into an ambulance that had been driven onto the field.

I'm always surprised how slowly some of these medics react.

I'm sorry, but did Damar Hamlin already die? Oh, that's right. The operation isn't even over yet. In fact, it's only critial condition. Does not having a pulse at halftime count as a death? Is that what you're saying? Because if you're saying that I can assure you that you're wrong. Why would you make this topic when the game is still on? Damar Hamlin is still living right now and he is up to date on his COVID boosters for many years now? He took one of the worst hits in the NFL who just happen to collapse because he was feeling a bit light headed. But you know what? They still fucking fine. Damar Hamlin is one of the best safeties in the NFL, the bills went 12-3 last year and would of won the Super Bowl if the quaterback didn't choke. Maybe you should shut the fuck up before you make retarded topics like this. You know why? Because you're going to be embarrassed when Damar Hamlin lives and someone bumps this topic. Oh look at that, the doctors just stepped out of the operating room. Are you a fucking drunk? Are you retarded? Are you autistic? You are a fucking idiot and you should never make a topic on this board again and I'm fucking serious. I almost have a feeling you're the only guy making all these anti- Damar Hamlin topics because you're a faggot hater who doesn't like the man because he'e good. Fuck you, be good at something in YOUR life and then maybe try to troll these fucking teams on the board, like I give a fuck. It's so easy to spot out your threads now, you're a retard. Always doing stupid shit like this. Why don't you try to be a good poster? Just for once? For once in your fucking life try not to make a topic like this. That's just you, you're always right at getting it wrong. Fuck you. You are nothing.

How many concussion have you suffered from being body slammed on tables in the parking lot of Ralph Wilson?

NFL's official statement states he arrived at the hospital in critical condition.

Baring an aortic rupture, if he made it to the hospital with something resembling a heartbeat, he's probably going to live.


Update: endotracheal tube and medically induced coma according to what appears to be a legit source.

I was rewatching videos of the hit and I think that when he got hit in the chest it disrupted the signals to his heart and he just had a heart attack. I'm not a doctor obviously and I don't know shit but that's my guess. Likely the man's dead.

This happens sometimes in high school/college football. It's called commotio cordis. 58% survival rate, better if there's a defibrillator immediately available.

 

[XYZpdq Jr.]

I'd be worried about brain damage.

dude it's handegg they already don't have brains left to damage

 

[Coldgrip]

Isn't intubating basically a sign that the person is near death or doesn't have long?

 

[Bland Crumbs]

Even if they manage to get his ticker back on track, they were administering CPR for 5+ minutes. I'd be worried about brain damage.
EDIT: The most recent update even said he had a pulse again, but wasn't breathing on his own. I don't think the heart's the long-term problem, just the trigger.

Odd you should say that...I was in a bar with an ex cop friend who said the rule is do CPR on site for 30 minutes. Apparently the end result is better. I have not had time to check it but the guy was on the field for 30 minutes.

Like I said I have not had time to check it but this guy is legit and used to have to tell people "Hey the rule is 30 minutes on site".

He collapsed at 8:55 and was taken by ambulance on 9:25. So 30 minutes exactly.

I work in emergency medicine.
It’s comotio cordis. Essentially, the impact lined up at a precise moment in the heart’s natural rhythm, sending him into cardiac arrest.

It is survivable, but the likelihood only decreases with time. Medics can stabilize vitals and control his breathing, but that’s only temporary. This is a full blown form of traumatic cardiac arrest, and the outcome is typically grim.
Absolutely horrific injury. Game 100% needed to be canceled.

The typical rule in emergency medicine is that you work your patient for about 30 minutes to get a pulse back. Pushing meds, CPR, the whole 9 yards. If nothing is achieved, you either call it or transport out to the hospital for them to call it (depends on who you work for). Reaching 30 minutes on call for CPR is a sign that this will likely not end well.

Yeah he was at the far end of that window. Not surprised they got some vital signs back since he is young and robust but the damage is likely not survivable.

Sorry for the double post, but I’ll answer some questions and statements to help as best I can.

He got up after the hit (which wasn't even that unusual of a hit), took a few steps, and then collapsed dead. Looked more like what happens to the soccer players who collapse from the vaxx. Possibly myocarditis, possibly got a vaxx-derived clot dislodged from something during the game that killed him.

While that is possible, and technically can’t be ruled out, it would likely still be comotio cordis. If his heart is inflamed, there’s a bit more tension on the myocardium, and therefore more stress on the heart. Would be easier to get comotio cordis.

Isn't intubating basically a sign that the person is near death or doesn't have long?

No. Intubation is basically just controlling someone’s airway with a tube. People will intubate patients just to get them to shut the fuck up sometimes.

That’s correct. It also depends on who is in charge and if you get a rhythm back. If you get a heart rhythm back, it’s load and apply diesel to the nearest trauma center.

Dr. Peter McCullough just wrote [Steve Kirsch]:

"I watched the play live both as a fan and a cardiologist and I saw blunt neck and chest trauma, a brief recovery after the tackle and then a classic cardiac arrest. I have communicated to one of the most experienced trainers in the world and we agree that it was a cardiac arrest in the setting of a big surge of adrenalin. If Damar Hamlin indeed took one of the COVID-19 vaccines, then subclinical vaccine-induced myocarditis must be considered in the differential diagnosis. We have been told he was successfully defibrillated on the field and has been intubated and is not spontaneously breathing which is consistent with anoxic encephalopathy. The nation prays for his complete recovery."

Hamlin is believed to have suffered cardiac arrest

He collapsed just now. I talked to Dr. Peter McCullough to get his take. Here's what Peter said...

Natasha Richardson went skiing in 2009 and she hit a tree, yet she got up and was walking and talking before she collapsed and died.

 

[The-Mad-Asshatter]

Rare to see a player die on field from it though, but it has apparently happened once before.

It had happened. Chuck Hughs, number 85.

What was interesting is that Chuck's number is the same number of the player that struck Damar Hamlin.

Not too sure these two are comparable. You see, comotio cordis is more of an immediate thing. His heart rhythm essentially stopped on impact and his body just compensated enough for him to move. Richardson likely had some sort of injury that led to cardiac arrest. Your body, when you experience something like a traumatic injury, compensates for some time. Depending on the injury that can be up to multiple hours.
Eventually, everyone dies of cardiac arrest, it just means your heart stopped. Traumatic cardiac arrest is a whole different animal because something so horrific happened that it damaged your heart and it stopped working.
That’s to say if even if it is comotio cordis. Dude could have ruptured his heart, ruptured his aorta, all kinds of things.

I'm pretty sure with her it was a brain injury.
