The 14-Year-Old Who Saved a Man's Life at the NBL Grand Final

View descriptionShare
 

A Sydney Kings fan suffered a cardiac arrest during the NBL Grand Final and was saved by St John's Ambulance volunteers, including 14-year-old Charlie Morrison who arrived on scene, started CPR and got a defibrillator on the patient within seconds. Charlie sounds more calm and composed describing the incident than most adults do ordering a coffee. It is his fourth year with St John's and his second cardiac arrest save. Listeners call in with their own hero moments: a woman checked on her elderly neighbour after not hearing from him for two days and found him unconscious on the floor with broken hips, a student choked on chips watching reality TV alone in her dorm, and a man and his now wife jumped into the Figure Eight Pools to save four or five tourists who got washed in. Heroes everywhere.
