"A cyclist has had a “lucky” escape after suffering a cardiac at Velolife cafe, with strangers and the owner rushing to his aid.
Taran Panesar was out on a club ride with fellow members of the Maidenhead and District Cycling Club on Sunday October 27 when he collapsed at the cafe, suffering a cardiac arrest.
A nurse and her partner, who were at the cafe, acted swiftly along with Lee Goodwin the owner of Velolife to administer CPR.
Paramedics then arrived within minutes, using a defibrillator to restart his heart before transferring him to the Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading."
WELL DONE, ALL!

I saved a neighbour earlier this year using CPR. Everyone should
learn how to do it, IMO.
