Re: is underwater CPR a deathwish?

is underwater CPR a deathwish?

No, please try it then next time you encounter an unconscious freediver underwater and let us know how it all turns out
Seriously, a ridiculous proposition. What you are talking about is not CPR anyway, it's Rescue Breathing. Rescue Breathing is hard enough at the surface- CPR is for all intents impossible anywhere in water and not recommended. Get the guy to the surface, rescue breath if able, and then you can start CPR on a solid surface (land, boat, ice)
Then watch out for the

Depends, is 20 contractions for the weight like 30 pounds if a klingon lifts?

No gym for home, work out seafloor with 30, but is it for 20 like 30 lb when you no lift it to be for vulcan, for 30 lbs instead? or half is 10 for 20 pounds?
