Glad they postponed the game. I've never seen NFL players look so shook before. They definitely were in no emotional state to keep playing
StabbyMcMurder
Well that's scary
Jayhatesspidersandshit
Hope he and Jeremy Renner get better and RIP to Ken Block.
rogue00ff
Screw the game, I just hope he's OK. Parents were in the stands, too.
NeverEnoughFoxes
Wasn't following the game that close and looked up to see that it was suspended. Now I know why.
kobun253
ESPN says he's in critical condition at the hospital. Means he made it there alive. Shit sucks
DankFerric
CapitalNick
Didn't take long for the smooth brains to start yelling it was because he was vaccinated.
PizzaRollsEqualsLove
It was a horrifying thing to watch. Thoughts and good vibes out for him and his family, I hope he can pull through.
joygamesinteractive
year 2023 and people still saying "thoughts and good vibes" ? yes, your thoughts will cure cancer.
putcleverusernamehere
Took four minutes to get an ambulance on the field. Seems like poor planning
RolandLovecraft
His charity GoFundMe page is blowing up. Give it a looksee. https://www.gofundme.com/f/mxksc-the-chasing-ms-foundation-community-toy-drive
RolandLovecraft
Holy hell. It was at 600+K when I found it. After posting the comment its over 730k.
RolandLovecraft
Its almost at a million and a quarter.
Harryteeters
Is he not making an NFL player salary?

Just click the link ya dink.

ShiroHagen
Seen this happen twice in football(soccer) matches. Fabrice Muamba whilst playing for Bolton Wanderers and Christian Erikson for Denmark. 1/
ShiroHagen
Both players thankfully survived, Erikson even started playing again, though Muamba had to retire. I hope Hamlin is going to be ok, 2/
ShiroHagen
as he got medical help immediately, with luck he will pull through. Muamba was medically dead for an hour, so there is hope. 3/
Madderrs
I keep thinking about how he’s only 24. That’s my daughter’s age.
Assholethecat
My guess is that the hit interrupted his heartbeat and was sent into CA.
HolyCityofMecca
Honestly, the medical staff were on point during this.
Filanwizard
probably why hes alive, lots of high school level play would likely end differently. but at an NFL game they have staff meds and EMTs.
Filanwizard
poke around a stadium on gameday they always have a few ambulances around just in case there is a medical emergency.
ontarioOT
I was reading the YouTube comments, before I remembered why I don't read YT comments - idiots claiming it's bc of the "Fauci Ouchie." FFS.

They'd make that claim if a train hit him.
sorosfieldops
Weird how they never worries about what the actual corona virus can do to your heart.
thaddeuscrunch
Like cause enough damage to make an apparently healthy 24 year old collapse with no warning?
kanybal
Pretty sure these people have blamed the vaccines for every death short of a gunwound since the day they came out
Filanwizard
if they could cook up a conspiracy way the vaccine creates random flying bullets they would blame em for that too.
InDubiousBattle
THE 5G SIGNAL FROM THE VAX MAKES YOU MAGNETIC! I wish /s wasn't necessary...
wadatahmydamie
Look on the bright side: Those people have higher infection and death rates.
PickleRiiiiiiiiiiiiick
Look on the even brighter side: invectermicin increases infertility, as does getting COVID without mitigation (vaccination).
PorneliusHubertII
Makes me smile tp see how small the margins were in republican losses during the midterms and knowing its because they killed their base.
PorneliusHubertII
Fucking morbid outlook i know but they were fucking idiots.
ThickTomato
The gen Z turnout wasn't enough on its own
wadatahmydamie
Yeah, wasn’t that around 36%?
PorneliusHubertII
Genz was helpful but if they hadnt effectively killed their base they may have swung differently l.
TheFeralDog
Watched a youtube video on this and wish I didn't read the comments. People are saying it was because of Covid vaccine..
TheFeralDog
...one guy even said he deserves it for getting the vaccine
SybilCrawley
Jfc those people are a special kind of stupid.

WTF is going on today. Jeremy Renner, Ken Block, now the NFL…
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
Some Final Destination shit I tell ya.

Some idiot somewhere said “2023 is going to be my year!” and 2023 is having none of it. On a serious note though, lots of sad news.
SybilCrawley
Jeremiah Green died too :(

WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO KEN BLOCK
Trimule
Flipped a snowmobile on top of himself fatally.
GeneralPrower
First Schumacher, now this? What is it with "playing in the snow" being so dangerous for racing drivers?
f3n1x187
they want to go fast but Physics and Snow is not having any of that? Also dont forget Jeremy Renner
kickmyballsrealhard
Terrible. I’m pretty sure he died. They wont show the replay anymore and his teammates were openly weeping. They usually only administer 1/

Apparently he is not dead and has a torn aorta

Sorry, not trusting 'Caleb' at this point

Caleb is prolly solid but I dunno his wife’s boyfriend is totes reliable
olivertheoctopus
Linked article says he’s in critical condition at the hospital
Filanwizard
Went to UC Medical, the areas L1 trauma center. Afaik L1 is the worst level to have to go to for an injury.
jansenart
L1 is top trauma. If you have no chance, they bring you to the nearest hospital, not the top one.
bilgetea
I suspect he “died” in the sense of having no vitals for a while.
kickmyballsrealhard
CPR if there is no pulse. 2/2
CrimsonShortOne
They said they were giving him oxygen in the ambulance. So they could have gotten his heart going again
originaljbw
Bingo. Right up there with the paddles, it's what you do when someone is already gone but you have to make it look like you tired
stingraysds
aintnothinbutahounddog28
Well if there was any chance for him, he'll live. Unless you are in a hospital with a doctor at your side there's no one that has had a
aintnothinbutahounddog28
quicker response from top professionals. Most ppl don't have high level drs and EMTs seconds away from them when such an incident occurs
ChaosPersonified
I sincerely hope you are wrong here, but I'm forced to agree. Local news says he has a pulse but not breathing on own. AED was used.
accidie
He may have suffered a hypoxic brain injury. That's what killed my husband. He died November 4th at the age of 37.
aintnothinbutahounddog28
I'm so sorry
chicharrone
They can use a defibrillator to restart the heart...
CaptainShrug
Not really. TV has sold that almost entirely wrong to people. Defib's mostly STOP the heart, hoping an erratic/too fast heart will reset 1
CaptainShrug
or that CPR can be used to restart the heart- though they often have to defib after that, as it'll be restarting in an odd state. 2
accidie
They restarted my husband's heart after he arrested in November. He died anyway. It took too long. Hypoxic brain injury.
newsguycraigevans
I am very sorry for your loss
overlythinky
Defibrillation does not work when the heart is in asystole. Only CPR will do anything. Defib corrects arrhythmia.
Cutlass0516
Renner(?) then Block now Hamlin(?). Jfc
GeneralPrower
Next they're gonna tell us somebody blew Keanu Reeves' head off.

This is tragic. ? entertainment isn’t supposed to end like this.
roadhunter
Maybe don’t watch blood sports for entertainment?
PlsSendMePen15
Entertainment with a known and infamous high risk of permanent injury to those that play it. It might be time to finally end this shit.
roadhunter
Precisely. Start with schools.
PlsSendMePen15
It should be banned for anyone under a certain age, let's be real.
roadhunter
I say it should not ever be funded with tax dollars, so not in public schools. We got the program cancelled at my kid’s private school.
PlsSendMePen15
I know a ban sounds harsh, but kid brains are already sensitive, and Football has enormous brain damage risks. They can play other shit.
don2046don
It is a pretty violent sport, though
soyboicuck
Just saw a tweet from his agent, he has a breathing tube and is stable at the moment. ?
TheRealBunn
Well that is better news than my worst fear. I have been knocked out several times and damn that is scary shit for parents and granparents.

Nothing official, but sounds a lot like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commotio_cordis

The right-wing anti-vax ghouls are already out in force telling everyone it was caused by the Covid vaccine.
Owlsdude
Why are you amplifying their bullshit then?
joechristo
In college a friend open ice checked a guy on the ice and he had to be revived as well. he was on the ice with no pulse, luckily he survived
GorgeousGen
Having seen the video and that delay, I would not surprised at all.
Jiggsawjazz
it's not typically so fast - this is like brain aneurysm area where he went out so quick.
MadamPuddifoot
Commotion cordis drops you like a sack of rocks.
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
It puts you basically into VFIB I think, so yeah, you will drop like a rock.
andyonetime
From what I understand it usually is that fast. Instant arythmia so you’re down pretty fast. It is treatable with quick defib and CPR tho.
whatpassesforclever
Sounds good, but last I heard his heart was beating fine, but he couldn’t breathe on his own. That makes me think more brain related. The 1/
whatpassesforclever
2/ way it sounded is that CPR wasn’t started very quickly, so maybe heart, then hypoxic brain damage, and restarted heart too late.
texscot
Shut up… you have no idea what you’re writing about.
whysomuchdoghair
There are press releases stating the very thing they said.....
whatpassesforclever
I sure hope that’s the case.
SansPants258
That was scary. He just dropped.
Like2Fox
Oof
TheHappyHermit
It was weird how he popped up like it was nothing and then just... dropped
ZippidyDooDa
Just to explain how terrible FIFA is, when a similar thing happened to Christian Eriksen they forced a game to continue. He survived.
YourFellowMan
Yeah, it was nuts
Blargbot
Craziest thing to watch
firehawkcultist
It's like Christian Erickson back from the Eurocup
v23474
and Fabrice Muamba of Bolton Wanderers in 2012.
dudeloveall
Thank you! What's funny to me is he's the one that delivered the hit.
aintnothinbutahounddog28
Yeah I'm gonna try to give you the benefit of the doubt on your use of the word 'funny'. Otherwise you're probably a psychopath
Gaelwyn
Funny in this usage means strange, weird, odd, etc.
PerlerBeads4Dayz
It looks like he was the one hit in the video.
adkoala
He wrapped up the receiver and took him down. I heard a report that the impact at the exact wrong time could've stopped his heart?
newsguycraigevans
Commotio cordis is being tossed around a lot by arm chair doctors on social media
aintnothinbutahounddog28
He was the one going after the ball carrier and tacked him. The other guy, ball carrier, lowered their head and shoulder into him at contact
aintnothinbutahounddog28
So it was 2 guys hitting each other, but the guy that was hurt was the pursuer. Don't get how 'it's funny' in any fucking way to the person
aintnothinbutahounddog28
you responded to
redduke36
Think I just saw someone die on national TV. They do not do CPR on someone who has a pulse.
onemoretimeforluck
You do CPR on anyone not breathing. Pulse included.
QuartzPoker
CPR does work sometimes, though. Especially if it's Commotio Cordis like people suspect.
cmsport2
Latest says he has a pulse, but not breathing on his own and intubated.
TheRealBunn
He is young and fit and so we will hope for the best.

The hit, but I still see it

I had to sign in and confirm my age- that’s why it wasn’t rendering.

Almost lost my kid a week ago, flat lined twice in ICU. He’s just three years older than this kid. Prayers for his full recovery & his mom.
veteranpenguin
I really hope your kid is doing better. I work in the ICU & have a kiddo learning to drive. I can't imagine how hard that was for u!
Kerbe7335
3 states away, had the flu, & tried so hard not to panic. THANK YOU because you saved somebody’s baby. Not mine, but they’re all someone’s
Kerbe7335
Mine is good, making a recovery and just returned to work. He’s waiting to go back to gym routines and other extras. He got a send chance.
Cyclicus
Yeah, wasn’t even a weird hit. Made the tackle, got up, went right back down. Hank Gaithers vibes.
murderhobbit
He had a heart attack
thereitis101
Exact comparison I explained to my wife. I remember that.
B3N15
It's the unassuming hits that can get you.
DALLASLAVOWNER
there is a thing where a blow directly above the heart can screw up the electrical impulses..apparently he is now in recovery at hospital
ThePunishersVengefulBrother
Yeah, they make youth league pitchers wear a pad right over the heart because line drives can do that.
cameloDancer
Watching the replay on Twitter, He took a helmet square to the chest, ?
KellyanneConwayTwitty
Yah he took a hard hit on the left side of the chest at high speed :/ scary scary stuff
CanuckleheadChick
Oh that's not good.
procrastinatingagain
I wonder if he ruptured his aorta or something.
eltonpups
Commotio cordis. Heart stopped from blunt trauma probably. Aortic rupture takes much more force.
Ssemo
They used an AED in him so I assume not
Gorillabumrush
Commotio cordis
