And no i cant share it with you as it probably involve a person more or less dying in front of my car.

But i can tell what happen.

So i was about to set off to the pizza joint to get something to eat, and after defrosting my running car with warm water on the windows, just as i was about to enter my car i hear this weird "thud" sound.
I did think that's strange as i entered my car but then i just made 10 M forward to the tunnel thru the building and there on the pavement was a lady lying, and as it turned out that sound i heard was her landing on the pavement from her 2 floor apartment.

I stopped my car and proceeded to do first aid so i dont have what came after that ( lots of police - ambulance and paramedics ASO )
But i am now a witness and maybe a life giver ( again ) if she survive the drive to the trauma ward on the hospital down in Aarhus some 34 Km from here, she did get CPR cuz i saw the ambulance shake at one time before they set off with police escort.

My 2 cameras do have her impacting and the police have the footage, but most easy to see on my long range camera, but just go to prove, you can not have enough cameras, and you just got to know CPR so you can do what you can do, and be what some people call a hero ( i dont )
 
Hope she pulls through. Sounds like you might need a stiff drink.
I was hoping to do some first aid training, but you have to pay to get it. At the time I looked into it I had no money. Now I don't have time.
I think I could do basic CPR, but I'm not sure how I'd react in that situation.
Anyway, well done for stepping up. (y)
 
If you're able to censor the graphic part of the footage, news channels might well want to see it (erm... and me)

Wow that’s interesting, nice work. It’s odd at the moment she fell you were right there, which camera caught it? I would want a copy of it.
 
well not really that much gore and so on, when i get closer in the car pretty much just a body lying there, and the fall itself well its at a distance and suddenly she are just there off in the distance barely able to see what it is just something that pop up.
Some organizations like red cross or similar often have courses that might be free, that's how it is here,,,,,, free, but i have gotten my training as parts of educations where you have to know such stuff, and not forgetting my smoke diver certificate, now defunct as it have to be renewed every 4 years.

I will have a talk with the police on Friday to see what they say, and tomorrow i will have a look in the news to see if i can learn more on her fate.

Regarding media, then i would not send it to them, not for money or fame, im a strong skeptic on the merits of journalists.

Make the time - you never know when you will need the skill. My youngest son would not be with us today if we had passed on the opportunity to take the training (including my son who was only 4 at the time).

About 6 months after taking the classes, which included learning the proper way to do the Heimlich maneuver, we were eating dinner and he started choking on a morsel of food. Because of the training I knew exactly what to do and because he also participated he knew what I was doing and was fully cooperative and did not panic. As a result the entire episode was over and done with in less than 15 seconds. As to how you might react in a situation where you have to do something, my experience is if you know what to do you just do it without thinking. It's when you don't know what to do that confusion sets in and mistakes are made.
 
Yes Heimlich are also good to know, also on the curriculum for basic first aid i should think.

You should be able to find some form of night school / class thingy, and i would think it could all be covered and learned in 3 X 4 hours or so.

Heimlich - CPR - basic wound treatment should cover it, Heimlich you practice on each-other and dolls for infants /kids, CPR you learn with a dummy with gauges you breathe into and do CPR on, wound treatment are just book stuff and maybe try out some dressings on each-other ( no not burger dressings )

Garnish with a little know how of how to treat burns and so on,,,, not hard at all, and it can come in handy one day maybe for a loved one, or just a fellow man.

Guaranteed to straiten the back of a man and make him a inch or two taller, so next time you see something you dont go OMG you go Da Da Daaaaaa and spring directely into action or "heromode" if you are that kind of person.
