      Technically it is possible if the reason for cardiac arrest was hypothermia. The longest documented time between cardiac arrest and resuscitation is almost 7 hours. That’s where the old adage “No one is dead until they are warm and dead.” comes from.

          I didn’t want to include the cause of death because it seems even more outlandish and unbelievable than the duration of death, and the cause of death essentially deanonymizes my account. But I guess this username is already toasted from being used too much so I added evidence to my op.

              No worries bro. I got way more upset than I needed to. We’re good, my friend.

              I really should start lying and say I saw the matrix or something. Give the woo-woos an aneurysm.

      I can assure you I was. I was getting CPR the entire time. Maybe don’t run your mouth without knowing the full story?

      I wasn’t the only one that went down in this accident either, the other kid was out for 38 minutes. Again, CPR the entire time

      And if you’re wondering why they kept trying cpr for so long, it was because they were our teachers and the SRO who all knew us.
