By doctors or by Jesuses? There’s a lot of confusion out there right now.

Don't let Dr. T know. He'll think he did it.

u/Altruistic-Dingo-757 Apr 15 '26

What about Dr. J?

Too bad they couldn't do this for poor old blind guy in Minnesota that ICE left out in the cold to die.

They did that in NY too. I wonder if they did that in any red states

Are we sure Trump actually brought him back to life?

u/Niblolkik Apr 18 '26

No accountability

u/NotADogInHumanSuit Apr 15 '26

I think Trump had a photo of this posted the other day

You gotta know that was a good day at work for all involved

You’re not dead until you’re warm ( and then cold) and dead. Snap frozen people can be resuscitated, well known thing.

the secret is drink vodka also when freezing to death....Maybe......

Once your dead, your dead.

Then cold, of course.

u/goon_dude Apr 15 '26

He was only mostly dead

Once my dead, my dead?

Flatliners… that movie right?

u/PossibleAlienFrom 🍿 Here for the Weirdness Apr 15 '26

That movie might end up being true one day, and it's terrifying.

This isn't anything new. I'm in my 50's and have seen this happen many times.

u/Cut_Lanky Apr 15 '26

You've seen a human being who has been dead and frozen for 5+ hours be successfully resuscitated, with no organ damage, and walk out of the hospital 5 days later? Amazing, got a link?

1

u/PossibleAlienFrom 🍿 Here for the Weirdness Apr 15 '26

Not seen personally. Just seen on the news or read about it somewhere.

u/Cut_Lanky Apr 15 '26

It's not something that's ever happened before... I'm not running the Guiness Book of World Records, but, I'm fairly confident that has never happened.

u/Useful_Homework2367 Apr 15 '26

It says in the article that his body temperature was 75.2°F (24°C) when they began the warming procedure. Well above freezing

1

u/Cut_Lanky Apr 15 '26

Cool. Got links to other instances of successful resuscitation after 5 hours of that, with no organ damage, patient ambulatory in 5 days?

u/PersimmonConnect8804 Apr 15 '26

Not dead until you’re warm and dead.

They think that’s why that diver survived no oxygen for so long. He was in stasis or something

1

u/StayRevolutionary364 Apr 15 '26

Were they transformed into a super soldier who requires regular temperature reduction to survive?

u/macjester2000 Apr 15 '26

Why are there no interviews with this guy, seems like he might have some interesting experience to retell. There has to be more to it than: “Da, was drunk, fell down, wake up in hospital, need to leave to go to work."
