The story of a man in his 70s who was saved after suffering cardiac arrest is being called a miracle. What exactly happened?

The incident took place at a table tennis club in Seongnam last April.

When a man in his 70s suddenly collapsed on the floor while playing table tennis, another man immediately rushed over and began performing CPR.

After asking bystanders to call 119, he did not stop for a single moment for about 10 minutes until paramedics arrived.
