Performing hands-only CPR to the beat of “Baby Shark” is the perfect way to help save a life. The song is the right speed for chest compressions.
According to the American Heart Association, 350,000 people suffer from cardiac arrest each year in the United States. Of those, 90% will die if they don’t receive immediate CPR.
Performing CPR within the first few minutes of cardiac arrest can double or triple a person’s chance of survival. Hands-only CPR is easily performed in two steps – dial 911 and then push hard and fast.
