Looks like the Bills Player died on the Field of DIED SUDDENLY

Posted on 01/02/2023 6:12:16 PM PST by Ouderkirk

Looks like the Buffalo Bills Damar Hamlin Safety just died on the field during the game. Giving him CPR...etc.

He's gone.

Yes, and the collision was directly on his heart.

other sports are a contact sport...football is a collision sport....most violent game in the world. I could never play this game...especially at the Pro level...you gotta be a little crazy.

"It often means they are locating and notifying next of kin."

They mentioned his parents were at the game and went in the ambulance with him

We don’t know, but there seem to be a lot of “died suddenly” crap happening recently.

I think every NFL team should screen their players for blood clots and myocarditis.

I would be interested in seeing the results from that (as if they would ever share them) study and it would give the players peace of mind as they play a game that severely strains the heart.

The only time I’ve seen that happen real life.. it was a friend who dived in the river without checking the depth. He got up and stiffened his neck... whispered to his sister to be taken to ER... he held his neck stiff all the way there and they put a halo on him. He WALKED in... tough kid...

had that happen to a teammate during practice in college. Trainer came out and administered CPR and saved his life. Obviously, that was the end of practice. We didn’t want to continue anyway.

ALL DEATH IS SUDDEN.

One second you're alive, the next, you're dead. SUDDENLY.

Oh - so maybe he did receive the hit - but it doesn’t APPEAR to be any worse than an average blow... still - he jumped up fine... until he wasn’t fine seconds later... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yLcdtlifJI

Happened in 1971:

On October 24, 1971, the Lions hosted the Chicago Bears at Tiger Stadium. Late in the 4th quarter, with Detroit trailing 28–23, the Lions were driving into Chicago territory and Hughes, who entered the game as an injury replacement, caught a pass from quarterback Greg Landry for 32 yards and a first down at the Bears’ 37-yard line.

Three plays later, Landry threw a pass that tight end Charlie Sanders dropped near the end zone. Hughes, a decoy on the play, began running back to the huddle with 1:02 showing on the clock. Suddenly, he dropped to the turf clutching his chest around the 20-yard line.[3] Hughes collapsed near Bears linebacker Dick Butkus, who saw him begin to convulse violently on the field. Butkus motioned to the sideline frantically to get Hughes assistance.[6]

Both teams’ doctors and trainers, along with a physician who happened to be attending the game, ran to Hughes to try to save him. An ambulance was called for and arrived to take Hughes to Henry Ford Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 5:34 pm that afternoon. He was 28 years old. The game was played to its conclusion in front of a now-stunned silent crowd in Tiger Stadium, with the Bears’ lead holding. The Lions awaited word of Hughes’ condition after the game and the players were informed once word had broken that he was dead.

A postmortem examination revealed that Hughes was suffering from undiagnosed and advanced arteriosclerosis (one of his coronary arteries was 75% blocked) and that he had a family history of heart disease. The direct cause of death was a coronary thrombosis, which caused a massive myocardial infarction that cut off the blood flow to his heart.[7][8] Hughes was buried in San Antonio, Texas, and all 40 of his Lions teammates attended his funeral, including head coach Joe Schmidt.[4] He was survived by his widow, Sharon Leah, and by his son, who was 1 year and 11 months old at the time, Brandon Shane.[3] A $10,000 trust fund was set up for his son by an insurance company.[9] His widow filed a $21.5 million malpractice lawsuit against Henry Ford Hospital in 1972 for not diagnosing his condition when he was hospitalized after complaining of chest pains. The lawsuit was settled on October 3, 1974 for an undisclosed amount of money.[10]

You are correct. Clear R on T. Direct shot on the sternum then immediate collapse.

Is he really dead? I don’t see reports of that.

If you do happen to see him, don’t go thinking he’s a zombie or anything.

That was a comprehensive video...especially the time with the staff clustered around him on the field.

During the tackle it looks like he took the brunt of the hit in his chest, but it just didn’t look like that hard a hit.

“ His next of kin are in the ambulance with him per the announcers.”

we don’t know that all of them are. How about siblings? In situations like this authorities don’t want any close family to learn of bad news over the media. I hope and pray it’s good news. Pray for him and for the skill and wisdom of the doctors treating him.
