Cardiologist Explains How Damar Hamlin’s Cardiac Arrest May Have Happened

Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin might have been a fraction of a second away from moving on to the next play. Hamlin suffered a cardiac arrest Monday night when he collapsed on the field in Cincinnati, was administered CPR under life-or-death circumstances and hospitalized in critical condition after what one independent board-certified cardiologist saw as a collision at the time in the cardiac cycle when the heart is most vulnerable.

“That hit had to occur at a certain point in time that was only five milliseconds long,” said Dr. Marc Cohen, Chairman of the Department of Medicine at Newark-Beth Israel Medical Center. “If that hit occurred one millisecond after or before, this may not have happened.”

What looked like a routine (by NFL standards) tackle by Hamlin on Bengals receiver Tee Higgins resulted in Hamlin getting to his feet, adjusting his facemask and immediately falling onto his back as horrified players from both sides watched trainers, paramedics and doctors assist with his breathing and restore his heartbeat.

Not at anywhere near the rate it is happening now.

I'm not arguing that he died from something else. You might actually have a good argument.

I'm of the premise that everything presented so far he would require a pre-condition of something wrong with his heart. As a normal heart doesn't create a effusion from the sac from an impact as it's not overly full.

Think of a balloon with a little air in it. You can twist it and form it anyway you want. Fill the balloon it will pop if you compress it.

Remember your argument if you're right can also mean he had a damaged heart from the injection. My argument is he might not be able to have made it to the field with a damaged heart. Though he would be benched and that would be bad for his career.
Meaning he could've had a light warm up to avoid any complications.

This is the axiom I live by so you might be able to understand me
Real scientist is psychologically very difficult. you have to think in terms of "how am I wrong?" rather then how most people think, "how can i show I'm right?"
Nearly every single day i find something I'm wrong about. I've learned the hard way nearly everything I believed was wrong.
My red pill is a daily experience.

My main issue I have. He stood up after the impact.
Which means it was indirectly related to the impact. Such as an increased heart rate.
