Is it as hard as it looks?

No! In fact it as easy as Mr. Jones says it is! 

For Adult basic life support this is about as easy as it gets.

Some may think that this is commercial suicide but I have no issue stating the following... What takes the average resus trainer 2 hours to cover, this advert covers in under 2 minutes! Thats pretty good! 

This doesn’t and should not replace the need for actual face to face training.  There are certain issues I take with this advert; hand positioning not quite right, and ironically Vinnie Jones doesn’t look (to the trained eye) to be pushing nearly hard enough!

The real strength of this advertisement campaign really is its ability to de-mystify the act of resuscitation and prove that you do not have to be a healthcare professional to do something that can ultimately save a life!
