No. After that, the main thing that stays in your mind, psychologically, is why you are still there.“Surgeon saying ‘well, nine people out of ten will come out of the hospital dead’, so why are you still there. Why does life give you a second chance? All of those questions are massive every day.“You find yourself in a position where you try to understand why you are still there. Maybe you are on a mission to make people understand the importance of how to perform CPR.“Many few people know how to do it.

It could save hundreds, thousands, millions of lives.”Despite admitting to socially drinking and enjoying a few cigarettes, Ginola was relatively healthy when the incident took place. Such was the magnitude of the attack, the once flying winger was technically dead for eight minutes.My heart stopped for eight minutes at least. There was no pulse. I was dead. Then the air ambulance arrived and they hooked me up to a defibrillator.They sent three electric shocks to my chest and when the third didnt work they started to lose hope. But my friends told them, Do not give up, David is fighting hard. Somehow they could see that my body was fighting to stay alive.After the fourth my heart started again. The ambulance worker turned to my friends and said, I have a pulse. Everyone started cheering and crying.

Having finished the previous campaign seventh, the Reds came within touching distance of their first top-flight title for 24 years with a scintillating brand of attacking football and a remarkable campaign for striker Luis Suarez, who netted 31 goals in the Premier League, a joint record for a 38-match season.



It was Eriksen's 10th assist of the season and that took him alongside David Beckham as a genuine Premier League legend. As Opta pointed out after the match, it is the fourth season in succession that Eriksen has reached that total of assists - a record alongside David Beckham.
