>> My name is Vinnie
Jones and I'm going

to teach you a lesson
you'll never forget.

There are times in life when
being tough comes in handy.

Say some geezer collapses in
front of you, what do you do?

We need a volunteer
that ain't breathing.

Here's one I made earlier.

[ Music ]

First thing you do is
you check him over.

If he ain't responsive
or he ain't breathing

or he's making noises
like this [wheezing],

then his heart has
stopped working

and he's having a
cardiac arrest.

Look lively.

First, call 999, then you do
hands-only CPR and no kissing.

You only kiss your
missus on the lips.

Watch, lock your fingers
together, knuckles up.

Then push down, right
on the sovereign.

[ Music ]

Push down 5 or 6 centimeters,

that's about 2 inches
in old money.

Push hard and fast,
about two times a second,

like to the beat
of Stayin' Alive.

Worried you'll hurt him?

Better a cracked rib than
him kicking the bucket.

Keep this up until
the ambulance arrives.

So, don't forget; check him
over, call 999, push hard

and fast to Stayin' Alive.

It works. Hands-only CPR, it
ain't as hard as it looks.
