So for the first aid nerds: this was filmed in winter 2005/06 of Bondi season 1. International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILOR) came out with the 30:2, no breath check, 100 bpm guidelines in late 2005, which were in turn only adopted in November by the American Heart Association. Probably the same in Australia, though I don't know the Aussie organization.
Plus the guards here may be trained to a higher standard (like HCP) which still includes a pulse check along with the bag-valve mask.

I was also taught recently to just check breathing because even if there is a pulse after shocking the heart may stop again anyway so it would be better to just continue compressions until he begins to breathe.  But remember this Australia and they may be taught differently and also this was two years ago.

Good job on their behalf, but there shouldn't be a pulse check - just check breathing and if not breathing - start CPR right away. This is because sometimes pulse is hard to detect, very faint..etc.

Also, CPR should definitely be much stronger and faster - 30 compressions:2 breaths

@Nightglow98 This is one of the smoothest resuscatation efforts i've seen and to try and critique it is a little bit rediculous when the main goal is to bring someone back... They met this goal and did everything correct in my opinion because they saved his life. Out in the field things must be done any way they can be done.

By the way this video was made 2 years ago when the compression to breath ratio was still 15:2... It was in debate whether to go to 30:2 at the time.

The CPR was way too slow and too weak...
but they didn't misinterpret the agonal respirations, so well done!
