So if they are using a manikin, why are they faking CPR compressions? That kind of goes against the whole "realistic scenario" idea.

Excellent job?? This was an embarrassing display of BLS skills. I mean, look, I know this is a competition and all, but you can't just run around like chickens with your heads cut off. I've seen several EMS competitions, but nothing that ever looked like this.

Yeah your right... they're supposed to... but do NOT take that video as your EMT training.. ;) you're not gonna pass :P

seems like they're doing everytings they've learned in their training on the same patient... no matter what the patient has... Very strange.. haha
