My son was reading that story earlier. They didn't even know something was wrong until they noticed someone missing from the huddle.

Prayers sent to him and his family and loved ones.
God be with you.

There's a condition that causes vtach when someone takes a blow to chest, it's not common and I don't remember what it's called.

I believe you're thinking of Commotio Cordis.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest is a leading cause of death for young athletes.
Has been around since before COVID.
No need to take advantage of a tragedy to further an agenda.
A young man with his whole life ahead of him is now fighting for that life.

I just hope this kid comes out of this OK.

Not to stray away from the main topic but didn't the wrestler Crush accidentally kill another wrestler with his "heart punch" back in the late 80s or early 90s?
Is this basically the same scenario a direct blow to the heart and it causes cardiac arrest?

I remember watching a The Dark Side of the Ring episode about that. Horribly sad.

We don't need this here at OSA - good ol' JOC got us covered on why along with a truly sickening reply to divert away from this guys medical issue and back to the conspiracy theories. SMH. Hamlin is just 24 years old so keep him in your thoughts and prayers(if that's what you do). Start a new thread if you need attention.

I hope that he pulls through.
