It is probably thanks to a 62-year-old doctor that a 71-year-old man from Lower Austria could be brought back to life. The woman, originally from Germany, was an eyewitness, together with others, when the pensioner near Bad Ischl fell seriously on his bike and suffered a cardiac arrest.
A 71-year-old from Sonntagberg (Lower Austria) went on a bike ride from Ebensee to the Rettenbachalm in Bad Ischl with three friends on Monday. When riding back on the Rettenbach forest road towards Bad Ischl, the 71-year-old probably missed a pothole at around 2:40 p.m. He fell badly.
The pensioner apparently lost consciousness immediately and suffered a cardiac arrest shortly afterwards. A doctor (62) from Germany who was travelling with the group immediately began resuscitation measures.
Together with the emergency doctor of the rescue helicopter “Martin 3” and other rescuers, the 71-year-old was finally stabilized. He was flown by the helicopter crew to the Salzkammergut Klinikum Vöcklabruck.
