It was the impact on his chest during the electrical cycle of his heart. It’s frightening, but somebody can kill you, literally by hitting you in the chest just the right moment of when your heart is beating. If the electricity is disrupted, you’re dead.

He’s a miracle ! So happy he’s still alive and they administered CPR so quickly . He’s now cleared to play again. Thankful this had such a happy ending.. Hopefully he gets some counseling/mental health help- because he’s been through trauma.. it’s clear that it’s still hard for him. As someone who had a medically traumatic event a little more than a year ago (almost died during childbirth) it’s still really hard to talk about. He probably didn’t want to burst into tears during the interview..

Damar is an incredible human being. he's so incredibly humble. and Michael, in my opinion, is a great human as well because this was all still very fresh for Damar and there were things he didn't or couldn't talk about and Michael just rolled with it and moved on. I think it shows great character on his part.

I watched that whole game and was like “oh yea that’s not normal.” He literally stood up and fell out. I’m glad he doing ok, you can tell he still battling through it

Glad to see him prosper good luck in the future.

Thank you ABC News for covering Damar Hamlin’s story. The world 🌎 loves this man and his heroic tale. Hopefully, one day we will be able to read a book written by Damar Hamlin about his intimate experience with the afterlife. His is a truly unique story shared with millions of viewers throughout the world 🌎. Thank you again!

Trauma can last a very long time. Only a few years ago I took a 20ft. fall at my job working on tree removal. My head hit one branch on the way down so, knocked out, my body did not stiffen, and no broken bones. I did good damage though and left that hospital asap, 2 days, because that was my first time and I just wanted out. I didn't know that I had a concussion for the next two weeks, nor did I know why I was emotionally nervous for the next 10 months until someone told me that it was trauma. For the next two years I would drive by that tree and park, stare at it for a while, and still try to remember something, anything. I remember pieces that don't connect, the same thing as the ambulance ride and my time in the trauma unit and the hospital. It's coming up to four years now, my fear of everything has subsided but to this day, I can't tell you anything other than those few pieces.

When I saw the replay on the news, I remember thinking two things distinctly: that it didn't look like a hard hit AND commotio cordis, though I didn't remember the specific terminology for it. But I did think it had to be that thing where your heart stops in between electrical charges coursing thru it. Heard about it on ER a long time ago.

What a lovely human being

I remember watching this thinking it just another injury but realizing it’s much worse.

This happened to someone close to me. My loved one said he felt normal as well, no signs of distress or anything before his heart stopped. His next conscience thought was he knew he was in the hospital in the ICU. He has a difibulator implant. Recovery takes time, and he is on the road to recovery, and he will be able to live a normal life, just nothing crazy. I can see why DeMar doesn't really want to go into detail about how he was feeling right before he lost consciousness, I'm sure he will share that info with his doctors, bc its a tramatic experience. He needs time to fully come to terms with what happened. My loved one too. I just pray they both recover.

Condition is called 'Commotio Cordis' Rare, but deadly. Could happen to anyone, just most frequently sport-active people

Thank you, Jesus for The Miracle and the power of prayers. Trust me God listens. I was "dead" -severely injured when a reckless driver ran into me - I told God unconscious from that "space" or bright tunnel that blinded me these simple words: "God, I don't wanna die, at least not today". Prior to the accident I remember praying as I do starting by thanking God waking me up. However, other than the bright light and stars, only thing that told me something happened was PAINS. Yes, I tried NOT to complain for pains because that was a sign I was ALIVE by The Grace of God. Ever since when I wake up, as opening my eyes after the almost fatal hit, I thank God for giving me another chance to live by saving me again and again. So grateful.

God Bless You #3

Thank God that Damar Hamlin survived, after collapsing on the field.

I mean I’ll tell you what it feels like collapsing like that ,I’ve had that happen to me after surgery when I got off the bed to walk and before surgery, 1- when I was getting surgery as soon as the anesthesia kicked in and I was knocked out it felt like 5 seconds passed and suddenly I was awake in bed 9 hours later , the second time was after this same surgery I woke up foolishly tried to walk instantly and I fainted again felt like closed my eyes and 2 seconds later I open them to see my dad freaking out and me on the floor ,he said I was out for 10 mins, I imagine that’s what he felt probably getting into that tackle and suddenly 5 seconds later woke up in the hospital bed

So just keep going and always have god in u.

You can feel that he is traumatized. He stared death in the face. He could easily not be here. Also his whole future may have changed in an instant. He may not play again and that is hurting him. I assume doctors discovered a preexisting condition and that's why he doesn't want to talk about it. He doesn't want to even put it into the universe by saying it out loud because it could mean no more playing football. The sport he loves
