About this work

Description

Sets out to show people who have no specialist medical knowledge how they can save lives by calm, simple, but immediate action. Starting with high energy motorcar and motorcycle racing with several spectacular crashes, the film covers the principles of life saving which people might encounter needed as a result of a motorcar crash. Aftermaths (no bodies) and recreations of typical injuries of quite serious accidents are seen together with relevant action to be taken.
