Kid's Got Heart

Jeezus. Watch this video of some fucker named Anthony Van Loo, a defender for SV Roeselare of Belgium's Jupiler League, suffer some mid-match cardiac-arrest, literally die for a few seconds, then be brought back to life by a defibrillator implanted in his heart. At about the 0:15 mark you can see his whole body jump off the ground as the Lown waves pulse through his sinoatrial node. That is some wild shit.

Not to self: if you ever have a heart-condition severe enough that doctors determine it necessary to have a defibrillator implanted into your heart, cease and desist the playing of professional sports.

For an enhanced video watching experience, get this song playing in another window.



And you thought soccer players were pussies.
