An African American man collapsed on Eastern Parkway in Crown Heights on Wednesday afternoon, and an Orthodox Jewish man rushed to his aide.
He is a Lubavitcher Yeshiva student, reportedly here from Israel, and began performing CPR on the man. The man soon regains a pulse, and applause is heard from bystanders.
He was transported by EMS to a local hospital. His exact condition was unknown.

A real Kiddush HaShem.
Humanity at its best
Kol Hakavod.
It is a sad comment on our society that this is actually news.
Man obviously never lost a pulse to regain….but nice kiddush hashem regardless….
kiddush hashem to violate halacha? This is Lo Techanam.
Dak you’re an idiot and an Am Ha’aretz!
Beautiful Kiddush Hashem!
But I’m sure you won’t see it on the fake media
The NY Slimes, The Daily News, the Yellow Rag AKA The NY Post, will probably not report this, this does not fit their virulent anti Human & anti America & anti religious agenda.
Uncle Ben, what is your source or halachic reasoning for supporting the CPR?
7) רמב”ם הלכות עבודה זרה פרק י
א…..ואסור לרחם עליהם, שנאמר “ולא תחונם” (שם). לפיכך אם ראה גוי עובד עבודה זרה אובד או טובע בנהר, לא יעלנו; ראהו לקוח למות, לא יצילנו. אבל לאבדו בידו, או לדוחפו לבור, וכיוצא בזה–אסור, מפני שאינו עושה עימנו מלחמה.
