CPR

In real life we know that CPR isn't easy and reliable in every and all critical situation as it is on fiction, but hey, we can still love it, right?

The whumpee might have drowned, taken a particularly strong electric shock, have being inside a fire, drugged, poisoned... it could be anything, really.

Could come with some pleading from the person doing the CPR, and the consequences for the whumpee may vary from "none" to "the sky is the limit".
