" You learn How To do it And Then once you find yourself in that predicament, you're able to remember what you learned - it's about taking action and actually being able to do it in the First Place .

" So that's why it's very important we encourage Young People , we encourage anyone who has Snapchat on their phone, to learn How To do CPR through the Lens - because it will give people a better chance of surviving sudden Cardiac Arrest . "
