🚨 Stayin’ alive… but make it Kendrick! 🚨
Did you know CPR in Australia should be done at 100-120 BPM? 🎶 "Not Like Us" by Kendrick Lamar sits right at 101 BPM—so if it`s stuck in your head, you’re already on the right beat!
"Stayin` Alive" by the Bee Gees is 103 BPM, which also makes it a great song for keeping the right rhythm during CPR! 🎶🚑
