YouTube will now direct you to the right first-aid videos during an emergency | Searching YouTube for advice on CPR, heart attacks, or other critical health emergencies will now highlight authorita…::A YouTube shelf of first-aid advice for acute health emergencies from legit sources is now set up to provide advice on topics like heart attack, CPR, choking, or stroke.
Before our Top 5 most important CPR steps, a quick word from our sponsor, BetterHealth.
Times are hard, and you might be sad. BetterHealth is here for you, with overpriced and underqualified ‘therapists’ whose job it is to sit down and talk to very sad people about why and how they are sad, for hours upon hours, for little pay. Whats even better is there is basically no chance that this will occur to you, that basically our service is just a call center staffed by underpaid and overworked employees or contractors, because you are a sad person who uses therapy from a phone app, as you are likely too jaded to actually talk to anyone face to face and too exhausted to do any critical thinking. Sign up today and dont forget, or maybe dont remember to cancel the automatic subscription we willnsign you up for. And dont worry, theres no way for you to verify the actual integrity, track record, or any possible malpractice claims against our therapists because, well, only paranoid people check such things, and only truly crazy people cannot be helped by our dedicated call center slaves. Better Health. For your Health!
ALRIGHT YOUTUBERS its time for CPR step 1:
Don’t waste any time in ensuring the victim’s airway is not obstructed…
Step 2: compressions. Don’t forget to push that like button like the chest of the victim!
Fucking gold, perfect.
Make sure you like and subscribe if you saved a life today.
You forgot about a background about CPR, it’s uses then proceed a whole essay about its history, then eventually reaching to the main point but explained in the most vague way possible. It’s also probably narrated by an AI.
Hey guys! It’s me EverydayCPRTips back again with an exciting video on how to perform life saving CPR. Before we get started, don’t forget to compress that like button and breathe some love into that bell so you can be notified anytime I release a new video. Leave a comment below if you’d like to see any other life saving techniques!
But will it still play an ad before the video?
- 2 unskippable pre rolls that advertise drugs to treat the causes of the emergency condition
- 5 minute long explanation of the creator’s life story
- 1 minute long subscription beg
- 2 extended sponsor breaks with awkward segues
- first 30 seconds of content
- patient is dead
SMASH LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE AND HIT THE BELL
Better install Sponsorblock
As a person with YouTube Premium I am angered that I still need to install 3rd party extension to block this shit. These should be skipped automatically, since content creators get more money from Premium viewers anyway.

I’m laughing out loud imagining someone trying to give CPR and having to watch two Crest commercials and an ad for the new F150
Put yourself in the dark mind of an unethical marketer:
“Sure, the Ford F-150 may be pricey, but you may be coming into an inheritance soon. Your loved one would want you to have the best. Come down to your local Ford dealer and check out the new F-150 Lariat.”
And if you’re on Firefox, will it still add that forced 5-second delay while loading the page?
Yeah one of those 30 minutes ads there used to be (not sure any more I have premium & ad block).
Imagine having an adblocker, and still paying for premium for whatever reason.
Music. App wise and all that I prefer Spotify but YouTube Music has everything, officially and not officially by somebody uploaded a video, plus you can upload your own mp3 files if something is missing.
Also in the beginning of the subscription I had a work provided iPhone so it was nice to not see ads there.
I don’t have premium anymore, but back when I did, I got it to better support the channels I watched since I believe they got more revenue from the views of subscribers than people watching the ads.
Which you can watch after 5 ads /s
why /s?
It’s kind of funny how the enshittification of YouTube (and Google searches) is so bad, and so widely recognized, that YouTube giving the results you asked for—IF you’re having a medical emergency—is considered newsworthy.
Also consider how long YouTube has been around and under the control of Google. And this is just happening. Why wasn’t this done 10 years ago…
Ad free, right?
RIGHT?!
Is there any better place for hospital/coffin ads?
“ tilt the head, to ensure the air way is open. Before we get to compressions, it’s a good time to remind you that this CPR video is sponsored by RAID: shadow legends…“
I’m not sure how I feel about the authorities being alerted. What if someone is kinda bored and is looking for videos for educational use.
I may be reading it wrong but this is just not what the article says.
By “highlight authoritative sources” they mean display credible videos made by the authorities at the very top of the search results.
And within the article you’ll read that one of the first instructions given in said videos is to call an emergency service, and not that youtube is going to do it for you
Where does it say that? The article only mentions authoritative videos, which means they have been made or approved by authorities, not that watching the videos will interact with them in any way.
slow clap
Guess it’s better than making me sit through an ad first, but is this really that big of news otherwise?
Nothing 911 could tell you on the phone and would be faster…
Visual video reference. 911 could also tell me how to change my oil but a video is a lot easier
i mean yeah for sure, take your time in an emergency and watch the video first
Baby steps towards a return of curated truthful content? Nah, just CYA so they don’t get sued.
What? The free market doesn’t just work?
