    To those of you who find the guy having a heart attack funny all I can say is I hope you are never laying in a bed in the emergency room holding your wife’s hand wondering if you are going to see tomorrow.

    Been there, done that and have the zipper in the chest to prove it.

    Gotta say that while a lot of people looked at this as a joke, I looked at it as a great example of technology working. When he reels back it’s because his pacemaker just defibrillated him…his pacemaker spotted a heart attack in progress and zapped his heart back into a normal rythym and saved his life. That’s just amazing.

    This is a fake, I have personally caused a lot of heart attacks in others and this was photoshopped, I could see pixels.

    I’d like to see Jägermeisters comment that was censored from the uncensored blog.

    @Docpatterson (aka Occam)

    That sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

    1) The guy is old
    2) He’s in a debate that he knows he’s going to loose no matter what (tend to angry up the blood).
    3) On a well-lit TV set (likely to be in the high 80s under the lights).
    4) He was likely told that the debate is being sent to the entire world, so “don’t screw up!”
    5) History of heart condition (pacemaker).

    Nope. No conspiracy here. Just an old scientist who wasn’t ready for his 15 minutes…

    #29 Maybe he was the pro global warming in the panel and he couldn’t handle reality.

    #26 and #29 you are right.

    Henrik Svensmark has a implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) pacemaker, i watch the debate live so #28 its not a fake.

    #4, not bad, but it’s more like
    4 am. – it’s dark outside.
    6 am – Brighter than 4
    8 am – Brighter & warmer than 6.
    10 am – It’s very bright outside now.
    12 am – Wow, its really bright and warm.
    Hypothesis: It’ll get warmer & warmer, brighter & brighter exponentially until we burst into flames and DIE!! We MUST do something!!
    Those skeptics who say this is natural are denialists who are afraid of taking action!!
    2 pm it’s really still getting warmer according to one data set

    Hypothesis: It’ll get warmer & warmer, brighter & brighter exponentially until we burst into flames and DIE!! We MUST do something!!

    4 pm – the current lower temperatures is just temporary weather tinyurl.com/ydrmn6m
    Fact is the last 6 hours hold four of the warmest hours on record.
    It’ll get warmer & warmer, brighter & brighter exponentially until we burst into flames and DIE!! We MUST do something!!

    6 pm – The long term trend is still positive, and the warming is worse than thought a few hours ago tinyurl.com/mo6ntz
    It’ll get warmer & warmer, brighter & brighter exponentially until we burst into flames and DIE!! We MUST do something!!

    8 pm – The low temperatures are just a pause in global warming, which will kick in again when the current natural cycle ends. This pause was expected tinyurl.com/mbqtxp and doesn’t invalidate climate science in any way. On the contrary it confirms it.
    We must take advantage of this pause to prevent the future warming, or we will all die!

    5 am – as predicted, the longer term global warming signal is again manifesting itself
    Hypothesis: It’ll get warmer & warmer, brighter & brighter exponentially until we burst into flames and DIE!! We MUST do something!!

    I think it’s pretty funny when people get into accidents or die. I’ll even stop the car to point and laugh at people in car accidents. Why? because I don’t feel like caring. There are way too many dumbasses out there and I could care less if they get hurt or die.

    Now if I actually know them then it’s different, but strangers give me a good laugh. Damn, look at the Prius driver going 95mph…she is one hot looking….errr, she just crashed…let me stop and laugh.

    “Hey, you looked hot. Your Prius smoked my EVO X like there’s no tomorrow. I applaud you. Keep it up, you’re not completely out or dead yet. I would help you but you know I’m not ‘qualified’. See you later…BWWAAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHA”

    Interesting to see these guys who want to ‘save the world’ sit there and do nothing while a man is having a heart attack in front of them.

    This is some really f’d up stuff.

    This was remore controlled heart attack.

    -a message.

    nothing more.

    His movements do not fit the “normal” responses during a heart attack.

    What was with the two guys on the end that did not respond? complete lack of response.

    Control of the planet is at stake with these talks.

    Those who want control will stop at nothing to achieve this end.

    My heart goes out to him.

    It’s time to change the name of the blog to “Climate Change Debunked While You Wait.”
