Motorcyclist Crashes After Getting Seizure, Lifeguard Jumps To The Rescue
Subscribe to our FREE Not all traffic accidents are caused by reckless drivers and road rage. Sometimes, they happen due to a person experiencing health issues while driving a car or riding a motorcycle. In a dashcam footage that went viral recently, a motorcyclist could be seen veering off to the side of the road and hitting a highway divider when he experienced a seizure while riding, twitching on the ground after the crash. Underwater hockey player and lifeguard Manigandaa Keertan, who shared the video on Instagram, was seen next to the victim, trying to keep him calm and secure while his partner Maddie called an ambulance and relayed accurate information to emergency services. Staying calm is important while assisting someone experiencing a seizure In his post, Manigandaa emphasised that it is important to stay calm when someone is going through an episode. He then listed things that people should know when dealing with a person experiencing a seizure: Stay calm and keep the person safe. Don't hold them down or try to stop the movements. Don't try to open their mouth. Protect their head and time the seizure. Turn them on their side after the seizure ends. Call for help if it lasts for more than 5 minutes. He then advised what not to do in this situation: Don't put anything in their mouth. Don't try to force their jaw open. Having the right skills and knowledge can help in emergency situations until professional help arrives TRP reached out to Manigandaa, who said the incident occurred along Jalan Lapangan Terbang Subang, just opposite the Subang Airport. When asked if his lifeguard skills came into play while assisting the crash victim, Manigandaa said it definitely did. He runs a lifeguard company called 'We have trained for these kinds of scenarios so I would definitely say it helped a lot,' he said. 'I think that this is a skill everyone should learn and be brave enough to help others. People always have the fear of making someone's condition worse. But, if a person is not breathing, they are already in their worst state so there's no harm in trying to help,' Manigandaa added. Manigandaa's story shows how valuable it is to learn some basic medical skills for emergencies. How many of us can say that we know what to do when someone needs cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), or recognise signs of someone having a stroke, or how to help someone having an asthma attack?

(Batik Air pic) KUALA LUMPUR : Batik Air is taking bold steps to expand Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, Subang (SZB) into a dynamic hub, beginning with the launch of its first international route from the city airport, commencing July 28, 2025. The airline will operate daily flights to Bangkok Don Mueang International Airport (DMK), marking a momentous milestone in the airline's growth and in the revival of Subang as a key aviation gateway. On the same date, Batik Air will also commence daily flights to Kuching International Airport (KCH), further strengthening domestic connectivity from Subang. This exciting expansion is part of Batik Air's commitment to transform SZB into a vibrant city airport hub. Batik Air chief executive officer, Chandran Rama Muthy, said the launch signifies a new chapter, one where travellers can enjoy the convenience of flying closer to the city while still accessing a growing regional network. 'We are proud to be at the forefront of Subang's transformation into a modern, city-based hub. Bangkok is just the beginning. 'Subang offers a smart, time-saving alternative to KLIA, and we believe it will play an increasingly important role in the future of Malaysian aviation. With Subang, we are bringing the world closer to the Klang Valley,' he said. Batik Air is also commencing daily flights to Kuching International Airport from Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport in Subang on July 28, 2025. (Batik Air pic) The SZB-DMK route, operating seven times weekly, opens up a seamless connection to the Thai capital – an all-time favourite for Malaysian travellers in search of culture, cuisine, shopping, and adventure. With Subang's close proximity to urban centres like Petaling Jaya, Shah Alam, and Kuala Lumpur, the over nine million Klang Valley residents can now enjoy swift departures and arrivals without the long commutes typically associated with larger airports. Simultaneously, the launch of SZB-KCH, also operating daily, enhances access to Sarawak's capital city, a vital hub for business, government, education, and tourism. The route provides East Malaysian travellers a city-friendly alternative to KLIA, while inviting more West Malaysians to explore the rich cultural heritage and biodiversity of Borneo. Batik Air operates services from Subang to Penang, Kota Bharu, and Kota Kinabalu, and now Kuching and Bangkok as well. (Batik Air pic) These new services are also expected to attract more visitors from Thailand and East Malaysia to discover the many charms of Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. With its blend of royal heritage, ecotourism, theme parks, shopping, and gastronomy, Selangor continues to shine as a destination in its own right. In addition to the upcoming daily flights to Bangkok and Kuching, Batik Air already operates services from Subang to Penang, Kota Bharu, and Kota Kinabalu – bringing the total to five key destinations served from SZB. As Batik Air continues to grow its network, the reawakening of Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, Subang, signals a new era in city-based air travel where convenience, connectivity, and comfort come together for the benefit of all travellers.
