What is commotio cordis, which NFL player Damar Hamlin says stopped his heart?
Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin says commotio cordis caused his "Monday Night Football" collapse. Here's an explanation of the rare, heart-stopping condition.
Apparently it was a blow to the chest that almost killed him.
Professional wrestling fans know the effectiveness of the heart punch, I guess this was similar. The great Ox Baker came up with it and killed a few men with it.
