Good story and ending but there is a small difference in fainting and a heart stopping. Absolutely zero percent chance they were doing anything other than pushing a little on her. Impossible for a human to compress an elephants sternum/rib cage to perform actual CPR.

Agreed. Also, CPR doesn’t bring people back to life. It’s temporarily keeping blood flowing until (if) the heart can be restarted. It’s not like the movies where people just pop up and are fine after 20 seconds of CPR.
