Jeff “Mantas” Dunn of Venom Inc. suffered a heart attack on April 30th and died for 5 minutes before he was brought back. He is currently recuperating from a double bypass surgery he underwent. “A day like any other, sun is shining and myself and Anita leave the house to drive to our next village.“Anita needs a new inhaler so we call into the pharmacy to collect one… that is when everything changes. I start to experience what I can only describe as indigestion, but then the pain gets worse. I decide to go back to the car and wait but by this time the pain is unbearable. The staff of the pharmacy help me out of the car and take me back inside. An ambulance is called. On its arrival I am taken into the ambulance to be monitored and assessed. The pain is not subsiding in any way and so the the paramedics call for a doctor. When the doctor arrives with a nurse I am immediately hooked up to an ECG and given the news that it appears that 2 valves in my heart are blocked. I have been told that the paramedics and doctor fought for just over 5 minutes to bring me back… essentially I had died in the ambulance.” Dunn went on to say that he is recuperating at home following emergency surgery. “There have been things which have happened during these last few weeks, which I have found very hard to come to terms with but it’s getting better. There is still a way to go but I remain positive.”
