Safar believed his methods could be employed by those outside the medical field to save lives, provided these laypeople were given adequate training in his techniques. To more effectively teach this procedure to them, he envisioned having a life-sized doll that novices to cardiopulmonary resuscitation could practice on, and so he approached toymaker Asmund Laerdal with the idea of developing a realistic mannequin for CPR training.
Laerdal took up the challenge. The legend collides with reality in that while the doctor behind the creation of CPR Annie did not model its face after that of his deceased daughter, he was indeed the father of a girl who died in childhood.
In , Dr. Peter Safar and his wife, Eva, produced a daughter, whom they named Elizabeth. After she was pulled out of the Seine, she was transported to the Paris mortuary, and put on public display alongside the bodies of other unknown dead for the purpose of identification. Despite the crowds, however, nobody recognised L'Inconnue , or at least none came forward. But while she may never have been identified by the crowds who attended her corpse, that's not to say she went unnoticed.
Corpse viewing at the Paris morgue G. Even in death her serene appearance turned heads. One of those heads belonged to an attendant at the mortuary, who — so the story goes — was so transfixed by her, he ordered a plaster cast to be made of her face. Before long, L'Inconnue's alluring, deathly likeness was reproduced in facsimiles sold in souvenir shops across Paris, then Germany, and the rest of Europe. The mesmerising mask of this unknown dead girl — described by philosopher and author Albert Camus as the "drowned Mona Lisa" — became a coveted cultural icon.
In time, L'Inconnue's frozen half-smile rested on mantels and hung in drawing rooms all over the continent. She was positioned in artists' workshops, gazed upon as a mute, motionless model. But it wasn't just sketchers and painters who were captivated.
Poets and novelists became entranced too. At some point, L'Inconnue turned into a kind of morbid meme for early 20th century writers, who contrived countless dramatic histories for this heartbroken heroine, engulfed by ill fortune and the weight of water.
Death, water, and woman was a tantalising combination. One critic described her as "the erotic ideal of the period", the aesthetic template for a "whole generation of German girls [who] modelled their looks on her". In the field, best practice is for paramedic partners to swap ventilation and chest compression roles every two minutes. Sensing and recording these actions external to the mannequin required adding additional audio and visual sensors microphones and cameras.

Many years later the other sister had visited Paris on holiday.
Walking down a street she was shocked to see the mask of the drowned Inconnue hanging outside the mouleurs' workshops.
She had instantly recognized the girl as her long-lost twin, condemned — or blessed — to remain forever young, while her sister grew old. Grange says that once again, a tapestry of imagination had been woven around the enigma of the Inconnue. And that imagination keeps spreading. The Oxford-based artist, John Goto, created an entire backstory for the Inconnue years ago.
The project faded away. Or so they thought. It's a symposium of sorts for CPR:.
