The Kiss Of Life
This photo, known as “The Kiss of Life” was captured by Rocco Morabito in 1967 and shows utility worker J.D. Thompson saving his co-worker Randal G. Champion’s life with mouth to mouth resuscitation after Champion accidentally touched a low voltage line. Morabito explained: “I heard screaming. I looked up and I saw this man hanging down. Oh my God. I didn’t know what to do. I took a picture right quick. J.D. Thompson was running toward the pole. I went to my car and called an ambulance. I got back to the pole and J.D. was breathing into Champion. I backed off, way off until I hit a house and I couldn’t go any farther. I took another picture. Then I heard Thompson shouting down: He’s breathing!”
