Miracle recovery from 40-minute death at Melbourne Sports & Aquatic Centre

A FORMER junior world champion triathlete who was clinically dead for more than 40 minutes was brought back to life by an extraordinary group of people who refused to give up on her.

Returning to the pool yesterday, with a pacemaker defibrillator fitted to stop it occurring again, Ms Carney paid tribute to her saviours.

"It's really bizarre. I woke up three days later and I was in ICU," she said.

"But I feel quite overwhelmed to know that I was in their hands from Nick who noticed me not swimming, to Pedro who started the CPR to the paramedics and firefighters and doctors. It's amazing."
