Bob Odenkirk credits CPR and intense training for his Nobody role, in addition to his Better Call Saul co-stars, for his heart attack survival

Odenkirk previously told The New York Times how co-stars and roommates Rhea Seehorn and Patrick Fabian were responsible for helping him and alerting the rest of the crew when he suffered heart attack on set last year. While visiting The Howard Stern Show this morning, Odenkirk was asked if his intense training for action movie Nobody contributed to his heart attack. "In fact, it saved my life," Odenkirk said, describing how it took three tires of the defribillator to get his heart back in rhythm. "One of the things that saved me is I learned how to work out," he added. "And because I was in good shape, you kind of enlarge some of the ...other veins around your heart if you work out a lot. And I had done that. And as a result, I was told that more blood was able to then go to my heart during CPR  because these veins were just a little bit bigger from a lot of working out." Odenkirk noted that he required much faster than usual.
