I have know people who stow away on freighters, this sounds a bit extreme!
I saw that story and thought of what I learned in a CPR class some time ago. It seems that for most adults the percentage of successful recoveries when CPR is needed isn't so great, but with kids the results are phenomenally good.
The difference is that the very young still retain the ability to go into a sort of hybernation mode like being in the womb. (Many stories of children caught under the ice for 15 minutes after having fallen through and being brought back to full health.)
