When someone becomes unconscious, it is essential to know what to do. Some simple first aid steps, such as checking their vitals and for signs of serious injury, can help a person until the emergency services arrive. If a person is not breathing, it may be necessary to perform CPR.

Unconsciousness is an unresponsive state. A person who is unconscious may seem like they are sleeping, but may not respond to outside events, such as loud noises or being touched or shaken.

Take their wallet?
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

If it is a good looking girl.  I'd do as Larry Kroger did.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

When its time for them to go, I snap an Ammonia Inhaler under their nose and send them on their way.
