OT On tv friends always lift someone's head when he is shot or

floor, and his feet lifted, in most cases so he gets blood to his
brain, etc.

You should not move any part of an injured person unless you have a
reason to. As for the head it is possible that they might be having a
breathing problem and that lifting the head could relieve it.

I believe that tipping the head back is park of the CPR process.
