{{quote|'''Naota:''' What did you do to me?!
'''Haruko:''' What, the CPR?
'''Naota:''' That's not what I meant.
'''Mamimi:''' Did she put her tongue in?|''[[FLCL]]'', episode 1}}
{{quote|'''Pacha:''' For the last time, ''it was not a kiss!''
'''Kuzco:''' Well, ''whatever'' you call it, it was ''disgusting!'' And if you'd done what I ordered you to do in the first place, we all could have been spared your little ''kiss of life''.|''[[The Emperor's New Groove|The Emperors New Groove]]''}}
Line 54:
* In an issue of ''[[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]]'', Northstar gives CPR to the homophobic Paulie Provenazo, with whom he was paired, to all appearances, because Jean Grey hated them both. Paulie wasn't happy.
* Played with in ''[[Runaways]]''. Gert revives Chase, which apparently causes them to fall in love with each other. Not that Gert will admit this.

'''Gert:''' I was reventilating him. Anyone who says otherwise gets fed to my %$@#ing dinosaur. }}
* Used and lampshaded in ''[[Ruse]]'', when Simon revives Emma this way and Emma promptly scolds him for "skipping the chest compressions".
Line 64:
** Beware the pop-out llama tongue.
** Lampshaded by a cutaway to Pacha's children later in the film:

'''Pacha's Son:''' Yeah, like ''that'' would ever happen! }}
Line 84:
* ''[[A Song of Ice and Fire]]'' has two types. The Ironmen, who worship the Drowned God and practice a type of baptism in which the subject is drowned, have developed a crude form of CPR called the Kiss of Life to revive each other. The death rites for followers of R'hllor include a kiss on the lips of the deceased, which starts to occasionally bring certain people back to life.
* From ''Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim'', David Sedaris relates a story of when his brother was drowning:

* Played with in the second ''[[Slayers]]'' light novel. When Lina wakes up after nearly drowning, Gourry says he performed CPR on her. Lina gets flustered, thinking he gave her mouth-to-mouth. However, it turns out [[Idiot Hero]] Gourry doesn't actually know what CPR means, as he then goes on to specify: "I laid you down on your stomach and kicked you in the back".
* Princess Petulia does this to Roger in ''A Barrel of Laughs, a Vale of Tears.''
Line 119:
** Admittedly, Sasha ''did'' remember the chest compressions, even if it [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|looked like she was feeling him up]].
** A RIG mini-game uses and lampshades the trope in the Game Over sequence, when Lex wakes up and discovers that he's been revived by [[Ho Yay|his only]] ''[[Ho Yay|male]]'' [[Ho Yay|coworker]].

'''Becky:''' [[Lampshade Hanging|You don't do mouth-to-mouth for a concussion!]] }}
* Subverted in [[Suburban Knights]] when [[Obscurus Lupa]] passes out during a battle. Both [[Bennet The Sage]] and [[The Nostalgia Critic]] want to [[Ship Tease|give her mouth-to-mouth]] but they argue for so long over who gets to give it to her that she wakes up before they resolve the matter.
