You lay them down and raise the legs to try and have enough blood volume in the torso and head that its possible to maintain a level of blood pressure.

I wonder what gave them that idea?

For future reference, to preserve life when a lot of blood is being lost, apart from putting pressure on wounds, you want to raise the legs and lower the head and torso. If enough blood volume can be kept in the critical parts of the body, then there will be some degree of blood pressure and the organs, especially the heart and brain can be kept functional for as long as possible. Well that's what our friends at Parkland Memorial suggest anyway.

I just love a good street hacking.
