Archer says it wasn't a heart attack, it was cardiac arrest. He has a rare condition where the heart beats too fast and then shorts out. Stress exacerbates the condition. No cure but it can be controlled with medication and internal defibrillators. His father could have had this too. If Archer hadn't kept digging he wouldn't be around much longer. He's grateful.
