If the heart stops (heart attack) the loss of new blood supply causes heart muscle to begin dieing and if recovery isn't started soon you will die. If the heart attack is caused from one or more blocked arteries then the heart tissue depending on blood flow will begin dieing. Quick recovery of blood flow to the heart is necessary as the heart gets it's oxygen and nutrients before the other parts of the body.
