His heart stopped for only seconds.
Key thing here is that your dad changes his diet and begins to exercise regularly, and to do whatever the doctor tells him is necessary to maintain his heart health. If he has a second heart attack, it will probably kill him or lead to complications that will severely shorten his life.

Good luck, hang in there...
