Margaret is amazing I would have been yelling so loud and bad words I just know it.Bless your heart ❤️🤍✌️🙏🌸🌺🚁🚁

[@bessofhardwick9311]

Magaret's amazing. That injury, OMG, but she was still laughing.

[@johnhenderson131]

14:41 These doctors and critical care paramedics are so devoted to their patients, I’m surprised they don’t just repeal from the helicopter when landing is difficult!

[@eliyodaiken127]

That pilot is so admirable

[@mariezurie7828]

Pilot Charlton doesn't realize his eminence value as a Pilot for the missions. The crews safety is #1. As we say in the US-you rock!🇺🇸👏

[@raeperonneau4941]

What an amazing group of people! I don’t understand why you’d make a healthy, experienced, pilot retire at a particular age ~ doesn’t make sense but I love the fact that he isn’t retiring, just going on to his next career!

[@arianamaria_]

It’s a safety precaution. As you get older not only do your mental faculties begin to deteriorate but the likelihood of you having medical issues goes up as well. There have been several high profile commercial air accidents that have been at least partially caused by various old age complications like poor eyesight or diminished mental clarity. If I remember correctly there was a case where they suspected an undiagnosed brain tumor found in the autopsy of the pilot as being a contributing factor to the crash. I suppose they could avoid forced retirement if a yearly retest was done on aging pilots to ensure they stay up to scratch but it’s likely just easier to have them all retire at 60

[@toddclean547]

The 60 year old rule is questionable. Individuals should be evaluated on a case by case basis.

[@giostisskylas]

Margaret rulez! I have the greatest respect for this old lady. Having an R1 in the living room at 86, which she probably drove herself, is absolutely great. My best wishes for Margaret's recovery. Greetings from Germany. BTW: A CBR1000RR hibernates in my living room :))

[@britishbobcat2098]

@giostisskylas I had a 1972 Norton Commando residing in my living room for the longest time. LOL

[@johnhenderson131]

16:25 I’m extremely impressed with both her and the paramedic…..the older woman for her ability to tolerate pain and a spectacular job by the paramedic in resetting the bones on a compound fracture as severe as hers! Excellent job, they don’t need the helicopter doctor at this point. The paramedic already did the difficult important work! I’m not worried about her ankle at this point, I’m more concerned about her age and antagonizing any preexisting conditions. Older people don’t recover from fractures the way younger patients do. I’m more concerned about an embolism….pulmonary in particular! Who knows what meds she’s been Rx-ed.

[@pjcranberry4912]

This is an amazing team. They work so well together and are so caring with the patients. I love this channel.

[@georgeg.morgan8841]

Please upload more episodes. These people are amazing and their stories are terrific! Thank you and thanks to all the pilots, doctors, and paramedics! They all ROCK!

[@Musiknird]

I love Jane! She is sassy, funny, kind and lovely with the patients. She's the type of paramedic that keeps the patients at a good spirit even when the situation is tough, but she also calm parents and the situation explains everything for them simple and clearly what's going on and what's about to happen.

[@pentiuman]

The Mafia certainly need to hire that young woman Margaret, w/ the broke ankle! They don't make them any tougher!

[@butchieblock9118]

I love the series. I grew up in England and my mum is from Notts and I've been living in the states for the last couple decades despite traveling back and forth a bit but it still makes me feel like I'm back home when I watch this!!

[@BLAB-it5un]

Among all the challenges of that boy hit by a car on the Isle of Wight is how long it was going to take a parent or family member to get to the hospital. The boy was there in 15 minutes but family maybe 4 hours later. Sure he was medicated and likely not alert at all during that time gap but nevertheless the delay in having anyone there surely was hard on all involved. I wonder if there was communication to the family with updates during their travels...

[@primaveraitaly5002]

You are marvellous in what you do. It is a pity you have to survive on private contributions to do your job. Unacceptable in this day and age.

I always get soooo freaked out when I see people with head injuries going combative, it never ever bodes well.

[@1MCS]

seeing the pictures just gives you another perspective of looking tf out what you are doing and don't rush things...

[@Axelsmom]

Regarding the boy that stepped in front of the car, when it was stated that he was losing consciousness and combative, I absolutely thought he would be posturing due to a head injury.

[@dianehawkins5741]

Great videos, just love to seeing the air ambulance. Think they do a fantastic job & so considerate. They all seem to love their work, so it's a great feeling to know that the uk have these highly trained ppl. I now live in Spain & it's just not the same. Great work.

Must be so rewarding to do a job like this

[@low-costgearbudgettour714]

I’m so impressed with the level of care in the UK and it’s available to all whether rich or poor. I used to live in the USA and had a medical emergency on Catalina Island (off the coast of LA). The island hospital wanted to send me back to the mainland by medivac chopper. I said no because it would’ve cost $30k (even though I had insurance coverage) just for that flight. I took the public helicopter instead for $50. Then was driven by my wife to our local hospital. 4 days in hospital cost my insurance company $35k and my co-pay was $750. No surgery just tests and meds. People have to turn down ambulances and hospital care because they can’t afford it in many countries. Now I live in Mongolia and healthcare is shocking. An ambulance is basically a “meat wagon”. Hospitals almost non-existent outside the capital and a couple of small cities. Helicopter rescue? Hahaha. Not unless you’re a VIP and it’d be a military one.

[@ZieSpiralOut]

I was watching a show about Ukrainian surrogates and this British couple had to keep their baby in a public hospital. The beds and cribs were just mattresses stained with blood and there were about 15 roaches running across the counter during the video they took… I was so incredibly sad for the babies and adults that have such poor care.

[@Lauriej117]

I’m so glad to live in Canada where we have universal healthcare. As an example, if your baby is born premature and requires a stay in NICU and you required a C-section for the delivery, the cost for everything such as the surgery, tests, medication and all the intensive treatment and observation you and your baby require will cost you absolutely nothing. It’s wonderful. Healthcare such as routine vaccinations, wellness checks, tests whether the tests are bloodwork, X-rays, ultrasounds, MRIs etc again will cost you nothing. Every country should have universal healthcare. It’s astounds me that a supposedly developed country, such as the USA, doesn’t have universal healthcare. It’s ridiculous that healthcare isn’t considered a basis human right by every government in the world and by all people. The medical staff on this series are extremely competent, knowledgeable and compassionate. Great people and series.

I wish they had an American version of this show…

[@johncspine2787]

Great to get the pilot’s perspective..he’s like “I’m just the driver” ignoring all his incredible training and experience in flying them safely there and back..without him/her, it ain’t happening! I’d love to study the science/aerodynamics of the helicopter blades..I wonder how their shape/tilt affects lift, why they are uniform and not thicker towards the center of the propelling shaft.. I had several neck surgeries, hardware implanted. As a solo horn player in a full time orchestra, I put my horn in the case at the end of a summer pops show at about 54 years of age, and have never played again. It wasn’t as dramatic as leaving a life-saving pilot career, but it still cut pretty deep. Going from doing activities onstage at the top of your abilities every day to being disabled was quite a shock. Only when it was over did I realize the stress of it all, but I got to do all the things I needed to do in a pro career..we always want to do more, but that’s human nature.l

[@pentiuman]

The young boy hit by the car - Jack. As both a parent, and a recent Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patient, it is so difficult for me to watch what he's going through!!! - Because I was likely agitated due to the TBI, but I personally know that I don't remember anything, due to either the injury and/or the drugs given. And as a parent, I cannot stand to see my child hurt, and the guilt I may feel as the parent, ultimately responsible for their care. But as the dr. said, he won't remember anything, and they saved his life w/ their expert care! So, yeah, I just can't imagine being a paramedic or a dr. and somehow not freaking out due to the immense potential stress of these situations! I couldn't stay calm! I don't think I was flown to the Trauma Center in a helicopter, due to the size of the bill I probably wasn't. But I wish I had been, and I often think of my emergency ambulance ride in one, when I watch this show. These people are so great, given the # of lives they are able to save, and the quality of life they add back to many of those they treat. It's sad to know that some patients never get the opportunity to thank them for their effort, because it's well deserved, even when, especially when the patient dies. Their heroic try should be reassuring to the family, that it was surely fate or meant to be, that their son or Father, daughter or Mother couldn't be saved I mean. The comfort their expert care provides is a testament to these paramedics inner generosity. Every City should be equipped w/ at least 1 helicopter and dr. / paramedic team, to make the rush to the patient, then to the hospital faster. I don't understand why ground ambulances aren't all manned by doctors? Anyone know?

[@chellesama8256]

Probably the expense. Doctors aren't cheap!

[@Karzieks]

[@MrKabDrivr]

Just curious: why are some people's faces blurred and others not?

[@NicolaArisi]

I think they didn't sign to show their faces in the show (maybe that didn't want to or for any other reason)

[@DarkJediPrincess]

The people whose faces are blurred out did not want their faces to be publicly broadcast, so the show respected their right to privacy and obscured them. There are other reasons faces might be blurred out in video footage, but I doubt any of them are relevant to this particular TV programme. If you’re curious, other reasons could include the following: • An undercover LEO is being interviewed; blurring out their face helps keep their cover from getting blown • Anonymous sources are blurred so they remain… well, anonymous. • The person being filmed is in protective custody or hiding from someone who means them harm. Wouldn’t want to give that someone any info that could help them track their quarry down, now, would we? I’m sure there might be others I missed, but those are the situations that immediately come to mind.

To that pilot: first thing to learn, always have gloves on while dealing with a patient. That’s kinda gross for u and the patient.

[@AntonGudenus]

There is no open wound and no contamination with possibly infectious matter, so him not having gloves on should pose no danger whatsoever in this case. Especially since he is only manipulating the splint. That's not less hygienic than handing someone a beer or a piece of clothing without wearing gloves.

23:46 The difference is, you may have white smoke to direct you to friendliest like a war zone but I don’t hear the sickening sound of ground fire impacting on the helicopter,….that makes concentrating on your task at hand much more difficult! No point in worrying about something you have no control over….Not that it changes anything but it’s the only way you can do your job effectively!
