This is why I'm so glad that NJ allowed their local medical directors to use a relaxed spinal immobilization protocol. We used to have to drag EVERYBODY out onto a backboard and they would be screaming all the way and then lash them to this hard, flat piece of plastic. And this was supposed to protect their spine. Now, we can put a collar on them (often bad enough) and say, "Maam, can you get yourself out of the car without pain?" If they can, they get out and sit on the stretcher with no pain and no extra damage. It makes everyone feel a whole lot better. As my last trauma refresher instructor said, "what used to be crap EMS is now good EMS. Go figure!" Also, the NJOEMS did not actually decide to use the relaxed protocols. That would require making a decision. They left the decision to the local medical directors. Typical Trenton BS!

The throttle, brakes, and clutch are separate systems, no reason for them to break at the same time. My car drove perfectly normally in every way except it was stuck in 2nd gear. And if it had gotten stuck in 3rd or 4th gear I probably would have driven it to the shop in that gear, but I couldn't drive at highway speed in 2nd gear, so I put my hazard lights on and drove to the next set of shops (a bit under the speed limit), found a part of the parking lot without anyone (for easy tow truck access), parked it, and called for a tow. At no point did I need to ram into a truck!

1:30 there is a real situation that can be similar, in diesel cars. It is called "runaway diesel", in short, the engine (usually "helped" by the turbo) has so much pressue that when the exhaust goes out, fuel is automatically taken in (even with the accelaration pedal off), and it goes in a loop to higher and higher revs (sometimes it will even suck in the oil from the turbo lines and use that as fuel). If you are unlucky enough so that you can't put it in neutral (like a broken clutch, or heck, a broken stick shift) the car will continue to go and accelerate no matter what, up until the engine explodes. The engine will not stop even if you take the contact off, because at high revs, the battery is no longer needed, since the compression alone will ignite the fuel. This happened to my bmw e46 (due to a broken oil line to the turbo), but clutch and brakes were fine and I did managed to stop the car (after going from 20 miles/h to 100 miles/h in a few seconds). The engine was still going, but I've used my fire extinguisher to starve it of oxigen, and it died off (CO2 fire extinguishers are mandatory in cars in some parts of Europe). Now, the fact that the car in the show was not a diesel, yeah, that doesn't make any sense tbh, since petrol car's fuel is not regulated by the rpm. Also for that to happen, you would need to not only get a runaway diesel, but also to have a bad clutch. Brakes won't help if you can't put it in neutral, since they will get too hot after a few seconds at that sort of power, and will be useless.

It's literally filled to the brim with basically a hardware stores worth of tools, specifically for jobs exactly like, and similar to that. Honest to God, it would be way quicker to just list the stuff on the truck that's NOT useful in this situation, cause it's gonna be a pretty short list... What the actual F? Who writes this show? How is this level of ineptitude even possible? This show is the perfect example of just how little Hollywood types care about working class people, and what they actually do at their working class jobs. It's almost disgusting.

[@kenbrown2808]

actually, no, high pressure airbags are pretty much the only thing on the truck that can lift that truck. the bad news is there's a 50% chance they're in the compartments on the bottom.

The whole series, I think!

Whatever your profession, if there's a show that features it, the reaction will be very similar… Hollywood just puts drama way above accuracy (even in cases like Apollo 13 (the movie) where the story has TONS of drama built-in, they still try to fuck around with stuff…)

you can get a certain age of truck for about $16.00 a ton depending on the price of steel. and it doesn't lose much value at all if you wreck it.

Near the end with the car malfunction..... i seen an episode of rescue 911 where they tried shutting the car off and the ignition wouldn't budge. Don't ask how or why but watching that part in this video reminded me of that segment

[@richardmillhousenixon]

It's called the clutch pedal lmfao. It disconnects the engine from the drivetrain, allowing it to continue redlining and still be able to maintain power steering and power brakes! (Yes, I know a Corvette from that era may not have necessarily had either of those, but they were at least available as an option since before 1970)

[@AlexCuza]

1:30 i have a better idea gee willikers: Kiddo....do you have your foot on the gas? Ok lift it up, the car will perform what is known as engine BRAKING, you will slowly, well, slow down, and when the car is slow enough pull the handbrake sloooooooowly to stop and stall the car without BREAKING YOUR NECK OR THE CAR AND A FIRE ENGINE...... or perhaps: Kiddo......is your gas pedal stuck, the shifter broken and the brakes busted? Perform this complicated maneuver called pushing the clutch in all the way and holding it there while sloooooooooooowly pulling up the handbrake to come to a stop safely without BREAKING YOUR NECK OR THE CAR AND A FIRE ENGINE and then quickly lifting the clutch to stall the engine.

[@courier6960]

How about he also pull the emergency brake that’s in his car.... y’know the one that’s for EMERGENCIES EXACTLY LIKE THIS ONE. The woman even tells him to pull it so I KNOW ITS NOT BROKEN!

[@louisrobitaille5810]

0:25 Tbf, it would require a miracle for it, but if a dozen men all went "superman", I'm pretty sure it would be possible to lift that truck just enough for a 13th guy to pull him out 🤔. (By superman I mean being turbo-boosted with adrenaline. Ever heard of those people who lifted a car to save their friends or baby? That's what I'm talking about.)
