Impaled Patient Was Catapulted From His Bike | Helicopter ER S1 E8 | Real Responders

In America, we go on 3 (1, 2, 3, GO!). Hearing, “reddeh, steddeh, move!” made me smile lol.

I hope the guy on the bike realizes that there was angels with him. He wouldn't died if not. Praying for you all

I was a volunteer firefighter and EMT for many years when I was younger, and 17 year old Cameron's car has to be the worse I've seen where no one was killed. Truly miraculous. Teenage boys with new drivers licenses are the same the world over, they love to race with their friends. Sadly it quite often ends tragically. He is one lucky boy.

[@praetorxian]

Paramedic in Canada for 10 years. Our station is right beside Highway 401 (North America's busiest). Have seen more mangled vehicles (and occupants) than I care to remember. Every time I've seen a car ripped in half like that, it has always been a fatality. Cameron should buy a lottery ticket.

I'm a 54 year old woman. I drive back and forth 2X a week, 10 miles round trip, to care for my dad, on one the most dangerous expressways in America, 3 lanes, gigantic trucks,25 feet in the air, with 5 exits in between. 1/4 of a million people or more pass through this horror daily, many for the very first time in their lives. I remind myself EVERY TIME to be very careful! But even then....I'm afraid and ashamed to say, sometimes, I take chances.

[@lisamarieashby2523]

Lucky - perhaps. Utterly stupid is my word. He should have lost his license until he retakes his driving courses and have to wait until age 21 to drive again, imo.

[@carolinelogie7721]

I did too!! LOL. I love frogs. When I was a kid I used to save frogs all the time. Once my family went to a beach in North Carolina USA and I saw a lot of frogs as it was the early part of summer. I found a clay flower pot and quickly rounded up at least 35 frogs 🐸 of various size and put a lid on them and brought into our motel room. We all went off to sleep and next thing we knew my mother was screaming that something was jumping on her middle of the night! Uh oh! Daddy turned on the light! Frogs 🐸 jumping all over the room. I never heard the end of that one!!!😊😊😌

A guy I went to high school with was known by the police and had a warrant for his arrest. He got in a police chase and came down a street that was only 3-way, and he was on the side that ended. He was said to be going over 80 mph when he hit the oak tree. That tree the original owner of the house planted over a hundred years before this. It only got a few scratches when his car hit it and came apart. Almost completely came apart. The doors came off, the engine was 5o feet away. The battery was 20 some feet in another direction. He walked away. The guy's father, who was sitting at the light when his son hit the tree, was asked if his son had been to church recently. He had just gotten married to his high school sweetheart, who was in my class at our vocational school. At that same three way stop light was the Fire department and the County Sheriff's Office. Her last name isn't his anymore.

Remember panicking, crying & freaking our _never_ helps anybody. In fact, it only distracts the medical team from doing their jobs. If they have to listen to somebody losing their $hit. Stay calm & have your freak out later. Once the injured person(s) has been taken away. Emergency personal do it this way too. 🤗

Ummm, it's usually the pain that causes them to "lose their 💩"! 🙄

[@Digitalhunny]

@@59Alaskan - Today's lesson: Reading the _entire_ original post, _before_ commenting. 🙄 As the 'freak outs' 8've referred to are not from the patients. But from on lookers, friends or partners. *sigh Are we at that point that folks don't even _read,_ before they run their fingers? SLOW YOUR FINGERS DOWN! You might break a nail. 😂😂😂😂🤗

[@jeremyowen1]

​@@Digitalhunny Some of us understood what you meant, it's something my mom taught me from a young age. No matter how crazy the situation is, it doesn't help anyone if you freak out. Stay calm, deal with it, and break down later if you need to. Especially if the cause of the medical emergency isn't immediately apparent, like drinking or eating something they shouldn't of. Think Chubbyemu's channel if you're familiar with it. The more information you can provide the better.

[@RedKresnik11]

Out of curiosity, do they have to pay for the helicopter ride? Is that out of pocket? Or is it like the ambulance, free? (Yes, I know taxes are paid so it’s not technically free, but in the US, you pay for both, pay a LOT extra for helicopters, emergency medicine, AND we pay taxes.)

[@AmberMcQuaker]

It's covered through taxes paid for the NHS & donations.

[@RedKresnik11]

@@AmberMcQuaker how wonderful. If it’s used here in the US, we pay ungodly amounts for it individually. It’s a racket here.

[@AmberMcQuaker]

@@RedKresnik11 that's insane. I'm in Ontario Canada, both ground & air ambulances cost $45.

[@jillbecker8651]

In America we pay for everything. Health insurance if you can afford it, ambulance by land or air. Air ambulance can cost around $40,000.00. That’s if insurance doesn’t cover it. Medical costs in USA are obscene!

@@jillbecker8651 that's sad. It's heartbreaking that someone could be dying and simply because they're not privileged they can't go to hospital for care.
