Rescue 911-Episode 105 "Easter Hunt"

[MaddDogg81]

I was saying he should have made it easy to findhimself no matter where he was, I mean even in the 80's they could. These days I'd get one of thos GPS phones that can be used anywhere

[MaddDogg81]

Why would you go to a place you might not be able to be contacted in that situation

[ScheisseBernd]

@MaddDogg81

He didn't expect that a kidney would be "free" for him, so he enjoyed his life.

What are you gonna do?

Wait on something, you think you will never get, or enjoy the life with your family?

Sorry, English is not my native language

[MaddDogg81]

damn VHS tapes. I love that TV is digital and we have the internet

[epcdaniel]

That video is blurry I feel I'm watching it from a different dimension. :P

[CupcakeExplosion11]

@epcdaniel I almost like it. I like basicly everything but those mice in the speakers.

[Sara4Fergie]

This whole thing would have been made much easier if this happened today now that we have cell phones.

[ZayAndZay]

What the hell I can hear hissing so annoying!

[TheGoogoosh1980]

@ZayAndZay Some ghost sounds...hahhahaha

[Snoep76239]

Where in the video is that darn mouse? I can hear the thing but can't see him....

@Dorvell The kidney was from a teenage girl and it "became available" early on Saturday. By the time the hospital contacted me, it was Saturday evening. The kidney was deteriorating and it would only last so long. It was estimated that by ~6AM on Sunday it would no longer be viable.

[DorvellTStewart]

I'm curious. Why was there a twelve hour time limit on the kidney transplant? 

[dollydolittle182]

I'm scared of cops one time i said i hate cops right in frount of them i was 5 though :S

[loriann1237]

I LOVE THIS STORY!

[mridgewy]

I'm the son from this incident.

Yeah, the "we've got your kidney" thing was definitely a Huh? moment for my Dad. Frankly, the whole night was sort of surreal. And the editors even skipped the thunderstorm that the small plane had to fly through on the way back to Orange County. I do remember filming that bit on the tarmac at John Wayne airport after they filmed my cousin and I driving the streets around upper Newport Bay for a couple of hours (you can see some of that footage around 2:58).

[loriann1237]

@mridgewy I LOVE the story, how's your dad doing today! you are a hero for your dad, and I'm glad he received his kidney in time and that it worked out for you all!

[jtomally9681]

@mridgewy I'm glad your dad was as lucky as he was.

[ThePianoMasterz]

this is like some gta vice city stories mission, just it was a good thing they were doing, not a bad thing lol

[V904T]

Hey guys I can only hear from one of my earphones and all I hear on the other are hissing sounds anyone else have the same problem?

[MorikoNightdream]

@V904T yep, it's worse when it's speakers

[mangoliouskiwi]

Lol wow...I'd be like "wtf?" if I heard that from a helicopter. I'm glad that it turned out with a happy ending though.

[Thingsthatgoboom97]

[sctoiowa]

[GreenDayisAmazing]

[skyblue2567]

[subforsubx]

this eppisode put a smile on my face :)

[Rescue911Trooper]

I wonder why they repeat few seconds of scene when Charles is running to plane after he and his wife was interviewed?

[cajayson8301]

If I'm ever missing and need a kidney, I certainly hope they announce it like this! Damn they went to great lengths to find him. Good going!

[TheBeaver2010]

Dude, we got your kidney!!!Whooohooo!!

[gregorkrause]

this must be the cbs version because at 2:32 that scene isn't used where the 2 head to the red truck?

[molly1002]

"We got your kidney!!!" HAHA i'm sorry if i sound rude but that's funny!

[ShadowoOfBlood]

That does sound wierd, I'd be like;

"Uh, no you don't I still have 'em."

[Republican4U2Envy]

Yeah, if someone was yelling that out of a hellicopter I would be SO confused!

[TheGoogoosh1980]

@molly1002 So I was not the only one screaming out in laugh when that part was said...hahahah! I understand if people believed they were from another planet! haaaaaaaaaahhhahhah

[epcdaniel]
