  • Why didn't they instruct her to try and give him CPR??

  • even pizza delivers can find houses better than some paramedics

  • @imurderragdolls That is so true!

  • @imurderragdolls That's because they've delivered 12 pizzas to the same house in the past month..

  • Sounds like a big problem.

  • im so sad

  • das bo shit.

  • the guy desearved it lmfao

  • @tomholjevac Fuck you asshole

    

  • @tomholjevac <------- Someone needs attention, and hooked on phonics.

  • A dispatcher is there to calm a person down but the appropriate thing to do would have been to ask if she knowsCPR and i she comfortable in doing it, as well ask her to check if hes breathing and has a pulse.

    A paramedic arriving on sceen with a patient that has no pulse depending on the down time goes right to CPR. CPR is one of the biggest things you can do when someones heart has stopped, dont even need oxygen anymore right of the bat just ompressions.

  • Ron Paul 2012 let's get rid of 911 big government is not the answer. private security companies are..!

  • @METALMAN4Wii, lol?

  • @TheBoxingCannabyte Socialism is evil I believe in Unregulated Free Market Capitalism. like if someone can't afford to hire armed guards to watch there house and property 24/7 they should die. the same goes for if they can't afford Health Care I wanta help them by making them work 4 jobs so they can feel safe and have private insurance do you get what I mean.? remember don't believe the Liberal Media like TYT there a bunch of Socialists who want the Rich to pay Taxes.!

  • this as to be fake why would they put this on youtube itsnot even real

  • oh shit, April 26th is my birthday

  • @pattyofurniture100 Actuall when we inhale, our lungs don't absorb all of the oxygen. So everytime we exhale, we exhale oxygen as well as CO2. That is why we breath into other peoples mouths during CPR

  • I deliver newspapers every morning & you wouldn't believe how many houses have NO numbers on them, absolutely nothing, it drives me nuts when trying to find a new customer sometimes. I can't believe some people don't care enough to actually put a stupid number on their home or on the curb or somewhere, it's really an assinine thing to not bother doing.

  • This is what happenes when you shoot a relative of a cop while on 911 asking for help. If you go to you tube Erie Parties /Joel Atkin there is the 911 call which is missing 20 to 30 seconds,a video of me telling what I want answers to,and below the video is the link to Face Book which has all the papers supporting my questions and what my son said happened that day. If you see self defence please send to as many people as you can. Stay safe out there. Thank You and God

    Bless!

  • interesting, our dispatchers use a card system and will do telephonic CPR and BLS until ems arrives. we also have received a grant to gps every house and make real nice map books that show where the house is.

  • boner anyone?

  • @HATExYOUxLOSERS thats not funny

  • @ff7walkthru neither is your face

  • @HATExYOUxLOSERS because that makes complete sense idiot

  • EVERYBODY SHUD LEARN BASIC LIFE SUPPORT

  • The worst part was I saw this happen in front of my 7 or 8 year old eyes. RIP Tosie June 13, 1995 - September 20, 2006. ( not as sad as the story on the vid tho)

  • @Hiway202 Hey, you have Hiway in your name. What a coincidence!

  • When I was 8, my house caught on fire. It was a fairly big house and we called 911. It took the half an hour to an hour to show up! We lost everything. Even one of our cats. Everyone in my family made it out safely and my dad almost died trying to save our cars. A piece of burning wood almost fell on him. It was literally a milasecond away from hitting him because the car stalled. My parents almost forgot about my 5 year old sister (who was mentally 2) and she could have died. The worst part wa

  • @Hiway202 Your parents are shit bags. They forgot about one of their children but, your dad tried to save the cars.

  • Scary, my mom had a heart attack in 2003, and she wasn't even 55 yet, could have been her...

  • i wanna cry

  • fact-911 operaters suck they ask you hundreds of un related questions, such as your name , or your age , the 2 main questions they should ask is the location and hwats going on not how old are you or who you are, that should be up to them when the paramedics done their job ,,

    a person can fucking die and they wouldnt give 2 shits

  • idk why they dont have GPS

  • When seconds mater, the police are only minutes away.

  • This kind of story really ticks me off. Things aren't made better, just more convoluted, as we 'progress'. People mistake complicated as better. Then everything gets caught up in red tape...

  • I know it's not the same, but i deliver furniture, and you wouldn't believe how many addresses are impossible to find cause of no visible numbers. Please put numbers on your mailbox or on the front of your house, maybe this will save your life one day.

  • If she was not performing CPR on her husband, then she should have been outside waiting for the ambulance so they could find the house. If you don't have your address posted on your house, how can you blame EMS for not being able to find you?

  • i havent seen a video posted in 2006 in a long time

  • ok I'm scared....I'm gonna look up family guy videos of quagmire having sex

  • This shouldn't happen to any one any more if the paramedics have GPS.

  • 2 weeeks after his death she went over to the dispatch caller and killed them alll . why the fuck didn't she drive em to a hospital.?

  • @AMAURIS966 you clearly know NOTHING about this kind of thing. the best option is to wait, an ambulance has medical equipment in it, a car doesn't. an ambulance can get to the hospital a hell of a lot faster than a car.

    pp.s. you really think she could lift him up into the car?

  • Wow this sucks i was watching funny 9/11 calls laughing and now this made me sad :( RIP

  • i'd be suing the county bankrupt.

  • sounds like somebody gots a lisp

  • why are people scared of death? breath

  • this video is dumb.

  • "Your responsibility to help us find your house?"

    Did you know that before being granted their license, London taxi-drivers need to memorize the 25,000 different streets of the city and the directional progression of civic numbers, so they can travel with the utmost efficiency.

    If taxi-drivers can do it, why can't you?

  • @Unicron4ever good question

  • I remember when my apt burned down someone called 911. They called them at 1:31am, by then only the front was burning no one else was aware of the fire. They then again called 911 at 1:43am because they were not there yet and neighbors were attempting to get everone one out and aware. The fire department arived around 1:48am. By then the apt were all burnt down my grandfather and 8 yo brother were dead and a handikept men. They were able to stop the apt building next to us from burning down to:(

  • THAT GUY HAS THE SAME BDAY AS ME!! except i wasnt born in 1958

  • When I called 911 when my dad was dieing, they coached me through cpr and I sent my sister to the end of the driveway to flag down the ambulance, the operator stayed on the phone with me until emt arrived. It took them 7 minutes to get there, but it felt like an enternity and he didnt make it. Im suprised she didnt stay on the phone with her.

  • Toughs Cops/Whatever Are very mean! I mean. C'mon!

  • :(

  • :(

  • you people smh.....cpr is not gonna help u if ur brain is frggin hemmorageing, !!! and where i live youd be lucky if them mofos reach in 15 minutes!! its not funny but some1s better off running from our hospital to the person in need cuz if u hear EMS commng behind you when driving, dont make no sence to pull over cuz if u do u might as well turn your engine off eat lunch nd hve a smoke is how slow they are! we make jokes over here tht if you get shot even in yur pinky toe youll still probly die

  • Thats why I learned First Aid CPR training!

  • my step dad died on our frount door step by an heart attack

  • why didnt that stupid operator bitch not give the lady instructions on how to administer CPR for fuck sake his life could have been saved

  • @TheTruthSlave because she's an operator not a paramedic.

    she is trained in keeping people calm and getting information, not giving medical advice.

    plus he was suffering from cardiac arrest which is a heart problem not a lung problem.

    cpr would have probably just caused more harm.

  • @iMoD190 operators are medically trained 2, the operator should hav instructed the lady on what do do.u have it all wrong, CPR= Cardiopulmonary resuscitation. cardio=heart... time is of the essence. if the patient is suffering from a suspected heart attack it is VITAL 2 start compressions immediately along with mouth to mouth resuscitation, there is a 5 min window b4 brain damage begins. i am trained in first aid & have had to use it twice in the last yr. u should learn 2, u could save a life

  • @iMoD190 Chest compressions are not for the lungs, it's for the heart. Chest compressions can help get the heart beating again, may also help circulation. Similar to a defibulator shocking the heart in order to get it to start beating.

    What you're thinking about is mouth-to-mouth, which is for the lungs.

  • @No1Complainer Except defibs don't restart hearts. They stop them fibrillating, make them beat with a natural, effective rhythm. Hence DEfibrillator.

    Zapping someone without a heartbeat won't do shit.

  • @KopperNeoman True, I misworded that.

  • @iMoD190 CPR is short for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, notice the word Cardio, Cardio (from Greek kardia - heart), idiot. This is why everyone should learn CPR. It's not just for drowning.

  • @iMoD190 CPR is indicated for Cardiac arrests too.. You see when you are having a cardiac arrest.. your heart's ability to pump blood is not functioning so we give out compressions to "push" the blood away and back to the heart. The latest update on compressions actually encourages compressions because it gives a better chance of survival.. for untrained people.. we encourage them to push hard and fast

  • @iMoD190 um... The "C" in CPR stands for Cardio. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation. It is meant to restore blood circulation my manually pumping the heart with chest compressions. CPR is absolutely helpful in saving the life of a heart attack victim. Your comment tells me that you are ignorant to what it actually is. I don't use the word ignorant to insult you. Just to point out that you need to know what it's for. I recommend that EVERYONE be certified. It only take a few hours.

  • @iMoD190 I hope no one has a heart attack around you or the 5 people who gave you a thumbs up.

  • @iMoD190 Actually, in the second call the woman says he's stopped breathing, which is a lung problem. That would have been the time to tell the woman to do cpr (a skill I wish everyone had) but as it was stated by a medic previously perhaps that dispatcher wasn't approved to do so.

  • @KatsWonderland Actually that's not a lung 'problem', it's death. He died and that's why he stopped breathing. Blood carries oxygen to and from the lungs, if blood is not flowing, you are not breathing well, and soon you are not breathing at all.

  • @Korinra You've missed the entire point of my comment. Had you taken the two seconds to read the idiotic comment I had responded to you would understand the comment I made. Instead you make yourself look a fool as the "info" you've shared has no bearing on what I was commenting on.

  • @KatsWonderland Ok, then do tell me how it doesn't apply. Clearly your comment made no sense, because what I took from it is that she should perform CPR, and I explained why that would not help. So please, explain what I missed in your post. Enlighten me.

  • @Korinra Yep, you completely missed the point and considering your continued attitude you're going to continue to be a snarky faux know-it-all so there's no point in explaining a thing to you. You keep up with your head up a certain orifice and you're going to continue looking a fool.

  • @KatsWonderland Haha ok, so I'm foolish for mistaking comments like "the woman says he's stopped breathing, which is a lung problem" for being about lung problems and how CPR would correct it despite death not being a lung problem. OK sister whatever puts the frills in your tutu, take care.

  • @Korinra Yep, you completely misunderstood the comment and made assumptions of my comment and the situation. Considering you have proved my statement that you will continue to be an asshat no matter what someone says to you just shows I was right in not bothering to explain the very simple concept laid out in my original comment. Hope you aren't having a hard time breathing what with your head up your backside AND your foot in your mouth. Poor dear.

  • @iMoD190 In the 1st phone call she states that he is having trouble breathing but is still responsive which would NOT require CPR but in the 2nd call she states that he has stopped breathing and is not responsive which WOULD require CPR to be performed on him. CPR might have helped this guy. CPR COULD NOT have caused more harm once he is unresponsive cause he's already "dead".

  • @iMoD190 I don't know if you are CPR certified, but if I remember correctly, CPR is an essentially life saving technique for heart attacks. Compressions keep the blood flowing when the heart has stopped, and the breathing gives the victim oxygen...just sayin.

  • @lpsoldier2938 what amazes me is that s/he's top comments. never count on people to save you from a heart attack, they don't even know what CPR is and yet start saying things like they really studied or experienced it. amazing...

  • @lpsoldier2938 CPR does NOT give anyone OXYGEN! It gives them CARBON DIOXIDE! The lungs cannot process CO2, the action of breathing into a victims mouth is simply the exact same as compressing the heart, it tries to get the lungs jump started again.

  • this is soo messed up

  • Little children...MMMMMM

  • oh my god. thats a fucking horror story

  • In soviet russia 911 call you

    Too soon?

  • it happens all the time so i dont trust 911

  • @littlebabygiggles08 yeah, it's terrible

  • r.i.p

    

  • Am I the only one crying? :S

  • Our fire department got a cut,and now they wont respond to our 911 calls,only some of em...And the cops wont come to our neighboorhood,because they wanna save gas

    -.-'

  • Ok first I am a 911 medic and firefighter my wife is a dispatcher. No it's not always easy to find a residence or vehicle without much information. Just calling 911 on a cell phone can give responders an area of about 10ft to 5 mile coverage area. If in the city that gives between 2-100 houses , or about 5sq blocks. If in the rural area that leaves a lot of options.

    Also, dispatchers can only provide information to a caller on 911 that is approved through their service wether is PD, SO, or jus

  • @mediccac Reealy

    

  • @SniperGhostWarrior10

    Do you care to add to the Reealy comment not sure where you are going for with that!

  • thats fuckd

  • This is why my father is dead now.

  • @Alleyana I'm sorry.

  • stylegirl, basic training could keep someone alive until the ambulance gets there. Also, clear directions and highly visible address indicators are your responsibility, can't rely your nearest cell phone tower location to get emergency crews to your door when houses surround you. Help yourself, why is this such a hard concept to comprehend? Cross street, house/car indicator(s), general directions. 911 isn't fucking magic.

  • thetanater, people give better directions to pizza delivery drivers.

  • Welcome to America, where the pizza guy gets to your house faster than emergency crews.

  • (punches xGREANSYx in the face as hard as possible)

  • That is f'd up

  • did he die?

  • Medic... Not ALL dispatchers are trained in CPR, for those that are they are certainly an asset, but I have worked in a county dispatch where NOBODY was trained in CPR except the officers. The instructions they were allowed to give were minimal. I do understand, so maybe you should quit assuming? Of course the woman is distraught and upset, but the first lesson in survival is to know how to help yourself. Don't rely on someone else.

  • @myxcure dont rely on someone else?!?!?!?! what the heck are you talking about?! if ANYONE you should rely on EMT's. theyre supposed to help you. thats their job. If everyone knew how to help someone after they've had a heart attack then maybe more of them would survive, and we wouldnt need EMT's.

  • P.S. and this is a very personal grievance, but GOD DAMN IT why do we have 2 trillion dollars to spend on Iraq but less than a million to spend on EMS integration into Cell phones.

    For FUCK'S sake. These kinds of medical incidents kill more people in a fucking WEEK than Al-Qaeda has in it's ENTIRE EXISTENCE,

    And yet the Middle East is where we spend our tax dollars. And yes you can make fun of me for being so fired up right now. My blood BOILED when I heard, "They can't find your house. "

  • If anything this video is a powerful piece of evidence that basic first aid should be taught to EVERYONE. I'm talking about a public schools class for high school freshmen that teaches, in detail, with the basics of emergency first aid.

    You can't even comprehend how many lives we would save and terrible injuries we would mitigate. I'll never understand why so few people go through the 4 hours of training necessary to gain certification in AT LEAST basic CPR techniques and the use of AEDs.

  • Why didnt she just say she would stand outside and wave them down or get help from neighbours?

  • @snoozingphil

    How would you know she didn't do that? In the last call they were far away so not sure how her waving outside her door would get the ambulance to see her if they were like 15 minutes away.

  • wow not properly addrest and what i would do in a situation i would probebly do  the excact same thig

  • Some of you guys are so insensitive...the woman was losing her husband, and all she could do is watch and hope for help to come. Don't you realize how helpless she must feel? Obviously some of us was never put in her shoes, but if my loved one was dying I'd be flipping out and wouldn't have a clear head either.. So really, lighten up. She lost her husband damn it.

  • In a perfect, flawless world maybe, but if you can't help yourself how can you expect other people to help you? People survived before 911 and emergency services were created, it's a device to help you, not make someone magically appear at your door and save your ass.

  • If the 911 center doesn't have someone trained in how to give CPR instructions or a manual to read to the caller, there is very little that a dispatcher can do, and if they are working alone in a call center and 911 is ringing, you might be SOL. Take a CPR class. Give specific directions to your house (4th house on the right with the dark red door). Common sense is beautiful, quit relying on other people to save your ass.

  • @myxcure

    But that is what they are payed to do....

  • @myxcure Talk about insensitive. Civilians AREN'T EXPECTED to know CPR, so 911 operators ARE trained in CPR and First Aid, some are also firefighters and EMTs. In the mindset she was in, with her dead husband in front of her, I'm sure it was a little difficult to think about specifics. You don't understand, so maybe you should just shut up ;)

  • i HATE that freaking music..

  • the paramedics i call are in a different city and they gt here in 1 - 2 mins

  • Wtf?

  • Sad video. I couldn' understand a single thingthe paramedic said.

  • herp derp

  • This makes me glad I live in a small town in which the entire fire department knows my family (most are related) and can get the EMTs here immediately.

  • Oh my god thats to far

  • That's really fucking sad. The paramedics take a long time to get to my house too sometimes. One time I was in a near hypoglycemic coma and it took them about 20 minutes to arrive. I went and laid down on my back on the porch--just in case I passed out so that someone could find me. I don't know if there just aren't enough in my town, if they have trouble with the address, or what exactly it is. There is nothing really to indicate that this call is staged (or 'fake').

  • im turning off my cell phone

  • JULY 17TH IS MY BIRTHDAY!

  • Only last week I saw an ambulance stop while the paramedic looked up an address in the street directory. Sucked in to anyone who has no visible number. Natural selection.

  • This is terrible

  • I dont know what you haters are talking about but this sounds real :/

  • this is fake, the operator would stay on the phone with the caller and tell her what to do to aid her husband until medics arrived

  • this was so sad...

  • i don't think it's as bad as a problem now thanks to amazing GPS

  • i suffered a stroke and the ambulance did not come for 90 minutes,and a few weeks before my daughter had a really bad ear infection and the doctor gave her medication that containing an ingredient which she was allergic too, and her condition became so bad i phoned emergency docs, and the medic who attended her so that the neck and throat area had swelled badly but he told her just to tuff it out.she nearly died. this is in scotland

  • Most comm centers have SOPs and that includes giving CPR instructions.

  • uh they couldnt look at the numbers on the houses around hers? im pretty sure 1375 comes after 1374.

  • BS, dispatch woulda talked thru cpr..

  • I'm scared. Alot. Here at 10 PM, where it's dark and stormy. Uhhh, wait, then why the heck am I watching zombie vids?

  • ehhhh... gps?

  • @lotusniamhmisa ehhhhh 2003?

  • Has she ever heard of CPR? Well, i will admit, she was panicking a lot. Hope that man is living large in Heaven.

  • very eerie video

  • Orange street? LOL xD

  • ems workers hang up on people every day and most disbatchers only go threw a little training.. i think that is a shame

  • ..... ok i think im gunna look up something else now at 2 AM .... oh look! news fails :D !!

  • i think after being told they are having trouble finding my home i would of went out and flagged them down if they was close or something or if not and seemed it was taking to long would of picked up the person threw them in car and put pedal to metal all the way to hospital

  • Ì like how you say a lot of EMS workers have commented that they think it is real while the opposite is happening. They don't hang up on people who call them with an emergency.

  • @ikkedoch But that's not the EMS workers saying that. Point is, all EMS workers admit that this happens. Number your house if you don't want this to happen to you or someone you love.

  • @bestvalue Or,have a map in your car and locate it yourself.

  • @bestvalue Is this actualy Real or is this Fake? Please Tell Me!!!! Thanks!!!!!!!!

  • @ikkedoch i hate the ems where i live cus they just sit at gas stations and long john silvers and stuff there face, and who has to pay for there job, me -_- actually my parents but still xD

  • I'm in the US Army and ALL of us have to learn Combat Lifesavers. All they are are like EMT's. We help the medic's out when there is no medic around in case of an injury and other emergency.

  • @hhds113 Thank you for serving our country. You give people what we all take for granted. Freadom. Thank you again. :)

  • It would be nice if the towns and cities place posts with the house number on the front lawns, provided by the town and cities of course on every home. And on Street signs place the number from the first house through the last house on that street. Also I would like to suggest to have place in every home are defibrillators. Everyone should go to a class to learn how to use one and also people should learn how to do CPR. Hopefully these ideas can help EMT's to save lives.

  • Anybody know if the creepy music is from a soundtrack or something?

  • IT'S THAT FUCKING BITCH'S FAULT FOR LIVING IN THAT STUPID LOCATION IN THE FIRST PLACE

  • @ouwetwarrior

    ur so insensitive. its not like it was just her home, it was her husbands as well. it was their decision and i dont think the location should matter. lots of other people live their too. its not like u even care in the first place what happened to them.

  • That poor man TT_TT the paramedics can be such assholes at times -:/

  • what the hell is up with the creepy ass music?

  • annoying orange street lol

  • Unfortunatlely, not all 911 centers give CPR instructions.

  • I got the chills!! D:

  • That is really disturbing

  • there is no house there dum dum dummmmmmm

  • this is scary  T T

  • why did you like thid video

  • Oh my god. If this is real, that is sad/scary shit. Then again, she remained calmer than if my wife was having a heart-attack.

  • My question is, Why isnt the 911 operator telling her what to do?? - They are supposed to talk them through CPR...

  • this happened to my dads father ... the paramedics called my dads house when he was like 15 and he was out side ; sleeping . Had no idea what was going on ; and they called and told them they had trouble finding were he lived and they needed the adress ; so my dad thought it was a prank call nd it sorta freaked him out so he hung up . The ambuilence didnt come till alot later nd his dad didnt make it /:

  • It's kinda hard to listen to the sound while your posting stupid words..

  • And the paramedics tried.

  • CPR you fucking idiot.

  • It scared me

  • I masturbated to every second of this video.

  • @cachoheartsvag What the hell bro?! That isn't funny at all.

  • this isnt real bc WHO WOULD PUT IT ON THE INTERNET!!!!! i mean the operator wldnt put it on here..and i REALLY doubt she wld put it on here!

  • @8dylandog, This is very real!

  • if you put tears of an angel song with this it sounds so sad

  • Thank god my son is fine. Point is.... its not there family, and for many (not all) it is just a JOB! I also do NOT feel these workers should be working full time, many times they sound tired, annoyed, bothered, frustrated, and completely over worked emotionally and psychically. Why not pay them more, give them less hours and offer more training. After all these calls are for people we love and aren't they worth it? I know my family is , i am NOT a 911 operator or an advocate. A system broken!

  • I know this is acting to bring awareness. This is my true experience with a 911 dispatcher. I called when my son phoned while visiting his father and asked me to come get him then the phone was dropped he was attacking my son , i dialed 911 to be transferred 3 times to other police stations he lived in a small community Wilmington, IL. After 10 minutes of being rerouted and threatened that i could call the police station myself if i didn't calm down, police arrive 37 minutes later......
