  • ouch that's got to hurt having 200 tons of glass falling on you you can get killed if it hits you. looks like these guys were cleaning up after a burglary. 

  • 480p!

  • WE NEED A AMBERLAMPS HERE RIGHT NOW

  • Plus, I wouldn't wear short sleeves, but a light leather jacket. Then again, they're professionals and shit does happen.

  • Damn. I would have removed it safely from 10' away with a dozen bricks, rather than trying to be neat about it.

  • she looks as if she stole her husband's clothes

  • :O

    I live like two hours from Silver Spring!

  • Yikes lost alot of blood? poor guy

  • wow that must rly rly hurt

  • @XxSharpshooter51xX ... theres no way it hurt when he first got cut. besides the initional adredaline flowing, the glass cut all the nerves but after ward it probably did hurt.

  • @bekimA16 bet it hurt like a sonofabitch a few days later

  • I work with the Medic that was highlighted in this video. He is a fantastic Medic still to this day.

  • can you put in Episode 626 where the man was injured in the warehouse accident in goshen, IN...thats where i live

  • I hope the people who do that work have something that pays for cases like this. They way most work places seem to be set up, it's as if they don't even give a hoot about their employees in such cases.

    It always made me angry. It happened at work, they need to pay for it, and if they're not interested in doing so they're jerks as far as I'm concerned.

  • They also have this thing called Quik-clot now, started by the Army and transferred to the civilian sector.

    The surgeon showed us what Quik-clot does when he was prepping a man for surgery who had received stab wounds to his abdominal area. W/out Quik-clot to stop a large portion of the bleeding, I don't think the guy would have made it off the table alive.

  • Dude I love to see people survive and the amazing storiesof survival and rescue. Thanks for all the videos.

  • The reason they didn't want to use tourniquets in the 80's and 90's is b/c there was a higher chance of losing the limb due to tissue necrosis (which occurs if you do the tourniquet the right way) and the time elapse before you could get the patient into the operating room. That's why they told you to record the time of day you applied the tourniquet.

    I was an Operating Room technician in the 90's, that's how I know that.

  • @vickiormindyb Very true. Tourniquets are a great way to control large amounts of blood. However, they should only be used in a have to case (Ex. someone's arm gets cut off) because w/o oxyegenated blood tissue begins to die within 10-15 minutes. If the patient is unconcious (asleep) you can leave the tourniquet on up to 2 hours. NEVER tie a tourniquet unless you have been trained to do so, or instructed to by a medical professional.

  • This reminds me of the mechanical injury call we responded to. It STILL freaks me out, and I've been a medic for a while.

    He got his arm caught in a kind of machine press and the press literally ripped his arm away from his body before they could turn it off.

    It's one of the goriest things I've ever seen.

    They NEEDED to put a tourniquet on it. THESE days, they'd tell you to tourniquet the wound. And they don't use MAST anymore b/c of the controversy, which is stupid. IMO

  • @vickiormindyb Why did they tell them not to apply a tourniquet in this case?

  • @CheekyThrill Because the Doctor's Panel, who are in charge of the rules, were more concerned with losing limbs back then. Surgery has advanced to the point now that, even if your blood supply is cut off for 15 minutes, they can reattach your limb successfully along with making sure you can move it too.

  • @vickiormindyb Wow, more concerned with losing limbs than bleeding out? Yikes!  Well, thanks for the answer.

  • @CheekyThrill They were more concerned about the massive infections that can result from a lost limb and then lead to sepsis, an infection of the entire body that's easy to lose control of. They didn't have antibacterials then that are as good as the ones they have now. But I forgot to mention that, b/c I see it every day. It's second nature to me.

    Most people have no idea how dangerous bacteria can really be.

  • @vickiormindyb Oh, I gotcha. See I'm a fairly new nurse (about 4 years) and so that type of thing just doesn't enter my mind, since I'm so used to having the antibiotics and such, know what I mean? Thanks for explaining that to me! :)

  • haha he said it can hurt you badly! at 1:54 and then the guy gets severly cut!!

  • I think that if a big piece of glass needs to be removed and it won't be re-used anyhow, they should just tell everyone to stand back and then throw a brick at it or something! Little pieces, take a vacuum and clean them up, for big pieces, pick them up with gloves!

  • Ow!

    

  • I knew plate glass can cut you severely. That segment is an example of it.

  • welcome back? where did you go?

  • OMG!!! I know where Silver Spring , Maryland is!!!!

  • he was lucky the glass did not take his arm clean off on impact

  • I can't believe they aLL didn't have safety glasses and gloves on. A couple fo the guys did not.

  • 4:46 wow, I'm impressed. My only major criticism for this series is the fact that they always show responders running to the scene, which is usually inaccurate. In this case, they were accurate of their portrayal of how cautiously and calmly we usually approach scenes, even when they are serious.

  • @ICEMANof92 Right, I would think you'd like to get there as fast as possible but at the sametime keep your adrenaline in check so that you can focused on the job at hand so that its done as quickly and safely as possible.

  • Why did they turn the glass sideways? I guess the pressure caused it to break.

    Their is another segement uploaded on YouTube where a plate of glass fell on a worker.

  • @davinp I have seen that segment also

  • welcome back and thank-you for posting more of Rescue 911 I been waiting for so many day for this movies to come.. I know there is plenty of more and I am still searching for many of these movie clips

  • @telephofee It shouldn't be a big thing to worry about because I think most windows have laminated glass now.

  • Thank you so much BeatleMoe. Glass will cut you so be careful. It's not a complaint.

  • Great segment! I'm so glad he pulled through! Thanks for posting, Zach.

  • this is the adult version of "Heart o'glass" lol because his condition was critical like the girl's condition and the accident and sound of the glass breaking sounds exactly like the segment on #322.

  • @gregorkrause I imagined that happened to me except I was 25 which is how old she'll be in 2011. My whole life flashed before my eyes.

  • btw the other segment is definitely a brother to this one, this one is a sister segment meaning same type of accident.

  • My friend got nerve damage in 2001 and still can't use most of the parts that were damaged.

    He has to wear special gloves to be able to use his hands right.

  • wow new episode :D for me

  • God at 5:00 I know it's a reinactment but those paramedics shouldn't just be dragging along like that...

  • glad to have you back

  • Man, that was a real nasty accident. Probably will take Dan awhile to get fuction in his arm after that glass cut he had.

    Other than that. great segment.

  • Shouldve just thrown a hammer. Small pieces, safe and good!

    Always have some electric tape and a good belt that can be used all the way down.

    Then you can put on some REALLY good preassure!

    And they never show the scars. Pft.

  • @Serostern true, although you want to avoid using a tourniquet at all costs, because it usually means loss of the limb.

  • @ICEMANof92 Not true. A tourniquet RARELY (if ever) results in the loss of a limb, and are standard procedure for Paramedics these days.

  • @tramajala with all due respect I am an emergency medical technician and tourniquets are applied as a LAST resort when direct pressure on the wound, elevating the injured extremity, pressure bandage application, and pressure application to a pressure point have all failed. Tourniquets are considered a LIFE over LIMB measure as they cut off almost all circulation to the part and can very well result in loss of the limb. They are rarely used as the other measures I described above usually work.

  • @ICEMANof92 That's just another in the long list of examples of people on YT, who think they know what they're talking about when they don't. Even when they DO know, their responses are those of someone with a mental age of less than 4. I'm so tired of it I refuse to answer comments from people I haven't personally preapproved.

  • @vickiormindyb well said :)

  • @ICEMANof92 my dads a firefighter and he told me that they never use a tourniquet unless they absoloutly have to

  • @powerwindowsrush thats exactly right.

  • This show has such realistic reenactments and recreations. That blood looks so real. When I started watching this show as a kid, I didn't know about recreations and all that, but now as an adult, I look at episodes of this show and think things like wow, this is a reenactment or how did they recreate that accident?

  • ...thank you :)

  • Can you Please Post 911 Suicide Son?

  • Finally, I hardly wait until yu upload a new video. anyway thank you for upload.
