911 Reunion After 20 years

Kyle Bennett, a student at Covington NEMSA, happened to see a picture from 1991 of William Shatner, then host of Rescue 911, on our timeline at the Academy. Kyle then tells the story of how he was on a Rescue 911 re-enactment when he was just 17 months old because he almost died after being bitten by a cottonmouth. Acadian Ambulance didnt cover St. Tammany Parish 20 years ago, but after a little research it was found that the medic who responded now works for Acadian and has for the last nine years—Paramedic George Schwindling.

yeah it is and dave the site founder of the rescue911fanclub should've thought of a column called "where are they now".

I wonder if amanda collins from "Cpr baby " is now a medic or pediatrician or a dispatcher?

[SassySweet24]

Awe..That was very touching and that another good reason that "Rescue 911" should be brought back to T.V so it can inspire more young people to become great things! I am glad that Kyle got to meat his rescuers 18 years later!

This is a great example of a "where are they now video" where we can see whatever happened to these 911 victims..

Way to go Kyle!
