Hats off to Jerry Anderson!

[DorvellTStewart]

Sorry if this may sound harsh or whatever, but in my oppinion, Jerry went out exactly the way he would've wanted to.

[Lxoxx]

why did his arm come off in the water?

[TEACHERTIGERSHAH]

When I fist watched this episode 20 years ago, my mother was really impressed that Jerry gave his life when those boys were not even his sons.

@TEACHERTIGERSHAH I did not know the man well, but I met him on several occassions. Knowing who he was made the rescue harder on us.

[TEACHERTIGERSHAH]

@coachpete35 You knew Jerry?

[Terestrasz]

Well at least he saved Poo.

This was the hardest loss of my 20 plus years of service.

@robfuturemd We worked this code for 105 minutes. IT was the longest and hardest code of my career. He was a friend and a true hero.

@DoomDodgers well dude, its FUCKING PAINFUL until your a few seconds from death.

[DoomDodgers]

@evian1230 That's why i said one of the most peaceful ways and not the most peaceful way. This apparently happened to me in egypt while i was diving. I pulled lungs full of water through a snorkle and panicked. I dont remember anything from that. All i can recall is going into the water and looking at the corals through my goggles and next thing i remember i'm back at the boat. Nothing inbetween.
