Wanna see something scary?

I just went to the dollar movie to see "The Collector" the movie was ok.

But it was the last scene where the EMT was transporting and .........

It should be on netflix or hulu but it definatly worth a visit to the dollar movie

(Its also kinda scary that the pt got creamed by a PD patrol car and WASNT cSpine, backboarded or nothin!!!!!)

when has ems been demonstrated properly in movies.

I love Live Free and Die Hard at the end. 2 gun shot victims, walking around between ambulances with medics not seeming to care too much.

Haven't you ever watched the show Trauma?

Trauma is 100% dead on accurate.

No joke sir. I learned a LOT from that show. Like the fact that it is 100% okay to bring a mother into an ambulance/helicopter with their critically injured son. They can't get in the way. They can only help!h34r:

the only accurate depiction Ive seen in a blockbuster was at the end of Phonebooth... but it was minimal so they couldn't really screw it up

Again, watch the last scene of "The Collector" movie. And EMT's worst fear, an uncontrolled moment

I work for a private ambulance company and we do alot of movie shoots. It's funny how they tell you what to do. They want to make it look super critical! We had to run into an accident scene when everything was still on fire.....!
