I have worked in the fire service for 31 years and fulfilled every roll from probationary firefighter to Chief, first responder to paramedic, and student to instructor at our US National Fire Academy in both volunteer and career roles. I say this because I want to make clear the experience from which I'm about to say this: Dr. Simon Brown and Dr. Davidson are a British national treasures. I have worked with some damn fine trauma specialists, but have never, ever watched ones so cool and professional assess and deliver care so quickly and effectively in the field as that which they delivered in this episode. First rate work by all in your air ambulance service, but he is just a step above.

I know I'm really late here but a similar thing happened in my country. A parachutist fell from 4000m because both the primary and secondary parachute failed. So plummeting down towards solid ground he just accepted that he was going to die and decided to just relax. Somehow he fell onto a safety grid of some sort that moderated the fall and he survived with minor injuries. He broke an arm and had bruises but that was it. It was a pure miracle and it wasn't his time to go that day.

The way the paramedic handles the panicky mum at the traffic accident is formidable. I've been in his shoes a lot of times and can just tell you it's very difficult to talk panic away at an accident scene. He knows the doctor has hands-on with the patient and handles the mum instead. Bravo! It's so easy to underestimate the value and importance of showing care for the relatives on scene if possible. It can be equally traumatic for them standing helplessly by the injured. I'll use this example to show my colleagues.

The few working brits are waaaay overtaxed as it is. However, perhaps the elite could be more sane and divert a few million pounds per month to air ambulance, instead of their efforts to destroy UK.

This has become my favorite KZread channel to binge watch and I love this series. Thank you for uploading such great content. 😁

I'm so impressed by the professionalism and calm of the amazing teams. It's pretty sad to hear they're primarily funded by donations, when they seem an imperative healthcare service. I'm glad we hear updates on the patients taken by air, but wish we also were briefed on the others involved in the incidents and taken via ambulance.

I think people who do this for a living are truly a blessing. Saving someone’s life is the best thing you could ever do & i tip my hat to ALLLLL of them

I loved the way Dr. Dave is with his patients. Very tentative, carrying, calm and patient. If he's as wonderful a person as he is a doctor he is one person I would treasure. And I love Jane and Andy's personalities. I'm from Pennsylvania and I am addicted to your show now.

when that farmers wife kissed him when he went off to the heli, hit me hard. it reminded me before my dad left in an ambulance to the hospital of how i hugged him, not realizing it was the last time i will ever see him. he was calm and we thought he will be fine, a few days and he would be back to celebrate Christmas and new years with us but unfortunately things did not happened this way.

I'm still waiting to do Fire 1 and Fire 2 training but feel real good about being there to protect and rescue the people who live in my city. A great thing already happened a month or so ago at my friend's bicycle shop. A high school age boy was in there and talk turned to my jobs. I told him my regular paying job is corrections officer at a prison. His eyes got big. Then I told him my other job is firefighter. He got excited, very happy and thanked me for everything I do. I told him I haven't had a chance to get through basic and intermediate training yet. He said I'm still a firefighter and still do that work. That young human is very right and what he said to me made me feel the best I've felt in a long time.

Buuuut, ketamine is certainly better than nothing & necessary in such situations!!!

I know some cases turn out sad but it's wonderful to know that you get out and do the very best you know how to do, and that's amazing. There has been 3 generations of medical people in my family and I'm proud of each and everyone who put others before themselves. Thank you!

I just love the British doco's - so good

Awesome video-excellent treatment by a doctor and a fast flight to the nearest hospital saves so many lives. Ambulance and paramedic crews also do a great job but the speed of transport is vital to get someone to a hospital fast for that "golden hour."

Little Oliver was so brave! I broke my arm when I was the same age and I was passing out all over the place. He’s awesome

38:04 this reminds me of the ambulance crew who was responsible for my transfer between my oncology department and the university hospital for my last stage of cancer treatment when i was 6. He said “are you excited and do you want my colleague to turn the sirens on” well 6 year old me couldn’t wait to hear the sirens. Paramedics who help children like this deserve honours, they’re the best.

I'm working to get my paramedic license in the states, and I've gotta say, I've always looked up to flight care professionals. Fingers crossed I get the chance to earn a part on such a wonderful team someday. That would be the dream for sure.

I was scared and in so much pain and after they loaded me up they were just gossiping about someone's wedding. I was moaning and they told me they thought my moans were a little excessive. I had a concussion, broken arm, lower leg and ankle were broken. I was bleeding from cuts and asked to have my eyes wiped so I could see. Not one of them helped me. They should get new jobs.
