What a man ! He took it like a champ. When he said " yeah its alright " it was obvious he wasnt ,he was just tryinh his best to keep it together and be strong and just do what he was asked

My dad, 63, was painting, fell off ladders and went right onto a bannister, broke 3 ribs. He'd covered himself in paint, so stripped off and got into clean clothes, cleaned up as much of the mess as he could in the pain, walked to the bus stop, got the bus home, walked upstairs, had a shower, then as soon as he sat on the bed to put underwear on he couldn't move, the excruciating pain became too much, and from there an ambulance had to be called. The older generation are just absolute machines. Meanwhile, my mum was fretting more over the fact they were getting new carpet getting put in the next day and needed to take the old carpet up still and move the furniture out. Only at that point did she call me and my sister to help. We sorted that whilst my mum sorted the ambo out 🤣

Thank God for these skilled emergency team, and helicopter crew, that will help so much for there patient...

What a strong man, helped my amazing staff. Although I wish these clips had a follow up of the outcome

Many kudos to all the emergency services - they all deserve a payrise !!

Rib injuries are brutal

I once broke one rib coughing from a very bad cold and never forgotten the pain from that never mind the trauma this poor man has gone through.

They said the log splitter got wedged by a tough log and instead of splitting it, it shot out and either struck him in the chest or back. You probably meant the extent of his injuries. My bad

Hope he's feeling better now

Ye..ouch!

Poor guy!

*patient screaming in agony* "was that hurting?"

Surprised the evac crew didn't have a litter to carry him to the chopper.

Does anyone know what was the prognosis? Did he have cracked ribs etc

Updates after videos please

Wow, that’s awful. Poor guy

He looks good for 74!

We want this kind of healthcare in India...

I think a broken rib or 2? What was the outcome

So what’s the result?

Me too! Won't watch if you don't tell use what happened 😮

They don't have a stretcher for the guy?

In my opinion, working as a paramedic, to transport him the way they did was absolutely wrong. Moving a patient like this and making them walk whilst they are complaining about back pain which makes a back injury fairly likely is not great. Getting him onto a scoop stretcher and carrying him to the helicopter would have been safer and required less movement. It also would have spared him of the pain he experienced here. Sure, it would take longer and a lot of man power, but there was an ambulance crew on scene and the pilot as well...

Guys....full episode is on youtube! Lol

Morphine isn't a great drug due to nausea and low blood pressure. Fetanyl and ketamine are much better for pain.

@@divisiongaming4795 UK practice is progressive and in the UK, we are moving away from collars because research shows they are ineffective. It’s better to allow the patient to guard their own c-spine. They won’t move in a way that hurts them. HEMS crews are also able to clear the C Spine on scene. Back boards are also not used in this situation because research shows them to increase the chance of injury.
