Good work and a great debrief video Brent. As an ex Careflight pilot I would recommend carrying a GME MT610G 406 or similar. If Craig had a critical injury then 2~3 hours is too long. An EPIRB is the best option if serious (cutting out the handlers and human error) going direct to AMSA in minutes, AMSA will brief the pilot (rotary wing or fixed wing for remote AUS) personally and launch. fyi We never monitored UHF as the cockpit chatter is already too busy. We did monitor and home in on 121.5 ; that often making the big difference when things are really bad or dark (built into a 610G). Motocross boots for the win! Lat/Long formats make no diff to HELO crews who can convert that on the fly.

Hey there ART, thanks for your note. One of the riders did have a PLB, but I'm not sure if it had the same specs as the one you cited (I will research it). Thanks for the heads-up on UHF. I also learned about the 121.5 homing beacon.... very useful. As for boots, yes, I wear hard MX boots. Another friend also broke his leg wearing the same soft Forma Adv boots. So I agree with you.

An excellent video. Thank you. I could not agree more with this comment. A GPS PLB will instantly report your position down to a circle of error in the order of 10 metres and cut out the middle person who may well not understand a GPS coordinate format which appeared to be the case in this instance. It is important to maintain PLB registration, have reliable emergency contacts detailed in your registration and let your emergency contacts know what your travel plans are. They will be contacted by AMSA when the PLB is activated. You can also log into the AMSA beacon website and register your travel plans/itinerary.

Well done Brent. Hope it goes viral for the benefit of rider education and donations to Careflight.

I’m a retired Air Force Combat Rescue guy. I’m 73 now and ride solo in very remote areas on my Husqvarna 701. I’ve been using a SPOT locator for years but can see I need to step it up to an Inreach.

@brentbat

Жыл бұрын

Yeah, I love the comms capabilities of the Inreach. I did some solo riding in remote areas of South Australia earlier this year on my 701 and it is just reassuring knowing that you have the communications capabilities as well as the SOS. If I had a mechanical issue, I wouldn't want to hit the SOS button, but I would need a recovery vehicle.

The lack of Lat Long understanding, was really amazing. Yes (what three words) is quite a remarkable invention, simple but highly accurate for anyone who has the app.

Just my 2 cents. Firstly, great video, excellent performance in an emergency and great to stop and review afterwards. I'm former CFA and SES, have worked a lot with Air Force and Westpac rescue choppers and currently work in remote areas of NSW and was involved in our government department emergency procedures for remote workers. I have been first on scene to a number of accidents and have also had trouble getting emergency dispatcher to understand Latitude and Longitude info. FWIW I will start with the PLB or InReach. An accident like a broken leg can quickly turn into a serious event if major blood vessels are involved, hit the button first, before you do anything else. This will start the process of rescue fastest with a recorded position automatically logged in the system. People are often hesitant to set off a beacon wondering if it is really needed, just hit it, you will not get in trouble for it. Second, phone 000 as you did, relate all the necessary information as this will be soon combined to the alert you have set off. If you don't have an emergency beacon, use what3words in addition to lat and long numbers, always have the emergency plus app on your phone which will give you this, providing both will immediatly show if something has been transcribed incorrectly. Keep your first aid skills current and have a decent kit. If you get the opportunity to do a remote areas first aid course, do it. But again, great work and kudos on the video as many people have never been in such a situation and getting a conversation going that all ADV riders should be having.

Thanks for your note. I agree with you totally. If I were having a do-over I would have triggered PLB immediately and then used the phone.... and/or Inreach. We now have What3Words on our phones.

Great video. Was never bored. Incredible editing. Wishing your friend a speedy recovery

We had a mate like that too. We raced Motocross, Short Circuit and Enduro most weekends all over NSW. He always crashed and I think I knew the ER at every hospital in NSW. He had no fear...ie, no caution. In the end he gave it away. As current RFS in a regional area, I would have hit the EPIRB as well as the Sat Phone. The UHF channel is Ch 11 to call, and they will then ask you to go to Ch5 or 35.

As a paramedic with 25 years' experience, I've called for the chopper probably about 180-200 times I guesstimate. You've turned a routine job into a very entertaining and well-presented video. Well done, and I wish the rider a full recovery. What's really fortunate is that being on the east coast of Australia, you're guaranteed world class paramedics to treat you.

This is brillantly showing that if you have a serious accident you will be dead before help will arrive. This is a very disappointing performance and you should ask your operators to show initiative when there is a problem.

Great video Brent. As a former SAR helicopter pilot (10 years SAR). Providing a lat/long should always work, in fact it used to be the primary method of navigation for us - just plug it into the navigation computer and Bob’s your uncle. Also (as an adventure rider myself) I carry a smoke beacon to pop when the helicopter is in sight / audible). They’re small and light but VERY effective. I would be hesitant to use a flare because you don’t want to set fire to the neighbouring scrubland! Anyway, I hope Craig is making a speedy recovery and keep those amazing videos coming! Cheers!👍

Same situation with my Dad in remote Nevada. We were riding-not racing, the Vegas to Reno route for his 65th birthday. He fell outside Hawthorn and fractured his leg. When we contacted EMS with our coordinates. They had no idea what we were talking about. Finally they located someone in a volunteer Search and Rescue group who had a hand held Garmin GPS. It took hours for them to locate us and evac him. We too had a emergency locator beacon. I finally had to tell the EMS operator that it was getting dark and cold. And that if the search and rescue group wasn’t there by dark I was setting off the beacon. To their credit, the Volunteer group got to us 30 minutes before sunset and evacuated my Dad and even his bike. All with a hand held GPS! We were grateful and supplied that volunteer search and rescue group a vehicle mounted Lowrance GPS system to help out the next injured rider.

A wonderful job to all involved in the ride and the emergency for Craig. The incident with the Emergency Service Phone is a damn S**T and has been getting worse for the past 20 years. Hoping that Craig is healing well. This group is a great bunch of blokes and deserves😅😄 a pat on the back for their good sense of humour and for helping each other no matter what is going on.

Brent, what a great adventure episode once again. So much to learn here. Your skills shine through with beautiful footage and great story telling. It's very important for all of us to see just how fast things can go wrong. You guys were basically chugging down the trail and a little puddle of mud created complete chaos for Craig. You had all the tools but a small error in communications lead to a delayed response, and as you said, luckily Craig did not have a life threatening injury. I'm so glad this was only a detour for all of your team and nothing worse. Surely Craig will be back in the saddle and laughing down the trail soon. I recently upgraded my Sidi Adventure 2 boots to the more Motocross boot the Sidi Atojo as I too took a few falls this summer and felt that I was under protected in the lower leg and ankle area. After watching Rider Down I'm certainly happy I went for this upgrade. Cheers and thanks from Vancouver.

Emergency services use a decimal version of LAT / LONG. Your co-ordinates would be 32.52722222S 150.12222222E. Unless the operator knew how to convert the co-ordinates the system wouldn’t allow them to be entered. As a former police trail bike rider I had to deal with this issue ALL the time

Thank you, @BrentPearson; fun and educational. Praying that Craig is recovering well. Disclaimer: I'm not EMS or adventure type, though I was 4 years (30 years ago 😬) with a volunteer fire brigade in the Wellington area, NZ. I have done several outdoor pieces of training. I am happy for correction, not criticism. These are my observations. A suggestion for using the mirror to attract rescuer attention. It would be a two-handed job. Mirror in one hand close to your face, the other hand stretched out towards the rescuer thumbnail up over your target, and flash the sun over the thumb (direction (u/d - l/r) not important, but keep consistent). The way you can flash SOS (. . . - - - . . .) and know they can see it. PLB every time you are off the beaten track, especially if there is difficulty understanding where you are. As noted by others, quicker response time. Letting the call centre know the registration number might help link into the AMSA system. (I'm in NZ, so unsure. But it would be the same deal here in NZ.) I was also thinking that if the call centre knew you had UHF radio's on you and a call sign (you listed early in the video), they might have been able to pass that to the helo crew to try and contact you when they could not locate you. On the DMS/decimal debate, whatever you have to hand should work. The What3Words app is now downloaded to my phone. Knew of What3Words via browser (map.what3words.com/), but not the app. A big thank you to the emergency service personnel (call centre and "out in the thick of it") for putting your hands up to help when needed. Oh, and a plug (no, I'm not paid) for getting a Guardian Angel (www.guardianangeldevices.com/outdoor-led-light/ probably the Snowmobile Light for adventure riders). 5mi visibility (Elite, 3mi for Micro) and usually have an SOS mode. Thanks to @RonPratt for putting me onto these devices.

5 and 35 are reserved for emergencies, but 35 is not a transmit channel for emergencies. The 5 & 35 are the tx/rx channels for duplex or to state in a fiffeeent way when you are on ch5 duplex you transmit your voice on that channel through a repeater and the signal (call) you get back is on the frequency reserved for ch35. For those who do carry a handheld radio if you have no luck on 5dup you can try and find another repeater channel by pushing the ptt button and if on release you get a tone or squelch noise then you are on a repeater channel and you have a chance of someone monitoring any of those 1-8 duplex channels.

Great vid. I've had a similar experience with a person on the other end of a 000 call when in a far more dire situation. The person I spoke to obviously had no local area knowledge and were reading through a cue card which I think wasted valuable time in a life threating (ending) situation. I felt pretty helpless and enormously frustrated in that situation - and again watching your vid when you were trying to communicate with the operator and things weren't quite lining up on their end. Well done for calling out the issues with 000 during the vid. Absolutely agree. Goldy will ride again, and that's a good thing.

It is impossible for the call takers to know the local areas, they work from one of 4 control centres and if the most local does not take the call within a reasonable time it will be diverted. So as an example, someone in Newcastle might be answering a call for someone in Dubbo. The cues they work of are designed to capture the most important details first and catch words to trigger the highest level response first. Unfortunately though this can seem like an eternity. If minor delays occur due to this script which takes a minute or two to be read results in the passing of a loved one, it is safe to say that person was never going to make it. Having spoken to Brent the issues faced were training related faults that lead to huge delays that cannot be explained.

@coover65

Not a "cue card" per se, but what's referred to as script. part of the AMPDS system. In a life-threatening situation, you'll get the dispatcher getting a crew rolling while the call taker is asking more questions. the crew then gets more updates as they come to hand. The ones with local knowledge will be the attending crews, not a comm centre member hundreds of kilometres away. I can understand it may seem frustrating when comms asks you so many questions, but it's all part of the process.
