911 Calls

Alright, the question is: did you ever dial 911? If so what was the reason? How did you feel at the moment?

I, myself, have never dialed 911.

Stupidly, as a very young child I did.

why did you carl? and what was everyones reactions?

I have called many times.

The most recent time was for a dumpster fire in the barracks parking lot that happened while I was on duty.

The worst was when we had a drowning in the pool that I lifeguarded at.

My mom fell down the steps, age 10, i was so scared i had trouble remember her age. and it was 4 o clock in the morning i was only awak from deep sleep for about 3 mins. Adrenaline is amazing.

Sat patricks day i had to call 911 because my friend had a seisure/concussion from jumping off the roof onto a trampoline. Blood/vomit was everywhere.

Accidently dialed 911 while dialing 941

accidently dialed on and old rotary phone.

Oh, boy a story I get to tell. I was at a gas station in my town and was probably 6 at the time. There were some Kansas City Royals baseball players there signing for autographs. There was a long line and my mom and brother were with me. I got curious and dialed 911 thinking that you would need a quarter to call them. I got a guy and he said the 911 thing, something like, "This is the police department, what is your emergency." I hung up emediately and was freaked out. About 20 seconds later the guy that I'm guessing owned the gas station came out and said "I got a call from the cops and they said someone called from here." And then he started laughing and everyone else was and I was really scared and embarrased. Then my mom turned around (she didn't see me call) and said, "I hope that wasn't you." I told her I didn't. 

True story.

 My experience as a child was actually simmilar to that. Except it was outside the Fort Peck Dinner, and there was no line.

Did he like...drive through a window and have a wreck in your basement?

It could never be worse than some 16 year old kid flying through your window and blowing up your house.

that's legit, it probably had rabies.

i called when i was about 13 when we got rear-ended, and my mom was cursing out the lady who hit us. then i called again like 2 Christmases ago because i was at a party and someone there was having breathing issues and  was sweating and all that nonsense. i'm a true hero.
