Its a worldwide platform so I do not know where people are from or areas they might be familiar with. Happened near Braham. Being rural, I am not sure if it is part of the city or not. Braham Fire/Rescue was the department on scene along with local and State Police
You wouldn’t care if it was you or your love one. Be real,have ever worked a crash? Seeing the pain and injuries in someone and it doesn’t effect you then your a cold person
@@codyflowers8758 I have worked crashes as a matter of fact. Two years as an EMT. Fact is those medivac flights are $20k+ a pop. Not covered by insurance either. Often they are no faster than an ambulance either. People get financially ruined by these costs.
@@TheBeingReal I don't care about the price. They're not usually faster than an ambulance, especially in remote areas. Millions of people live in remote areas and its more than an hour drive from our town to a major trauma center in London. A helicopter can make that trip in 25 mins.
Fun fact: The pilots that fly these things aren't allowed to see the patient, they don't want personal feelings to get in the way of doing dangerous maneuvers to get to the hospital asap
The pilots are the ones who put the patient in the heli, and they will never do anything actually dangerous in the name of saving time, even in an emergency like this (because if it actually was dangerous, there would be risk involved that could likely injure/kill the pilots, the patient, or people on the ground/cause substantial damage, ie a crash)
That's sort of true. Some agencies have a policy where you don't know any information about the patient *until* you commit to a landing, to prevent risky landings. Depends on the agency though, and this isn't super common anymore.
Great catch! That blue bird looks great against the overcast sky!
I'm sorry to hear about the fatality.

I'm 30 miles south of Braham. This bird probably flew right over my house.

I couldn't see the county or city on the pickup that's why I asked. Have you been down in the cities covering any of the chaos?
Isanti County I think.
No reason to take victims I gues?
??? They transported from the scene.
@@4fpmlinksonly831 oh I never saw them load victim 🤯
@@TRUTHandANSWERS they skipped that part (probably for privacy and Hipaa laws)
$20k a pop for that heli ride.

completely wrong
They're mature professionals dealing with people they don't know... There is no emotional connection only a job that needs to be done.

The three main ones in this state the patient is right beside the pilot.
