For a man's heart to have to be shocked that many times and still survive is absolutely a miracle!
Wow. The longest CPR I saw a patient survive was just over 60 minutes. He had a significant brain injury from lack of oxygen and left hospital in a wheelchair after a 3 month icu stay. I've never seen or heard of a patient who survived being in arrest for that long, been shocked over 20 times, and lived. The fact that he got to go home, with minor if any disabilities, is a miracle. Great work from the team. Damn
WOW, I thought Tim passed away? I'm happy for him and his family that he survived thanks to the Air Ambulance team for not giving up.
The Hungarian doctor is excellent. Love from America. That cardiac arrest save was a miracle.
that's a true friend right there - getting the close up shot of the dismembered foot for his buddy when he wakes up in hospital
Air ambulance teams are just amazing, so much pressure and responsibility, and they keep on doing it, saving so many people who would have died without them getting there. And yes, kudos to the Hungarian doctor for his determination, I hope he never changes. Love seeing the teams in action and it really puts life into perspective.
Dr. Hawes is fantastic. I don't think there is anything that can stop that unyielding optomism she has! Such a great asset to the medical profession.
I’m crying for the last dude! I thought he wouldn’t make it and when I saw he did I balled my eyes out in complete shock and amazement! 😢 😃
Me too!!!
same.. I would have bet my life savings on him not making it. I am so happy that he did. That is a testament to modern medicine. He shouldn't have made it, and yet he is still around to tell the tale. I am so happy for him!
@@jonbird6566 a testament to determination by the medical team.
@@jogrant3851 No doubt!
My friend had a similar injury from a bad landing on a motorbike jump. He didn't crash and even rode the bike over to the medical tent. The full impact of the landing went into his foot, turning everything from mid-shin down into dozens of pieces of bone shrapnel. They should have amputated, but tried some stupid heroic surgery. He was left in constant pain and never walked on it again.
Wow....the stuff they show is borderline gory but i cant get enough.lol
What a great surprise that tim survived and instead of calling 911 he text his wife to say "i think im dying but i love you"!!!
Happy new years everyone
Prehospital blood transfusion and TXA...! That's fantastic
And i can't believe golfman is survive wow.....
It's incredible that Tim survived! What dedicated people to have persevered with the shocking and chest compressions. Heros!
Having such a team is just being lucky 🍀 many would have given up and call it👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Go Tim, Go! Amazing he made it...
Yikes I was not ready for the motorcycle foot injury
it was so great that tim survived. you said his name WAS tim and i was like omg he passed away, then i seen he survived and it was truely such a great feeling. i’m happy he has a second chance at life and his wife and him can still live happy
I was sure the heart attack would have died .. its nice he didnt and had such a good sense of humor.
It was that automatic chest compressor that kept Tim alive. It is not likely that the group would have kept trying for so long if they had to keep doing manual chest compressions. I am not criticizing anyone or how they did their job! But to keep CPR going for over an hour, by hand, would be utterly exhausting. I have never seen an auto chest compressor before. I am in USA. Do we have those here?
Yes.
Yep, in the US it’s called a “LUCAS”
Yes. My dad was put on one. His heart kept stopping.
Yes. I have an autopulse on every unit of mine just like this video.
What is really cool about the LUCAS is that it sits further up on the chest and the patients hands can be attached to it. It kind of looks like they are hugging it.
I love all medical videos.
Oh my!!!! Tim survived!! What a blessed miracle. Thank God for all involved and for them not giving up. God is The Almighty Physician.
Who gave him the heart attack?
No, the air ambulance team is the almighty physician!!
If there is such a thing as a god he is an awful designer and an evil and cruel being.
Great job. Keep it's up.
I'm so happy for Tim and Jan! Congrats to the entire medical team!
Also yeah I get it Cain, ouchhhhh
Also teared up for Jim's survival...
"Aim at the clubhouse and miss." OMG, I about choked to death laughing. So funny!!!!
I’m still a teen but my dream job is to be a air ambulance pilot for osf saint francis lifeflight this is the perfect thing for me to watch so I can understand what the pilot and the rest of the crew have to do in situations like this I want to save peoples lives I know it sounds weird coming from a teen but I care about peoples lives
All the best, you'll get there.
Our favorite narrator, Ser Friendzone.
HOLY COW Tim is one Lucky guy
Did that med tech/EMT say "attach to the thingy"? Never heard that as a medical thingy.
Brain fart!
As an Aussie I crack up when they use the word “Remote”…nah mate, not remotely remote. 😂
Repeat >:(
Is this a reupload?
I think so
wow working on that first bloke in the sun for over 60 mins thats hard going !
🇭🇺Doctor!!
A "little" canyil
I find it astounding that fire department is never on on scene of these calls!
Why would they have to be?
UK fire engines don't routinely carry paramedic-level trained crews like the US and Canada does. They are trained as first responders, but not as 'proper' paramedics.
@@trottergraeme Fire stations are far more numerous than ambulance stations and EVERYONE knows that early access to care has a huge effect on survival rates.
@@ForeverLumoz You cannot be serious when you ask that question.
@@lindanwfirefighter4973Not sure where you are from but ambulance and firefighter response times are about the same here in Germany.
He just jumped a little too far?? I'd like to see the video of that one.
I respect respect your business business
I really appreciate that they don't censor much. I understand that the average person is squeamish about seeing this, but there are plenty of people, just like the first responders, who aren't and can appreciate the visual context. I don't seek gore, but it's a part of reality, and it is something that we have become too sensitive about as a society. I appreciate that this show is the first that I have seen to include that context. It is real. It is genuine. I don't find it off-putting at all. It is real life and something that any one of us could experience in our day to day lives. Why hide it?
“Is Prince William driving?”! OMG! I bout died! Seriously tho I wouldn’t doubt they’ve have people fake seizures or break their own leg just to say they’d been air lifted by His Highness. Lol
I was lucky enough to get a glimpse of him. I was in the Marine Corps and we went to El Centro to do some training and it just so happened that the unit that Prince Harry was in was training there too. I wish that I got the chance to actually meet him, but I was honored enough to be in his presence. I wouldn't bat an eye for a celebrity, but a member of a royal family of an entire nation who has dedicated his time to military service.. That was impressive. Much respect to that man. It was a little weird seeing the British guys riding all over base on bicycles though lmao. Must be a thing in Britian. It was unusual here haha.
While I appreciate what they can do, I wonder if they are delaying transport and thereby getting to the needed cath lab sooner. Patient needs to get to ER much quicker to start invasive procedures.
Many patients, without 'them' would die before they reach ER, so any delays to stabilse are crucial.
Womit! 💜
Don't understand the restriction on night flying.
Here in Australia we fly 24/7 and at least half of our calls out are at night. We have just as dense urban areas with the same sorts of obstacles as there...wires, poles, other air traffic, low visibility. So why?
Its the same for truck drivers.. they have a set amount of hours that they can do in a day. It's done to prevent accidents caused by fatigue. Its not a bad idea. Some people will push themselves to the point where their bodies are literally not able to keep up. Then disasters happen. Its a good thing in my opinion.
@@jonbird6566 But isn't that the conditions under which doctors work in hospitals? They can be extremely fatigued from long shifts, and expected to keep going. How is that safe for anyone?
@@jogrant3851 I agree with you. In a perfect world, they too would be restricted to work only a set number of hours before they had to clock out and get some rest, but the difference between that and transportation, is that there is a much higher potential for loss of life due to a pilot or truck driver falling asleep at the controls, than there is for a doctor sitting on a chair and falling asleep. (you aren't going to fall asleep walking around and assessing patients, and if you do, someone will notice that you passed out)
The unfortunate reality is that the medical systems (at least in the US) are painfully understaffed, and the health ramifications of overworked hospital staff is limited to the individuals themselves, and not to others around them. An argument could be made for fatigue and mistakes made, but that's very hard to prove in correlation whereas an accident happening because a driver fell asleep at the wheel is much easier to prove correlation with fatigue.
@@jonbird6566 That makes a lot of good sense when shown that way. I didn't really think that big. Thanks.
@@jogrant3851 Thanks for the open dialogue! We need more of it in our world, and less close-minded arguments. I'm happy to hear other points of view on things and talk things through!
Good talking to you 😄
Lmfao 😂 is not “driving” the helo! 😂😂😜
Do they also fly at night? Sounds like a silly question, but just wondered.
Hey there
Very much depends, nightflight regulations are quite strict - in germany most MedEvacs arent allowed to fly at night.
@@jwhymjonas6863 I work at a trauma center and we get flights in at night. So definitely a little different. But just interesting to hear how things are different in different areas.
I never want to be given 90 minutes of cpr. Just let me go and let my body rest.
1:43, Me as an American: What are those, the British version of the Blue Angels?
Looked it up.. They are Indeed the British version of the Blue Angels. They are called the Red Arrows. Learned something new today!
The last Guy is proof for me that if Allah/ God want us to survive , we will, if our time is up its up. Simple as that. We simply do not make the final call.
Don’t understand why the helicopters have to land so far away. In the states they land on the highway closest to the patients.
I love all medical videos.
