NEWKID 27,176 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Not very heroic, but we were driving home one night and saw an old boy keeled over on the side of the road with a spaniel beside him, laid him on his side and called the ambulance.. He had had a heart attack and when the ambulance arrived, they took our details and asked us to keep hold of the dog... So the old boys off to hospital whilst me the wife and our eldest who was about 4 at the time are off home with his dog.. His wife rang the following day and we returned his mad springer lol.. He came out of hospital and wrote us a nice letter with a box of chocolates... My uncle pulled a boy out of the Thames when he first moved to Surrey as a teen the boy was drowning and he swam out to him, he was picked on for being a West Country bumpkin up until then, but he gained a bit of respect for that.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
johnny boy68 11,726 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Just like to add when I pulled that lad out the river I wouldn't class it as heroic, it just seemed the right thing to do and my life wasn't in any real danger saving him, I was just "Johnny on the spot" so to speak. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lab 10,979 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Never been lucky enough to save someone's life, must be a great feeling to have though knowing something you done had saved a life. However that person may be should be in debt to you forever. Which leads me to an old guy I know.... An absolute gentleman he is. A marathon runner and all round able bodied man all his life. Well he is retired and for a long time he has trapped/ shot rabbits on an estate not far from me. One day in Feb, few days after the shooting season he decided to go and bolt some rabbits. It was a Saturday and he was feeling fine then all of a sudden he took a stroke. Down he went, in the middle of nowhere with no phone. He had very little power but managed to crawl 2 fields, through a hedge and luckily the young lad that works on the farm had decided to go up and spray a field before he went home and saw him lying in the field. He is a very lucky man to be here today and I'm sure he is very grateful to the lad that 100% saved his life that day...;-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Quite the opposite to be honest... You have a deep sense of conscious 'of what might have happened' and your best only to recall it with humor and banter to take the edge off... Taking the Michael out of a situation, especially with a real dark humor, sure helps you for next time and I've certainly never thought of anyone indebted to me...

Some of the things seen and done mean that the only way you can deal with it, is by laughing at it - and it seems horrible and sick to some people, but it is a way of coping. The military, and the emergency services have a very "special" sense of humour. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
