my coworker told me about one time he was waiting for the subway when someone shouted really loud "BYE!" and when everyone turned to look, he was mid-air in the train's path. the train smacked him and survival reflexes kicked in. he scrambled to grab the chains, but was soon sucked under and my coworker always makes this slurpy, flappy sound effect to describe it. that final shout good-bye gave him everyone's full attention ... how nice.
on a side note, i had a friend who made that leap. he wasn't looking for attention. he had psychiatric issues.
jay, i hope you never have to head to one of those scenes. by protocol, don't you still have to check for a pulse or something to confirm death? ewww ...

If they're transected, it's considered "obvious death" but if they for example, blink... then you kinda have to work it. That requires going under the train n' stuff. It won't be fun.
Tomorrow we have a mock disaster training prep.
We don't know what it is or where it is. We were told to go to a certain place tomorrow and we'll be assigned partners (within our orientation group) and an ambulance.
Then the whole thing commences, with actors and makeup n' stuff.
Last year it was a fake explosion at Wilson Subway station... this year, who knows.
But you show up and there's 50 people screaming... all with different injuries.
The first crew shows up and they take on the role of Incident Commander and Safety Officer... second crew that shows is the Triage officer and the Transport officer. All with different duties in coordination.
The exercise is done in conjunction with Toronto PD ETF and the Fire department. It's really really intense... with many units coming in and treating the fake patients. None of us are looking forward to it cause each patient comes with an evaluator... and you have to do it like it's real... leave and go to a "hospital"... basically somewhere with a parking lot and report and drop them off and get back in the cue to go back in.
The whole thing lasts 4 hours and you're just going back and getting more people and treating them. Getting on the radios, talking to dispatch and trying to stay calm, calling in PD to cordon off areas, Fire to do this and that. Crazy!
There's 50 people in this recruitment... 25 will be upstairs in didactic training and have no idea what's happening. Then they go do it next week... a different MCI so they won't know anything even if we tell them what we had.
Helmets, gloves, respirators, insanity, acting, screaming, makeup, I think we're all going to shit when we arrive "on scene" tomorrow.
And Friday is my operational rideout... which means I'll be on the road. I'll be out of 21 Station, which is at the back of Sunnybrook. Look out for me!  heheh I'm 07:00-19:00
Shane, you got an account I can send you pictures and you could post them here for me? I can't seem to get my shit to work properly.
