We've all done it. Everyone who has worked for any length of time in EMS has had that patient that has done something so bizarre or wacky that we can't help but laugh out loud. What's yours?
Mine was a call where we got called out for "an entrapment". We arrived at scene to find a young couple that had gotten... well... entangled. The female had a tongue ring, and the male half had a piercing that was somewhat... lower... and somehow during the course of their carousing they had become inextricably locked together. The sight of the two of them linked together in such a manner was bad enough, but the real topper was when the captain on the fire engine walked in with a pruning shears and shouted "Alright, we'll have this sorted out in a snip!"
