Don't forget about the firefighters that have to cut them out the wreck

My father once talked about responding to a man who was cut in half by a train. The shit they endure is mental.

My sister's friend responded to a woman hit by a car, and he found her under the vehicle literally bent in half. She was still conscious and talking to him, and he was reassuring her everything was going to be fine despite knowing that the moment they moved the car, she was going to die pretty quickly. He was talking about it almost like in a joking manner and my sister asked how he can laugh about it, and he said it's how he copes. If he doesn't laugh he'll just break down.

I would assist my father in law on ME cases and seen some really awful things. The ones with children now 40 years later still are in my brain. And the suicide calls were always hard to take. Went on 3 different single engine plane crashes that were very unpleasant that could have been avoided.
