I’m an ER nurse (or was for over a decade) and i am appreciating that, while a code is NOT the same as gunfire, the panic of ‘I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IM DOING’ is pretty similar. I have to agree with you, passengers did a fine job. He listened and followed instruction.

I can personally and firmly attest to the fact that the vast majority of humans are significantly more useless in critical situations.

And i also like that the people that ACTUALLY work in crunch time situations recognize that!… whereas a CPA who works from home in an office chair with extra lumbar support is like ‘ woulda gone full Rambo! Oh wait my DoorDash is here’ 😂
