How...how stupid can you be.

I'm an EMT and we recently had a patient who was walking on train tracks with his earbuds in. The obvious occurred. He survived and last we heard his brain was still in decent shape, surprisingly enough.

So in answer to your question, people get unbelievably stupid around train tracks.

If you were hit by a train the right way, it actually does very little damage, because you go under where there is a clearance

I saw the dude on the left and thought OH poo poo SCARY MONSTER and then I realized that no, he was busy making GBS threads himself too, and the scary monster in this situation was apparently "common sense", since they both avoided it (and luckily the train).

I believe the definition translates to “collision with a person” over here. I guess if you’re waiting for a train it goes over better than “dude got splattered” or “ludicrous gibs”.

I think that is one that exists because only a doctor can declare someone dead. So a paramedic or whatever can't report in that the patient is dead, just that they have injuries incompatible with life.

Queen_Combat

"injuries incompatible with life" is explicitly spelled out in our local protocols to allow paramedics and/or EMTs to declare someone dead. It's a strict set of signs/symptoms that allow someone below a doctor to declare death. The lower the license, the stricter they are.

So, for example, in Phoenix, a paramedic may be able to see asystole (no electrical activity), PEA (pulseless electrical activity), severe cervical spinal injuries, decapitation, signs of internal decapitation, or visible brain matter combined with lack of response and declare death. An EMT (one step below paramedic) needs to see actual brain matter separate from the head or an actual decapitation, but doesn't have a cardiac monitor or the licensed skills to be able to declare death based on heart rhythm (or lack of).

Different states have different requirements, too. For example, Alaska requires a body temperature above a certain point to declare death in combination with other signs like PEA, because sometimes someone who is extremely hypothermic with PEA may get ROSC (Return of Spontaneous Circulation) when you warm them up.

He was pretty funny for a short time fifteen years ago. He completely abandoned his base when he discovered podcasts, and some idiot gave him a book deal. His wannabe Ed Anger shtick didn't really have long-term potential to start with.
