Many times we don’t make it, whichever the case. I’ve seen people collapse in front of my eyes, some severed limbs and other stuff. More often than not there is going to be people who don’t get out in one piece, or at all. I remember this one highway crash where one of the bodies ended up all squashed under a truck wheel… it was not a pretty sight.
If you want to get into saving lives, know you will see a lot of them lost. And it will not be pretty.
Edit: I only have thanks to everyone who upvoted and gave awards, and to the 50 comments, tbh, I don’t think I can answer them. Live, care for others. Don’t let the world get you down, life is hard, but it can also be better.
piggybacking off of this because my brother’s an EMT/RN/firefighter (he started firefighting at 16 years old, he’s now 24), same goes for his wife. he tries to keep work at work but sometimes he can’t help but bring it home. it’s very sad.

Can you imagine being a firefighter who tries that but missed. Oh man, what a hell of a job
