I think those people should be given the bill for that crap. It's like mt. climbers who get lost and have to be rescued by hellacopter and have half the frikin state lookin' for em'. If your one of those people who say " wow I'd like to do that" then you should know what your fucking doing you idiot or you just put others in possible life ending danger. love, jason liked that only u had sunglasses on there vinny babarino.

I was an EMT some decades back and being able to remain calm in the middle of the storm is a good trait to have. And I remember participating in some rescues where sometimes you needed to yell at the victim, because you do need them to come back to reality and do something (like stand up). I always believed that the true nature of a person comes out during a crisis. Some remain calm, some panic, some run, some shut down. Good for you for remaining calm and helping. Bravo Jon!

Glad everyone made it to safety. Good to know that you are an effective uni-tasker and can maintain that level of focus the entire time. I probably would have been looking around all over the place seeing if there was something else going on that I would want to know about - but not necessarily need to know about. Did you make it to dinner afterward? Good stuff. Glad everyone made it to safety.
