Broadways jumper

Friday morning Engine and Ambulance 4 were sent to Thompson St. for what turned out to be a man down in the street. The patient had jumped from his 8th floor apartment balcony, and came to rest in the middle of Thompson St. after clipping the power lines on his way down. He was conscious and complaining of leg pain, and in pretty bad shape.
After the pt was transported to the ER, he was than flown to the Dartmouth Hitchcock Med Center. He died 8 minutes into the flight.


He survives a jump from the 8th floor, but can't survive an 8 minute flight in a medical chopper. Now that is irony.
