Typically, we don't make a big deal out of the calls we receive, unless something big happens, forcing us to discuss them. Or, even more interestingly, something out of the ordinary happens.
Well, odd calls are almost an everyday occurrence for EMTs. So, today, let's take a stroll through the list of stories these folks gathered from their jobs, and let's evaluate where on a craziness scale they would stand.

Since my night relief just learned about this today from my partner from this call and insists it's because of my black cloud....
Got dispatched ~28 miles to an international airport for an aircraft in distress. We were only a few minutes en route when we got toned out for a higher priority 17D6 (long fall) a few miles away. Certainly these events can't be related, right? Come to find out the location was given by air traffic control to be the estimated area where the co-pilot jumped at 3,200 ft msl. Found him about 5 hours later in a back yard.
