Right outside the doors of A&E in Turkey. Sounds like he got a good wack to his ribs.

What kind of way was he pulling that along? Obvious it was going to happen. Muppet.

What a idiot!

You wouldn't pull a trolley around tesco like that, never mind one with a sick, elderly person...

Hopefully he lost his job for that!!!!

Bit harsh. It shouldn't have happened and shows a lack of cop on the paramedics part.

However, screaming for people to be sacked after a mistake is over the top.

We had a surgeon here who took the wrong kidney out of a kid and he wasn't sacked and you want a guy sacked for toppling a stretcher.

Lets get perspective on this.

Disciplined.....yes
Sacked....no

Paulz is right,
your not going to go your career without making a mistake, Our jobs exist because of human error.
Ambulances crash patients get hurt,99.9% we all do our best
try pull a carry chair on a slippery driveway with a 18st patient very easy to let fall.

In that video his buddy wasn't holding onto the stretcher correctly.

If i was at the risk of getting sacked for a minor accident ambulances wouldnt use blue lights, calls would take alot longer.
