And people call my friend's father crazy for doing 120MPH up a mountain
(hill to those of you near real mountains) to get to the scene of a
drowning. The deputy was sleeping and didn't hear the call and tailed him
all the way up. Said it was funny how his response went from "Don't Move!"
to "What can I do to help?"

Sometimes, seconds do matter.
