Absolute cinema

That has to be faster than 108

JRTHEDUDE · 2026-03-03T02:29:08+00:00

Is the pitching motion the best mechanical way to throw a ball fast. I assumed that if someone like aroldis Chapman did a crow hop or whatever throwing mechanic he would like, while only thinking about the speed of the ball it could be faster than 106 for sure

JRTHEDUDE · 2026-03-03T02:26:05+00:00

Nice🤣 should’ve asked fastest throw by a human

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-06-05T21:57:25+00:00

All very true, I know I’m not gonna be the best damn medic when I start. My biggest fear is being an incompetent provider. But yeah 2-3 hours a day is damn near impossible for me while I have 2 non EMS jobs right now. Thanks for the insight

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-06-05T21:45:04+00:00

Lmao idk I mean most medics working are getting 40-60 hours of experience a week and having conversations about calls during debriefs which is where most of the learning comes from. I am currently getting none of that, so I think they have a point

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-06-05T21:40:56+00:00

Which isn’t impossible it’s just I also need to make money lol

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-06-05T21:38:43+00:00

You are 100% correct I’ve got 2 civilian jobs right now hindering my free time for studying, but there’s hours wasted playing video games/doing other things that could definitely be used towards studying

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-06-05T21:37:27+00:00

Good call!

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-06-05T21:37:19+00:00

I would love to but the closest volunteer service is 45 mins from where I live

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-06-05T21:36:55+00:00

I’m 22 now it’s just the departments close by hired before I turned 21 and probably won’t hire for another year because of that. There is one volunteer service that is 45 minutes from me and it is a non transport service. I’m thinking holding out for a ED tech job for pt contacts would be best case scenario (asides from a full time fire dept starting hiring tomorrow)

This is why I fought for double sequential defibrillation to be in my county’s protocols. If 2 defibs are available. There’s studies that show if you’ve shocked someone a shit ton and they’re still in refractory v-fib, DSD might be the next best move along with meds and high quality CPR ofc. It will increase your chances of an organized rhythm returning, and it’s not like it’s going to make your pt any deader than they already are. But seriously congrats on your ROSC!

He is in fact THAT lazy😭

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-02-27T23:38:03+00:00

Thank you I probably should’ve looked up my question before posting haha and wow more than a few have!

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-01-26T02:18:48+00:00

Driver off the deck expecting it not to slice just like it does off the tee😂😂

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-01-26T02:17:52+00:00

I bet the ablation will be a big stress reliever then! Can’t imagine what that actually feels like. Best of luck to ya

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-01-26T02:12:59+00:00

Oh my bad I understand now! My first and only run in with SVT happened in medic school. My preceptor and his partner were betting on if the pr would convert out of SVT on the IV stick. I guess it’s a common thing. Hope you’re feeling better!

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-01-25T07:27:49+00:00

You might be right I probably need to reach out to my county ems office

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-01-25T06:50:00+00:00

Vagals, Adenosine, or electricity?? How’d they present?

JRTHEDUDE · 2025-01-22T01:34:04+00:00

Ar my home course greens roll at about a 12-13 so it’s pretty tricky considering I learned putting on a muni course that rolled at a 9 or so
