Yeah, my thoughts too. You’re on a mountain peak, lady! It’s not like EMS can just send an ambulance right out.

I’ve been watching these videos on You Tube of Mt. Everest hikers who think they know better than the sherpas and keep pushing themselves when common sense says “don’t try it”.

Exactly. It's not like calling Mr. Wizard for help, especially when you're on a mountain peak.

Help, Mr. Wizard!!! I'm stuck on a mountain ledge in the freezing cold!

Drizzle, Drazzle, Druzzle, Drome,
time for this one to come home!

Yeah, 911 does not have god-like powers. Sometimes there is really nothing they can do except contact your next-of-kin.
