I think one of the craziest ambulance calls I had during my 5 years as a paramedic involved an old man and a plastic lawn chair. Have you seen those lawn chairs that are plastic, all one piece, and designed to look like a "real" lawn chair, replete with holes and slats cut out of the plastic? Well, an 80s year-old man had one. He also had a stand-alone shower - the kind that doesn't have a tub. I guess he'd decided that he needed a chair in the shower because he decided to take said plastic lawn chair and put it in the shower.
Meanwhile, my (male) partner and I are sitting in our ambulance in a parking lot, bored out of our skulls. Our pagers go off, and we did a double take at the call - penis entrapment?! We couldn't believe it all the way to the residence. My partner strongly admonished me not to laugh, no matter what, before we entered the house.
We were met at the door by the wife, who directed us to the bathroom. We found the gentleman sitting in the chair, naked, and stuck. Apparently, he had gotten in the shower, got soaped up, and sat down... but couldn't get back up! The family jewels had slipped into one of the openings between "slats" in the chair and wouldn't come back out.
He wasn't in pain, or bleeding, but we would have to cut apart the chair to get him out. I looked at my partner, and told him this was his call! He wound up using 2 pair of trauma shears to cut through the chair to get it torn apart enough for the man to free himself. I busied myself getting the report filled out and information gathered. When asked who called, he was quick to say that his wife called, even though he didn't want her to. He kept cracking jokes about the entire situation - his sense of humor was wicked!
After he was freed, we asked if he wanted to go to the hospital to be checked out, just in case. Heck no! He signed our refusal of care release, and we were clear. It is my favorite funny story from my paramedic days!
