Maybe it's because we've all been on an ambulance once or twice, but no one ever seems to consult with the professionals, like they do with doctors; they just assume they know exactly what happens, which is inevitably always wrong.
Hee!
Then again, I've heard that Terminator - the movies, anyways - are actually pretty good when it comes to details. My teacher actually used a clip from the second movie to illustrate the stages of cardiopulmonary arrest.
I haven't seen the movies in years, but interesting! There's one particular SCC episode in which the emergency medicine, and indeed the basic biological science, struck me (and I guess everyone, judging from fan reactions) as particularly ridiculous. A transparent exchange of science for plot device!
