What is it they tell you? Reassure the casualty.

This is priceless. The guy crashes in the Irish Sea and these numpties show up. Fair play to him, he then waited on the wing (in the water) for 25 minutes for the Helo and passed on the Woolie Wanderers. One of the rowers packed it in that day and went home "cos everything that could go wrong, had" . Says it all.
