@@forwarddrive4066 right after yall got the bodycam thing pushed and noticed that itll catch officers doing good as well as bad. Now all the sudden body cams are a bad thing lmfao. There is something wrong with your brain
As a former EMT, the screams may be awful to listen to but man, they're a wonderful noise, because you know your patient has an airway and he's breathing 💔
I was thinking 'there's no way his brain will be okay after that' and then he started screaming like that. It's messed up. Hopefully I'm wrong about these assumption
The scary part with people being electrocuted is if you try to grab them you will be electrocuted also and you will be umable to let go and excape and so thats quickly how you can go from one person being electrocuted to many
For non-electricians that don’t understand the video: 1) The transmission line a few feet above the street was most likely around 7200v or 12470v if shocked phase to phase. Since there’s only one line, the boy was shocked at the lower 7200v. At much higher voltages, he would most likely have fingers or a hand blown off by the arc. 2) This line does not need to be touched to shock you. It may arc, or reach out and touch you like lightning, if you come within about 2.88 inches of it. 3) The arc most likely saved the boys life by blowing him off, preventing him from latching onto the line, as evidenced by the hand burn. He most likely has burns on his feet as well where the circuit was completely. The electricity flowed in through his grounded feet and exited to the wire. 4) Once he was on the ground, he was safe. The damage had been done. The police officer was also safe being a couple feet below the wire. He was not shocked in the video. He was charged with adrenaline and jumpy. There was no actual shock to the officer. 5) An electrician could easily have done what the officer did with no fear since we can assess the danger here is low. However, for the officer to do what he did without even knowing he really was quite safe if extraordinary.
You can see a hole burned/melted in the side of his left sock when he's getting loaded into the vehicle- hand to foot, and whatever the electricity injured on the way.
Very solid and useful info. i've had to jump downed lines during a tornado before, so is it possible if i had gotten within 2.88 inches of them I may have gotten zapped?
That cop didnt take any longer than 5seconds to think and decided his life was worth risking for this young boy. I got nothing but respect for this officer.
All cops decided their life was worth risking even the ones that think they can do something outside of the law. The only differences between cops and civilians are training and permission to conduct what needs to be done. Something cop haters often forget they are human they are both good and bad just like everyone else but they made it their job in our society. I agree with what you said just extending it to everyone with or without a badge that goes above and beyond.

@@HomeByTheSeas For sure, but that's not something I was commenting on here. I was simply pointing out to the person above my comment that the original commenter was correct.
I know some people might think it's horrible to hear the child screaming but trust me, as an EMT it's music to our ears. It means that they are breathing, and their airway is not compromised. Glad these officers were there to help him and transport him to get medical help.
It just makes this kind of work extra tough. Definitely hard to not bring it home for everyone involved. Even though he was screaming he might have severe brain damage based on the burns to his head 😭. Might have survived but there might be nothing left 😭
@@braydend9582 Just gotta take things one step at a time. Not everybody makes it home every day, any day where everyone does is a good day. We'll worry about the rest later, can't do anything more now. Its all up to that hospital and some luck.
@@Fastonfours there is an underground electrical cable that has been damaged and it's causing electricity to be sent up through the ground and electrocute the boy. he could have just been walking and randomly felt a shock and fell to the ground. The cop risked being electrocuted too when he grabbed him because electricity can be transmitted though touch.
@@mikeabbitt8309that’s completely false. snoring doesn’t necessarily mean a blocked airway. and even then, he had a pulse and was breathing; so why is there a need to perform CPR?? they laid him in best of a position as they could, given he had a backpack on. his face was blurred, so we don’t know if his eyes were opened and moving or not. you can’t rely on EMS to be there. if there is a hospital within driving distance, which for the officers, seemed to only be about 5 minutes, then there is zero use waiting 10 minutes for an ambulance, waiting another 5 to get him loaded on, and then another 5 to drive there. all that does is waste time in which the child could be seen by doctors and nurses with adequate facilities.
I've been in law enforcement for over 30 years, and I promise you that dealing with injured and deceased children is tough. It gets no easier with time. Gotta love and protect the babies!!❤
I wish my local police were like you. Reality is I live with police that protect child abusers and burglars. Our police don't have a spine like you guys (Melton 3337 police I'm talking about and have footage to back up my mouth)
Yeah I thought there was some kind of gas in the air like fentanyl or something. Now I’m seeing burns on the boys head and hands like something exploded? What happen?
Love that he told him to let it out. We make those sounds for a reason, during release of trauma. Permission to feel comfortable doing that in front of another person is so healing.
Does anyone know the name of the officer? I feel like as a society we are really quick to judge cops for bad behavior, but we don't reward the good cops. Positive reinforcement
An officer lost his job recently for transporting a 2 year old burn victim to the ER in his police car. Which is the saddest thing for such a hero. When someone goes above and beyond for our children, they deserve respect .
Agreed, but when it comes to kids I'll do anything. we swore an oath. Gotta hold the firemen's prayer near and dear to us. It would have taken way too long to get a power company out there to shut it down and save him. At the end of the day he did what he had to do.
What happens the next day when the same cop has to use deadly force on a car jacker who was about to shoot him? Protests, riots after they find him not guilty? Probably.
This happened last year. The little boy made it...thank God. Two children came into contact with a live wire in Warren - one of them seriously hurt. The officers who saved an 8-year-old’s life last year, were honored for their valor on September 27, 2023.
How did they “come in contact with” live wires? Were live wires in the street for a reason or did they go climb up a pole and touch the wires? There has to be more to the story.
@@webcomment8895 Literally who cares? They're fucking children, after they've been electrocuted isn't the time to try and blame them regardless of how it happened. Shit happens. We don't need to know the rest of the story.
@@mattjack3983the screaming is what told me the kids going to be alright. In a situation like that the quiet unconscious ones are the biggest concern. As soon as you hear him snore earlier in the video you know he’s alive. The snore is a scarier sound than the scream honestly.
All the officers piling into a single squad car with the boy to take him to the hospital instead of waiting for an ambulance is absolutely legendary. Props!
yeah except if he was in a deadly arrhythmia and delayed defibrillation could have cost him his life. They should have taken him to meet ALS capable paramedics on the way to the hospital not to mention the pain and torture this child went throug while not recoeving pain and memory management. But i get what they were thinking.
Yeah wait like 45 minutes for an ambo, dispatchers would treat these kinds of call as non priority since the kid was breathing - and not as much critical priority as someone who is in cardiac arrest, so yeah it was a good call for officers to rush him to the hospital. Even though the officer's actions were extremely dangerous and he put his own life at risk as well. Now I would like to know how the fuck something like that happened and who is liable to get sued for all they got - city ? why was power not cut off - events like these are extreme emergencies, and calls for a crew to come and cut power. For high voltage lines you can get electrocuted within around 33 feet
@@jimmydandy9364that’s actually not true. Systems typically have tiers for priority vs non priority. Priority being code 3 and the other code 2. Code three runs are Code 3 Runs regardless of nature. Just because he’s breathing does not mean they would divert a unit for a cardiac arrest UNLESS the cardiac arrest (or any other priority call) was closer to that responding unit than the original call.
It was the right thing to do for this call, seconds count. That being said, it was also a horrible risk the first two who grabbed the kid took and unfortunately I highly doubt that the kid survived or would not be in a vegetative state. I say this as a first responder. This video should also come with strong graphic warnings, censoring the kids face alone is not sufficient.
I started crying so hard when the officer said “it’s okay buddy let it all out” those officers are so kind hearted and didn’t hesitate to jump in and help. God bless them and that little boy 🥹
His injuries were so severe. He had burns on his hands,head, back and feet. When he began to scream, I felt so much relief. That meant his breathing was working better and he was becoming aware.I am glad the officers did a scoop and run to get him to the hospital faster. Bless that child and I pray his injuries are healing and he is mentally healing. Those officers put themselves on the line to save him. Electricity is such a fearsome thing.
I was going to note the same about the screams being a bitter sweet sign of progress. The silence in the beginning and then gargling was more scary. Not saying I wish that pain on anyone but his responses towards it in the car were a better sign. Hope he can fully recover
Those cries of agony & fear hit me deep down in my heart I didn’t even realize I was pacing until the end of the video I had that awful lump in your throat feeling & still do. I hope he’s able to make a full recovery
@@Hashslingingslasherrrrrryeah and seeing the electrical burn injuries to his hand and head omg. I can only imagine the amount pain he was in. hopfully they were able to give him sedeatives quickly.
He wasn't conscious. That snoring is called 'agonal breathing'. There's a reason he was screaming without saying anything (plus being unconscious for many minutes straight while struggling to breathe properly). He wasn't close to fully conscious, that's just brain + cardiac injuries making respond in automatic ways. He's got brain damage now + heart and kidney failure and went through cardiac arrest in the hospital. Thankfully he's at home with his family, but it was definitely severe life changing injuries. But hopefully the only pain he consciously felt was after he'd been treated in hospital.
I love how he said “I gotta get him, right?” But he literally wasn’t asking anyone but himself and he knew it, nobody said anything and he answered in his own head “obviously!” Exemplary example of a good human being right here
Isn't it kind of mindblowing? We got to hear someone do what we do everyday and yet barely notice. We heard him ask his soul for wisdom. We got to see a man check in with Destiny itself and make the decision to take a leap of faith, to choose to be on the side of Life.
This was the comment I was looking for, honestly not a fan of most cops but this man is a gem of a human. More cops like this and my issues with them go away
If he is not forced to see this again in his dreams, he is a lucky man. Normally, trauma like this isn't soon shed. Praying for peaceful sleep for first responders.
Gotta love it when the police who are literally being paid with our collective tax dollars to protect and serve us actually do their job correctly and without bias and save a life rather than act as the judge, jury, and executioner and take one. Strange that we don't respond and treat firefighters, EMT, and medical professionals even remotely the same way when they do their job. The fact that we specifically feel the need to celebrate the police when they actually do their job says all there is to be said.
@@incogspectator3042 as messed up as it is he's right he can still feel pain he's awake he's aware of what's going on he's breathing he could very well be in a coma he could lose the ability to feel pain which would suck hell he could lose the ability to use his limbs
@@badsaint1019yep. They only show us what they want us to see. In hopes we’ll think what they want us to think. Unfortunately many do. People must pay attention and think for themselves.
No, it's what it means to be a good person. I'm pretty anti government, but cops like this give me some hope that there's a few good people still in government. Not many, but this guy's a shining example of one.
@@tedkaczynskiamericanhero3916 Most cops are like this. If presented with a situation where they can help someone like this 99% of cops would do the same thing. There are sooo many examples of cops saving people like this. By choosing a job like this they risk their lives everday just by putting on the uniform.
@@js2sgamer951To be entirely fair, I think there’s more than 1% of cops that abuse the system - or at least, passively take part or let abuse slide in the system in the Us. However yes, I think it’s sad that so many people get caught in these circlejerks of watching this abuse and assume its the full story. Some cops, at the very least, joined because they wanted to help protect the community. Some would put their lives on the line to protect people, and go through horrible abuse on a daily basis to do so. The ACAB narrative has always seemed unfairly prejudicial to me, and a bit sad. Just because there IS corruption doesn’t mean you should assume every single person in the force is taking part in it. They aren’t a hive mind. they’re people like us, and yes, the system allows a lot of shit through, and it might need changing, but there’s no reason to project that, without question, onto every single person working as a cop.

Look again- he's still got all his digits intact but they're burned a bit. They're not swelling up like balloons (I burned my hand pretty bad once, and that's what happens) so his hands should be fine in a few weeks. It sure stings like a bitch, though, and he's just a poor little kid.
The fact that they weren't going to wait for EMT shows you how desperate they were to save this boy. Respect to all the officers and may the boy make a speedy recovery.
From what i am seeing i don't think you are totally correct. What would be more accurate to say is the guy who's body cam we are watching wasint going to wait. By the looks of it other cops already showed up and even had the time to put down caution tape. I wouldnt be too hard on them consider the danger here but the only people who really deserve credit here are the two cops who decided to put there life's at risk to save that kid. He didnt set up tape he said right away "i got to get him" and then he did it.
Caution tape was already there according to the first officers body cam. Which means SOMEONE knew there was a down wire and left it energized. I hope they are prosecuted.
it's really weird .. why would he just grab the wire? was this suicide attempt? person with common sense and no suicidal tendencies would NOT grab a wire with both hands .. if those were burns, then it means he grabbed the wire with both hands for some reason
@@bmwrider7961i believe the top of the head injury , was them dragging his head when pulling him by his legs… like they scraped off flesh from his skull yo… crazy but they saved him nonetheless
I sobbed. Former EMT and Hospital security. If he's screaming, he's breathing. This poor child. I pray for his full recovery. To the officers who risked their lives and held him in your arms- you are heroes.
My husband was electrocuted and killed and no one he worked with tried to help him. God bless these officers for this. What amazing heroes. The difference between life and death when it comes to electrocution is swiftness of assistance. They saved that boys life, and I hope they are blessed abundantly for it.
@samirdoncic6395 It was live but I don't know how much voltage it was but you can clearly see the cop get electrocuted as well when he touched him. The boys hands are burned at the point where he tried to pick up the wire and I can only assume its 240v with low amperage going directly to a house or something.
@@robsp32 240v doesn’t even close to the voltage there. 240 will grab ahold of you and not let go, but you can move your eyes and mostly speak, but know something isn’t right and you can’t let go, n gives you a good tingle feeling all over. That wire was prob more like 5000-15000 volts, you could prob here the hum of it, if all the other sounds were taking out of video, n makes your hair stand at 8 ft away which will jump from the wire, several feet away and enter you due to looking for the nearest path to the ground. , throw a 200 grown man like a rag doll and knock you back, like an explosion, all while burning where it entered exited instantly and basically frying everything in between. Essentially energizing the body. N the current was probably jumping from the line to kid still when the officers grabbed him. That’s why when they got him far enough away he started breathing n coming back. They very much did risk there lives, to help him. Very very lucky child, is an understatement.
As a first responder, I wish i could do what these guys did. He didn't really secure the scene, and that is why the kid is still alive! I can't stop crying because of the treatment this officer gave him! He treated him and spoke to him like he was his own child! I can't, jesus, what a Guardian Angel. I hope to be what you are in my life!
First of all thank you for your service. But I have a question at around 6:45 the kid started screaming do you know what this could be the cause of. I assumed that it was because he was in pain from being electrocuted. What do you think
@@nava8167 pain and probably felt like shit from being super tensed up an everything else to do with electricity. It definitely takes over the body. At the very least any muscles. Aside from any burns associated from it. An he was starting to come back to in the squad car and was feeling it all that much more
@nava8167 I'm pretty sure all his pain receptors were firing on blast mode! Trust me, it hurts to hear him like that, but if he is screaming, he is breathing. AIRWAY, BREATHING, CIRCULATION Unresponsive is a nightmare. These men have been promoted to guardian angels in my eyes! Hope to emulate you guys somehow in my life.
@VendettahHelsing CASIVAC - Casualty Evacuation, MEDEVAC - Medical Evacuation. Basically, cops didn't wait for a medical vehicle to arrive, just put the boy in the back of a patrol car and went to the hospital.
This must absolutely crush his parents to see how distressed & near death their baby was… but at the same time, must bring so much comfort seeing 1st hand how their baby was treated, protected & cared for as if he was their own child!! These Officers are hero’s!!! No hesitation, just grab the kid & hope they don’t get more than a shocked hand in the process… This is what being an Officer is all about & what we are blessed to see 🥹🦸♂️
This had me in tears. The screams of his pain is excruciating to hear. You can already see the blackening of his skin on his hands. Especially in the cop car because the one officer is holding that hand by the wrist and trying to keep the boy from moving it. He’s going to have some painful therapy ahead of him. Those officers are amazing. To pull him away from the wire, which obviously saved his life, and then to make the decision to not wait on the ambulance and to just book it to the hospital themselves, all the while listening to the poor baby’s screams? I just can’t imagine how those officers went home that evening and processed that event. They were heroes for sure!!
once the screams started, I already knew if that happened to me I would've done the same thing if I was that young. Tho, tbh I was actually electrocuted a couple years ago. My hair tips got singed right when it happened. I was cutting vines and ended up cutting the main power line to my house mainly because it was covered in honeysuckle which made me want to clear it, which instantly cut all power off for one side of the house. The left side was totally fine, tho the right side that had the line cut was completely dead. for about a week, before we got it fixed. Also, technically I ended up doing exactly what my dream did by showing what happened when I ended up getting electrocuted. I had the dream less than 6 months before it actually happened.
To this officer......I don't know you...I don't know your name....what i do know is I'm a father and as a father my worst fear is not being able to protect my child or be there when they are scared or hurt. Your ability to detach yourself from your life, and your safety to make a difference in this s$!t world literally brought me to tears. You sir are a true hero. Thank you for who you are and your service. I hope life repays you.
There are. I used to be one of them, but the public made my professional and personal life too hard due to media and other factors. I quit. I got tired of it. Most did.
There are! It’s just that people like to provoke like toddlers wondering what they can get away with and as SOON as you rub a cop the wrong way, it’s game-over for your “true” intentions.
Of course there is an amount of compassion being shown for a kid being electrocuted you psychopath. Your social media algorithms take you to dark places because you have a dark soul, there are plenty of loving and caring people that are here to help those in need. Treat others as you would like to be treated. When you see someone in need you help them, one day it will be YOU

@@MrLurkProductionHow much do ambulances cost? I’m not American sorry. In my state in Australia they are free so I was surprised to see they could possibly be expensive.
about $1,200 USD or more. But depending on a person's health insurance, they may pay their annual maximum amount of some $5k-20k and most of the rest is paid for by insurance. I was taken against my will in an ambulance, ER, "trauma", bc I was drunk and had a scratch on my head. After 1 night and exit paperwork that said "tylenol or advil for pain" the bill was some $22,000 ($7,000 to me) for basically nothing at all. So yeah, USA got some funny health care@@terrydactyl2077
@terrydactyl2077 they cost thousands upon thousands. Can depend on how far your going and what you need but yeah they are absolutely absurd. Gotta love the USA!
I was about his age when I got electrocuted by a power line. Sever burns to my hands, (entrance), feet (exit), and where the pipe hit me in the abdomen. Spent two months in the hospital. I know the pain and fear all to well. Hope the little dude recovers fully. This is the exact reason I went into medicine, the care I received could not be paid back any other way.
I cried uncontrollably when the officers held that screaming child on the way to the ER. I'm so touched by their commitment and heart. You gentlemen are in my prayers.
Working in the medical field, all I can do is cry with relief hearing that poor boy scream. The same way we wait with baited breath for a newborn to cry, I was waiting for this boy to show signs of life and as terrible and harrowing as his pain is in this video, I am beyond grateful that the officers involved did not hesitate to save this child’s life
My thoughts exactly. I feel horrible for the pain you hear in that scream, but when I heard that all I could think was "thank goodness he's alive". Hope the boy had a full recovery. 😔
For the same reason nurses don't take screaming patients in the ER serious. If u got energy ⚡ to make a fuss, u aren't in critical condition and can wait longer😂 we more worried about the quiet ones looking tired. It's not ignoring patience need but priorities must be made.
@@alienfish8521 not universally true lol. I was screaming like crazy when my appendix burst, was in middle school the best guess is it burst -a while- before I got to the hospital.

Last thing I remember was getting a shot in my butt and a moment later a mask on my face.
Officer running his hands through his hair was a beautiful thing to see. A fathers love with a child hurt. Mad respect for that officer risking his life to grab him. ❤❤❤ I see a lot of heated comments. If you read my sentence correctly. A fathers love is a word to describe how a man shows love to a child. Doesn’t have to mean he is a parent. Just as a woman who shows love to a child despite having kids of her own. Be kind to one another. This about the love a stranger showed a child he never met, in a fatherly way.

Any parent instinct Or like other guy said…dont need to have kids to be a hero with a big heart. I have none, but I would still risk myself to save someone else’s, bc no kid deserves that
Everyone with a heart feels that, parent or not. When you see someone in danger, and it hits even harder when you see a child or an animal, an elderly person in need or danger-anyone vulnerable-your basic instincts take over your whole body. It hits for ANYONE, vulnerable person or not, if I see another person in danger or needing help I don’t care who you are , you’re a fellow human who needs help. You just spring into action before you even realize what you’re doing. Even writing this makes my chest fill with that feeling thinking about the people I’ve had to treat in the past when I did medical at different large events and festivals. No one talks about how at any festival or event over 3k where there’s drinking or drugs you have one death every time.. always , always, always a seizure from drug overdose. Always a seizure … Alcohol poisoning sometimes too… those ones usually we can get to the hospital in time…
THAT IS NOT THE SOUND OF BREATH YOU MORONS. not until he is screaming in agony by a true miracle no thanks to these idiot cops . There are soooo many things wrong here. This is one of those feel good civil servant stories that departments run with for good publicity. I'm not taking anything away from what the cops did, it was in deed a dangerous situation, but we simply don't give them the training they need! 1. That boy is NOT breathing. Multiple cops say "he's breathing' They report to the dispatcher that he's breathing. He is NOT breathing or snoring. He is agonal breathing which means his brain is being injured due to a lack of oxygen and it's a reflex. It's the bodies last ditch effort to get oxygen to the brain Someone in agonal breathing is VERY close to death. People in agonal breathing often are in cardiac arrest, or suffered a stroke, drowning. suffocation, electrocution, drug overdose... What they needed to do was check for a pulse and start CPR and/or ventilations. The fact that he came out of agonal breathing on his own is a miracle. . Police shouldn't transport. Now I don't know what the EMS response time is in that area, but in most cities with an EMS system it is better to wait for EMS than transport in a police cruiser. Usually patients die in the cruiser on the way to the hospital. The news says it took them 4 minutes to get to the hospital. The ambulance probably could have gotten to the scene in under 4 minutes and started medical intervention sooner. Also if the patient goes into arrest on the way to the hospital in the back of an ambulance they have medical equipment. Oxygen, D-fib, medications, etc. The police cruiser has none of that. You can't even perform CPR in a cop car Police should almost NEVER transport a patient. 3. This took place at the corner of Charlotte and Sharrow streets. Check out Google street view. In the video the wire is four feet off the floor running from the white sign on the right to possibly the porch of the red house on the left. You can clearly see the wire in contrast with the white house on the left. Also if you look past the white sign on the right you can see the parking lot is also taped off with caution tape. Clearly the wire is down in the parking lot, runs across the sign and over to the red house. The boy is no longer touching the wire. The wire is not touching the street. I highly doubt that cop got shocked. The officer grabbing the other ankle sure didn't. Makes no sense. disgusting that the city allowed the electric to still be on when there was a downed wire near the school no crossing guards and no one there to tell the kids going to school that the city is garbage and hasn't shut off electrical to the downed wire from at least 12 hours prior PLENTY OF TIME TRASH HUMANS secondly THIS BOY WAS IN AGONY THAT THE COPS WILL NEVER COMPREHEND NEITHER WILL MOST OF US. The also probably caused brain damage because they didn't do basic stuff that we leaned in school as kids about life saving. Did anyone check for a pulse? He was dying and as this post I am about to copy paste here states IT IS A MIRACLE THAT THESE COPS DID NOT KILL HIM his brother is the hero who used his book bag to knock the wire away out of his hands the boys were walking to school they had no idea that there was a downed wire they jist tried to get to school f everyone in this town except those two boys❤
@gawrgarrz some of our sons are that tall while still in elementary school. For us moms, we refer to all kids below a certain age as "baby". You can't tell age by height/size, and he was worthy of the nurturing he received, regardless of age.
Omg..😢 that poor kid. Those screams, did you see his hands..I pray that he's healed now. *Edit* I read Blake made a full recovery & the officer received a medal.🏅 Bravo!!!!
As a father that deals with high voltage (Generators, Switchgears, Transformer's, ATS, etc.). I give them props on how law enforcement handle the situation. It brought tears to my eyes.
Being a parent makes this extremely hard to watch, & not tear up. Respect to the officer that jumped into action, stayed calm, to save this young child.
I have been crying since I saw the other little boy trying to get to him. That officer deserves everything good in the world. He risked it all to save this boy and he talked to the boy as if that was his child.
Totally agreed!!! This Officers parents have a lot to be proud of having him as their son! Blessing's to them all, hope they are still doing well well after the happening.
I'm pretty sure someone else was screaming on the left side, as much as i hear with headphones, who thought he was dead. Also it wouldn't make sense for the police to say "he's still breathing!" If he just screamed his lungs out.
As gutwrenching, as that babies screams are, it means he will survive it means he is breathing it means his brain is registering something it means his heart is pumping it means that he is pulling oxygen into his lungs As hard as it is to hear his screaming it is that small solace it means he’ll be surviving this as painful as it is to hear it means he is alive and I get it. I’m sobbing both from the anxiety of the situation as well as the relief his screams mean
When the officer said “I Gotta get him” tears started flowing for me!!! For all the criticism officers receive and while some is certainly deserved…. Those men and women doing there best serving our communities deserve all the accolades that could be given. A young man is alive today because some heroes came to his rescue!
Sadly many good deeds done by officers will be countered by few cases where they abuses their power because internet works that way doesn't want to see good side bit only negative actions
@@juhakeranen3225 No one is ignoring the good side, some of us do point out horrible s*** that has been ignored for what feels like an eternity. Don't try to conflate the reality of murderers with badges existing to the concept of people being irrationally anti cop. The bad stuff needs to be pointed out too.
Watching these police officers working fearlessly together to save this young man and stay with him through his pain and screaming brought tears to ny eyes. So proud of them.
This guy did more than people realize, went against all training. Any first responder is trained scene safety is first, basically don’t turn into another victim. This guy knew the hazards & still saved that kid. He’s for sure a hero to that kid
Screams mean he’s alive. The silence was deafening to me. I felt relieve and sadness that he was in so much pain and fear, but it could’ve been so much worse. I’m not religious so I won’t call it a miracle, but man is he tough. The burnt hands as he laid there with them up over his head with me I think. I wish the entire family a speedy recovery, not just physically but mentally seeing your brother go thru that is traumatic.I couldn’t imagine the emotions the entire family will struggle with.
@@wzbailey God electrocuted this kid. People perform miracles not Gods. Brave human beings put their lives at risk to save him. Skilled doctors did what they could to treat him.
"I gotta get him, right? I gotta get him". He was ready to give his life for this sweet kiddo. In moments like these, it can be so hard to think AND act. It was the officer's quick thinking and actions that saved the little boys life. Mad respect and love ❤
This video floored me!😔 I’m a retired British cop, after 26 years I’ll never forget the children I couldn’t save. I’m in tears just typing this message, but what these officers did is truly amazing. 🙏🏽
I am a mother, grandmother, and registered nurse... I cried through this for so many reasons... the officers did an amazing job and that baby's cries just ripped my heart apart
It’s hard to watch hey. I was electrocuted by 57,000 volts and seeing this video, I can tell ya those kids hurt.. not just now but for months they’ll feel like there on fire I had a towel and a bucket of ice to try cool myself down. My surgeon invented bio thermal membrane, a fake skin to heal the wounds so a grafting takes better. I fought for my life to help save others. I’m the reason these kids have a chance to survive and it’s worth all the ptsd and horror I went through. These kids will have a full life still. Thanks for being a nurse, we all need you more than you think. My nurses would tell we what we are doing that day then the doctor walks in waffles on n leaves. I know it’s the nurses that keep us alive that care, your there day in day out not just to see the patient at 8am then not see em again… it takes a strong mind and heart to do your job, Thankyou again mate. Nurses are a different breed of people, they care…. 😊
"I'm the reason these kids have a chance to survive" dude I really don't think you're the reason your surgeon who invented the stuff might be the reason but I can guarantee you he was probably working on that long before your injury..... I mean no disrespect but I don't think you should take credit for what your surgeon did you should give him all the credit for saving you and inventing something that will help the kids. I may be wrong but I don't see how you have anything to do with it and and that whole part of your comment just really rubbed me the wrong way
@@Doktor-J420 I survived a bad enough accident to use it on. I came out of a coma and was told they didn’t expect me to survive so they’ll do what they can to fix me. They explained they invented btm and wanted to test it on me. I died 8 times in total and kept being resuscitated over 3 months and 20 surgeries. We proved it worked it got signed off to use. It gave the ward a world wide rating for burn’s treatment. Professor John greenwood invented the product in South Australia 🇦🇺. Your right I used the wrong words sorry about that but don’t be but hurt about it. I got no legs can’t sweat or sleep my ptsd is horrible phantom pain that lets me feel body parts I no longer have so you getting mad isn’t much at all haha have a good one bud I’ll word it better next time 😎
@@Doktor-J420 it took 11 seconds for 19,000 volts to pass through my right hand and out my feet 3 times I had an outer body experience telling myself to hold on. I waited 4 and a half hours in an ambulance for a helicopter. They induced me into a coma and flew me 2 hours to a hospital. When they removed my breathing tube they told my family I will die or be in a vegetative state, I rolled over n asked my nurse for a ham cheese n salad sandwich and some rainwater. Three months later I was home riding dirtbikes again. A year later I raced that bike. Next year I’m gonna try to set a landspeed record on a Harley. The surgeon did what he did but I kept myself alive so he could do it. I understood the importance in his voice. He knew he could save my body. My mate glen was burned 95% of his body after my accident, they knew they could save him and his quality of life. 5 years later I now volunteer to help train surgeons.
When I was in 5th grade, I climbed a tree and accidently touched an electrical wire, I have skin grafts on my hand from it, it blew me out of the tree, I lived in these shitty subsidized housing complex that was right next to student housing. A college student was moving and her dad was helping her there, he was a retired cop. He heard the loud BANG and electrical noise and came over, I was laying on the ground...dead...he called 911 and gave me CPR, the ambulance came and took me to the hospital where they airlifted me an hour to a major metro hospital with a trauma/burn center. I owe my life to him, he was a hero. This video popped up on my suggested and I watched it, and here I sit a full grown 40yr old man with tears in my eyes and a knot in my throat, seeing that kids hand, hearing his screams, and seeing that officer risk himself....it hit me hard. Thanks to the officer for his heroic actions, I was that kid 30 years ago.
I hope and pray for this young boy. I cant imagine what he is feeling. This officer is a hero. He risked his life to save another. I hope we get an update on this boy. May God bless him.
speaking as an emergency trauma RN for over 30 years & having worked hand in hand with both police & fire departments….i am so very proud of these officers!! Great job guys!! GOD bless you all & stay safe🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

These are the type of officers you want to serve for your community. Willing to give up their lives for others without hesitation. They also carry themselves like a human being with love and compassion. I tip my hat to them yall!!!
@ShadowXf1 touched a live wire and was electrocuted. The officer was also shocked in the process of saving the boys life. You can google Detroit police shocked saving boy and watch the whole 9 min video.
@ShadowXf1 when they all said wait he was willing to risk his life. You can hear him say I have to try and get him. A true hero in my book. Can't forget the other officer who rubbed his head and comforted him the whole way to the hospital. Like it was one of his own kids.
You can tell. This is what these cops signed up for. The whole "protect and serve." Good men who run into danger to save a child. Then getting him to the ER as fast as they could.
I can clearly understand what he's doing thru , I myself suffered at age to 17 , a simple tooth infection that almost took my life - to getting crushed between 2 cars and many accidents. I'm now 42 and it breaks my heart, not just my kids, but I would take & trade any child pain and suffering.
They’re legit treating him like if it was one of their kids. Mad respect for them officers

As a former EMT, the screams may be awful to listen to but man, they're a wonderful noise, because you know your patient has an airway and he's breathing 💔
As they say, in an incident you don’t concern as much about the screaming ones and concentrate on the quiet ones.
I understand but those screams still broke my heart. Poor baby was in so much pain. 😢
I was thinking 'there's no way his brain will be okay after that' and then he started screaming like that. It's messed up. Hopefully I'm wrong about these assumption
You are.
I was thinking the same thing
"Don't touch him." "I gotta get him. I gotta get him." You could hear the compassion. Not even a hint of fear. Bold and brave. That's a hero.
I agree with you ❤
99.9% of cops are heroes. Thank you.
Absolutely right
This cop was amazing, we need compassion in our police for sure
The scary part with people being electrocuted is if you try to grab them you will be electrocuted also and you will be umable to let go and excape and so thats quickly how you can go from one person being electrocuted to many
For non-electricians that don’t understand the video:
1) The transmission line a few feet above the street was most likely around 7200v or 12470v if shocked phase to phase. Since there’s only one line, the boy was shocked at the lower 7200v. At much higher voltages, he would most likely have fingers or a hand blown off by the arc.
2) This line does not need to be touched to shock you. It may arc, or reach out and touch you like lightning, if you come within about 2.88 inches of it.
3) The arc most likely saved the boys life by blowing him off, preventing him from latching onto the line, as evidenced by the hand burn. He most likely has burns on his feet as well where the circuit was completely. The electricity flowed in through his grounded feet and exited to the wire.
4) Once he was on the ground, he was safe. The damage had been done. The police officer was also safe being a couple feet below the wire. He was not shocked in the video. He was charged with adrenaline and jumpy. There was no actual shock to the officer.
5) An electrician could easily have done what the officer did with no fear since we can assess the danger here is low. However, for the officer to do what he did without even knowing he really was quite safe if extraordinary.
You can see a hole burned/melted in the side of his left sock when he's getting loaded into the vehicle- hand to foot, and whatever the electricity injured on the way.
Thank you
Thanks for the explanation it helped
jurassic park
Very solid and useful info. i've had to jump downed lines during a tornado before, so is it possible if i had gotten within 2.88 inches of them I may have gotten zapped?
That cop didnt take any longer than 5seconds to think and decided his life was worth risking for this young boy. I got nothing but respect for this officer.
All cops decided their life was worth risking even the ones that think they can do something outside of the law. The only differences between cops and civilians are training and permission to conduct what needs to be done. Something cop haters often forget they are human they are both good and bad just like everyone else but they made it their job in our society.

I know some people might think it's horrible to hear the child screaming but trust me, as an EMT it's music to our ears. It means that they are breathing, and their airway is not compromised. Glad these officers were there to help him and transport him to get medical help.
Exactly! As an ER nurse, I always said crying is good! Airway, airway, airway!
It just makes this kind of work extra tough. Definitely hard to not bring it home for everyone involved. Even though he was screaming he might have severe brain damage based on the burns to his head 😭. Might have survived but there might be nothing left 😭

He got hit by the electrical pole
@@Fastonfours there is an underground electrical cable that has been damaged and it's causing electricity to be sent up through the ground and electrocute the boy. he could have just been walking and randomly felt a shock and fell to the ground. The cop risked being electrocuted too when he grabbed him because electricity can be transmitted though touch.
@@sirclark4405 omg
@@sirclark4405not true, his hands are damaged so it’s likely he touched an electrical pole or wire
The fact that they sat with him in the back seat instead of waiting for the ambulance warms my heart. We need cops like these to be leading the force.
Yes
They were at the hospital by then
The vast majority of cops are like this.
@@mikeabbitt8309that’s completely false. snoring doesn’t necessarily mean a blocked airway. and even then, he had a pulse and was breathing; so why is there a need to perform CPR?? they laid him in best of a position as they could, given he had a backpack on. his face was blurred, so we don’t know if his eyes were opened and moving or not. you can’t rely on EMS to be there. if there is a hospital within driving distance, which for the officers, seemed to only be about 5 minutes, then there is zero use waiting 10 minutes for an ambulance, waiting another 5 to get him loaded on, and then another 5 to drive there. all that does is waste time in which the child could be seen by doctors and nurses with adequate facilities.
They are. Everyone forgets that when they shoot a criminal tho
I've been in law enforcement for over 30 years, and I promise you that dealing with injured and deceased children is tough. It gets no easier with time. Gotta love and protect the babies!!❤

These officers were awarded Medals of Valor this week for their efforts in saving this child’s life.
Very deserved
❤ more should, they do a lot for the people.
Any word on the boy's recovery?
Not enough. Not nearly enough. They will be hearing that kids screams for the rest of their lives.
Good to hear.
What exactly happened here?
The officer caressing the boys hair says everything you need to know about his character...how compassionate he is
We need that man made chief he is a real example of a true leader in life
He wasn't caressing his hair, he was looking at the extent of the damage, he had severe burns on the back of his head.
@@snakezulaThat's still compassion. He isn't really trained to do that, but he did it because he cared
Took the words right out my mouth blessing's to those who all that was involved ❤❤
Does anyone know the name of the officer? I feel like as a society we are really quick to judge cops for bad behavior, but we don't reward the good cops. Positive reinforcement
An officer lost his job recently for transporting a 2 year old burn victim to the ER in his police car. Which is the saddest thing for such a hero. When someone goes above and beyond for our children, they deserve respect .
Why?
Yeah this sucks... Liability.. this is not right .. the cop was right
They don't want good cops on the street..
Seriously? Society has become so distorted it is absurd.
We should all be protesting for that cop’s job back…. That’s absolutely ridiculous….
As a firefighter, I respect these officers SO much. I don't know many people who would've taken this massive risk. This is what heroes are.
Agreed, but when it comes to kids I'll do anything. we swore an oath. Gotta hold the firemen's prayer near and dear to us. It would have taken way too long to get a power company out there to shut it down and save him. At the end of the day he did what he had to do.
Man hearing that kid scream breaks my heart glad these officers went above and beyond to save this kid
I'm 52 and in tears listening to that poor kid. Officers were so calming in their way with him. Heroes!
It was heartbreaking!! Poor kid, and I hope he will be okay! ❤ These policemen are definitely heroes!!

That was absolutely horrific hearing him scream like that. That literally broke my heart
Quite the opposite for me. My heart was stopped until I heard him crying. Crying means he's alive and breathing.
@@mattjack3983the screaming is what told me the kids going to be alright.
In a situation like that the quiet unconscious ones are the biggest concern. As soon as you hear him snore earlier in the video you know he’s alive. The snore is a scarier sound than the scream honestly.
@BlobGorillaTag I know, I was hoping someone would go and give him a hug or something, poor kid, he was so scared
@whiteouthamstra I agree the snoring sound could be mistaken for a death rattle at a time like that.
All the officers piling into a single squad car with the boy to take him to the hospital instead of waiting for an ambulance is absolutely legendary. Props!
yeah except if he was in a deadly arrhythmia and delayed defibrillation could have cost him his life. They should have taken him to meet ALS capable paramedics on the way to the hospital not to mention the pain and torture this child went throug while not recoeving pain and memory management. But i get what they were thinking.
Yeah wait like 45 minutes for an ambo, dispatchers would treat these kinds of call as non priority since the kid was breathing - and not as much critical priority as someone who is in cardiac arrest, so yeah it was a good call for officers to rush him to the hospital. Even though the officer's actions were extremely dangerous and he put his own life at risk as well. Now I would like to know how the fuck something like that happened and who is liable to get sued for all they got - city ? why was power not cut off - events like these are extreme emergencies, and calls for a crew to come and cut power. For high voltage lines you can get electrocuted within around 33 feet
@@jimmydandy9364that’s actually not true. Systems typically have tiers for priority vs non priority. Priority being code 3 and the other code 2. Code three runs are Code 3 Runs regardless of nature. Just because he’s breathing does not mean they would divert a unit for a cardiac arrest UNLESS the cardiac arrest (or any other priority call) was closer to that responding unit than the original call.
Its Michigan.... Same clown governor that doesn't like safe drinking water for HER citizens @@jimmydandy9364
It was the right thing to do for this call, seconds count. That being said, it was also a horrible risk the first two who grabbed the kid took and unfortunately I highly doubt that the kid survived or would not be in a vegetative state.
I say this as a first responder.
This video should also come with strong graphic warnings, censoring the kids face alone is not sufficient.
I started crying so hard when the officer said “it’s okay buddy let it all out” those officers are so kind hearted and didn’t hesitate to jump in and help. God bless them and that little boy 🥹
His injuries were so severe. He had burns on his hands,head, back and feet. When he began to scream, I felt so much relief. That meant his breathing was working better and he was becoming aware.I am glad the officers did a scoop and run to get him to the hospital faster. Bless that child and I pray his injuries are healing and he is mentally healing. Those officers put themselves on the line to save him. Electricity is such a fearsome thing.
I was going to note the same about the screams being a bitter sweet sign of progress. The silence in the beginning and then gargling was more scary. Not saying I wish that pain on anyone but his responses towards it in the car were a better sign. Hope he can fully recover
Alright you seem to know a lot about this so wth happened?? I mean i heard that “where’s the wire” at the beginning but can you tell me anything else?
Don't fear electricity, learn about it.

Did anyone see his hands?the pain he must have been in
Yeah, it was so sad! But he also had burns on his head, neck, legs, etc. it was painful
He wasn't conscious. That snoring is called 'agonal breathing'. There's a reason he was screaming without saying anything (plus being unconscious for many minutes straight while struggling to breathe properly). He wasn't close to fully conscious, that's just brain + cardiac injuries making respond in automatic ways. He's got brain damage now + heart and kidney failure and went through cardiac arrest in the hospital. Thankfully he's at home with his family, but it was definitely severe life changing injuries. But hopefully the only pain he consciously felt was after he'd been treated in hospital.
Yeah black from burns 😢 I wonder how long he was down there so glad he’s alive how scary 😖
I love how he said “I gotta get him, right?” But he literally wasn’t asking anyone but himself and he knew it, nobody said anything and he answered in his own head “obviously!” Exemplary example of a good human being right here
well cause his mates where only standing there

Isn't it kind of mindblowing? We got to hear someone do what we do everyday and yet barely notice.

Strange that we don't respond and treat firefighters, EMT, and medical professionals even remotely the same way when they do their job. The fact that we specifically feel the need to celebrate the police when they actually do their job says all there is to be said.
@@cookingwithmonty Agreed
This must be promoted more to show that you are friendly, not scary.

The boy screaming in pain is the best sound you can hear. He is conscious, breathing, and has a heartbeat.
Well that is an odd comment...🤔although I suppose it somehow works.
This is actually true. In medical you always wanna hear the screams and complaints. That means your brain is comprehending.
As an EMT for 8 years you are correct
@@incogspectator3042 as messed up as it is he's right he can still feel pain he's awake he's aware of what's going on he's breathing he could very well be in a coma he could lose the ability to feel pain which would suck hell he could lose the ability to use his limbs

This cop is an example of what it means to be human
No, it's what it means to be a good person.
I'm pretty anti government, but cops like this give me some hope that there's a few good people still in government.
Not many, but this guy's a shining example of one.
@@tedkaczynskiamericanhero3916 Most cops are like this. If presented with a situation where they can help someone like this 99% of cops would do the same thing. There are sooo many examples of cops saving people like this. By choosing a job like this they risk their lives everday just by putting on the uniform.
a man you mean
@@js2sgamer951To be entirely fair, I think there’s more than 1% of cops that abuse the system - or at least, passively take part or let abuse slide in the system in the Us.
However yes, I think it’s sad that so many people get caught in these circlejerks of watching this abuse and assume its the full story. Some cops, at the very least, joined because they wanted to help protect the community. Some would put their lives on the line to protect people, and go through horrible abuse on a daily basis to do so.
The ACAB narrative has always seemed unfairly prejudicial to me, and a bit sad. Just because there IS corruption doesn’t mean you should assume every single person in the force is taking part in it. They aren’t a hive mind. they’re people like us, and yes, the system allows a lot of shit through, and it might need changing, but there’s no reason to project that, without question, onto every single person working as a cop.
To be a man**
As a father I shed a tear because he didn’t even think twice. He said “I have to get him”
My god these cops, bless them all ❤❤
Now that's some GREAT fucking police. Bro risked his life then didn't wait for the ambulance. Boys made it happen and I salute you guys.
This is what "protect and serve" truly means! Kudos to this officer!

Look again- he's still got all his digits intact but they're burned a bit. They're not swelling up like balloons (I burned my hand pretty bad once, and that's what happens) so his hands should be fine in a few weeks. It sure stings like a bitch, though, and he's just a poor little kid.
The fact that they weren't going to wait for EMT shows you how desperate they were to save this boy. Respect to all the officers and may the boy make a speedy recovery.
From what i am seeing i don't think you are totally correct. What would be more accurate to say is the guy who's body cam we are watching wasint going to wait. By the looks of it other cops already showed up and even had the time to put down caution tape. I wouldnt be too hard on them consider the danger here but the only people who really deserve credit here are the two cops who decided to put there life's at risk to save that kid. He didnt set up tape he said right away "i got to get him" and then he did it.
Hes a real officer for the people ive never seen them take someone in there own car .
@billfred9411 yeah I totally agree. I wonder how long that boy was in the water and how strong the current was
@@billfred9411 yup, well said.
Caution tape was already there according to the first officers body cam. Which means SOMEONE knew there was a down wire and left it energized. I hope they are prosecuted.

Just seeing the burns on his hands is crazy. Thank you to the officers who saved this child's life.
he also had some on the top of his head
it's really weird .. why would he just grab the wire? was this suicide attempt?

To the officers who risked their lives and held him in your arms- you are heroes.

What kinda pain and sensations was he feeling minutes after he woke up??
What happened to him. Poor baby, I'm in tears. Thank you
I don't get it..where was the wire and how did the officer get temporarily shocked??
Me too hearing him kike that just breaks my ❤😢
My husband was electrocuted and killed and no one he worked with tried to help him. God bless these officers for this. What amazing heroes. The difference between life and death when it comes to electrocution is swiftness of assistance. They saved that boys life, and I hope they are blessed abundantly for it.
@samirdoncic6395 It was live but I don't know how much voltage it was but you can clearly see the cop get electrocuted as well when he touched him. The boys hands are burned at the point where he tried to pick up the wire and I can only assume its 240v with low amperage going directly to a house or something.
So sorry for your loss😢. My husband is an electrician and I’m always scared this can happen to him.
@@robsp32If it is a feed to a residence, 200+ amps is not low amperage.
@@scott7479if its 200 amps going through him, the kid would be toast
@@robsp32
240v doesn’t even close to the voltage there.
240 will grab ahold of you and not let go, but you can move your eyes and mostly speak, but know something isn’t right and you can’t let go, n gives you a good tingle feeling all over. That wire was prob more like 5000-15000 volts, you could prob here the hum of it, if all the other sounds were taking out of video, n makes your hair stand at 8 ft away which will jump from the wire, several feet away and enter you due to looking for the nearest path to the ground. , throw a 200 grown man like a rag doll and knock you back, like an explosion, all while burning where it entered exited instantly and basically frying everything in between. Essentially energizing the body. N the current was probably jumping from the line to kid still when the officers grabbed him. That’s why when they got him far enough away he started breathing n coming back. They very much did risk there lives, to help him.
Very very lucky child, is an understatement.
Blessings to this child and the officers
I love the way the officer tried to soothe the poor child
As a first responder, I wish i could do what these guys did. He didn't really secure the scene, and that is why the kid is still alive! I can't stop crying because of the treatment this officer gave him! He treated him and spoke to him like he was his own child! I can't, jesus, what a Guardian Angel. I hope to be what you are in my life!
First of all thank you for your service. But I have a question at around 6:45 the kid started screaming do you know what this could be the cause of. I assumed that it was because he was in pain from being electrocuted. What do you think
@@nava8167 pain and probably felt like shit from being super tensed up an everything else to do with electricity. It definitely takes over the body. At the very least any muscles.
Aside from any burns associated from it.
An he was starting to come back to in the squad car and was feeling it all that much more
@@nava8167 maybe his hand rotting with pain from the burns.
@nava8167 I'm pretty sure all his pain receptors were firing on blast mode! Trust me, it hurts to hear him like that, but if he is screaming, he is breathing.

"Secure/check the scene" has always been a flawed step to me
The fact they went CASIVAC rather then waiting on MEDIVAC shows just how severe it is.
Please explain the difference
@VendettahHelsing CASIVAC - Casualty Evacuation, MEDEVAC - Medical Evacuation. Basically, cops didn't wait for a medical vehicle to arrive, just put the boy in the back of a patrol car and went to the hospital.
@@ShoaritafulThank you for the explanation! I learned something new today. I'm glad the officers did what needed to be done without hesitation. ❤

This must absolutely crush his parents to see how distressed & near death their baby was… but at the same time, must bring so much comfort seeing 1st hand how their baby was treated, protected & cared for as if he was their own child!! These Officers are hero’s!!! No hesitation, just grab the kid & hope they don’t get more than a shocked hand in the process… This is what being an Officer is all about & what we are blessed to see 🥹🦸♂️
This had me in tears. The screams of his pain is excruciating to hear. You can already see the blackening of his skin on his hands. Especially in the cop car because the one officer is holding that hand by the wrist and trying to keep the boy from moving it. He’s going to have some painful therapy ahead of him. Those officers are amazing. To pull him away from the wire, which obviously saved his life, and then to make the decision to not wait on the ambulance and to just book it to the hospital themselves, all the while listening to the poor baby’s screams? I just can’t imagine how those officers went home that evening and processed that event. They were heroes for sure!!
Where is the live wire? Everyone just stood around! Except for the one coo. Wth?
Poor little guy. Burns are so, so painful.
once the screams started, I already knew if that happened to me I would've done the same thing if I was that young. Tho, tbh I was actually electrocuted a couple years ago. My hair tips got singed right when it happened. I was cutting vines and ended up cutting the main power line to my house mainly because it was covered in honeysuckle which made me want to clear it, which instantly cut all power off for one side of the house. The left side was totally fine, tho the right side that had the line cut was completely dead. for about a week, before we got it fixed. Also, technically I ended up doing exactly what my dream did by showing what happened when I ended up getting electrocuted. I had the dream less than 6 months before it actually happened.
That was his skin? I thought he was holding something in his hand
Oh, my heart was breaking! He was in so much pain. And that officer, who risked his own life to save him. I cannot stop crying.
I don't have kids, but when that baby started screaming, it damn near ripped my heart out. I'm glad he's ok now.

the amount of compassion that was shown to this kid was touching. i wish there were more people like them in the world.
There are. I used to be one of them, but the public made my professional and personal life too hard due to media and other factors. I quit. I got tired of it. Most did.
There are! It’s just that people like to provoke like toddlers wondering what they can get away with and as SOON as you rub a cop the wrong way, it’s game-over for your “true” intentions.
YOU can be one then!!
Of course there is an amount of compassion being shown for a kid being electrocuted you psychopath. Your social media algorithms take you to dark places because you have a dark soul, there are plenty of loving and caring people that are here to help those in need. Treat others as you would like to be treated. When you see someone in need you help them, one day it will be YOU
There are more people like him. No wishing needed. Just focus on you being one of them too! ❤

My thoughts exactly. I feel horrible for the pain you hear in that scream, but when I heard that all I could think was "thank goodness he's alive". Hope the boy had a full recovery. 😔
For the same reason nurses don't take screaming patients in the ER serious. If u got energy ⚡ to make a fuss, u aren't in critical condition and can wait longer😂 we more worried about the quiet ones looking tired. It's not ignoring patience need but priorities must be made.

Any parent instinct
Or like other guy said…dont need to have kids to be a hero with a big heart. I have none, but I would still risk myself to save someone else’s, bc no kid deserves that
Everyone with a heart feels that, parent or not. When you see someone in danger, and it hits even harder when you see a child or an animal, an elderly person in need or danger-anyone vulnerable-your basic instincts take over your whole body. It hits for ANYONE, vulnerable person or not, if I see another person in danger or needing help I don’t care who you are , you’re a fellow human who needs help. You just spring into action before you even realize what you’re doing. Even writing this makes my chest fill with that feeling thinking about the people I’ve had to treat in the past when I did medical at different large events and festivals. No one talks about how at any festival or event over 3k where there’s drinking or drugs you have one death every time.. always , always, always a seizure from drug overdose. Always a seizure …
Alcohol poisoning sometimes too… those ones usually we can get to the hospital in time…
@AndrewRisitano Totally Agree With you!😘👍🏽🥰🥰🥰
This was making me tear up. The way he talked to the kid while he was in immense pain, after pulling him out, wow. These are the cops we need.
THAT IS NOT THE SOUND OF BREATH YOU MORONS. not until he is screaming in agony by a true miracle no thanks to these idiot cops . There are soooo many things wrong here. This is one of those feel good civil servant stories that departments run with for good publicity. I'm not taking anything away from what the cops did, it was in deed a dangerous situation, but we simply don't give them the training they need!
1. That boy is NOT breathing. Multiple cops say "he's breathing' They report to the dispatcher that he's breathing. He is NOT breathing or snoring. He is agonal breathing which means his brain is being injured due to a lack of oxygen and it's a reflex. It's the bodies last ditch effort to get oxygen to the brain Someone in agonal breathing is VERY close to death. People in agonal breathing often are in cardiac arrest, or suffered a stroke, drowning. suffocation, electrocution, drug overdose... What they needed to do was check for a pulse and start CPR and/or ventilations. The fact that he came out of agonal breathing on his own is a miracle.
. Police shouldn't transport. Now I don't know what the EMS response time is in that area, but in most cities with an EMS system it is better to wait for EMS than transport in a police cruiser. Usually patients die in the cruiser on the way to the hospital. The news says it took them 4 minutes to get to the hospital. The ambulance probably could have gotten to the scene in under 4 minutes and started medical intervention sooner. Also if the patient goes into arrest on the way to the hospital in the back of an ambulance they have medical equipment. Oxygen, D-fib, medications, etc. The police cruiser has none of that. You can't even perform CPR in a cop car Police should almost NEVER transport a patient.
3. This took place at the corner of Charlotte and Sharrow streets. Check out Google street view. In the video the wire is four feet off the floor running from the white sign on the right to possibly the porch of the red house on the left. You can clearly see the wire in contrast with the white house on the left. Also if you look past the white sign on the right you can see the parking lot is also taped off with caution tape. Clearly the wire is down in the parking lot, runs across the sign and over to the red house. The boy is no longer touching the wire. The wire is not touching the street. I highly doubt that cop got shocked. The officer grabbing the other ankle sure didn't. Makes no sense.
disgusting that the city allowed the electric to still be on when there was a downed wire near the school no crossing guards and no one there to tell the kids going to school that the city is garbage and hasn't shut off electrical to the downed wire from at least 12 hours prior PLENTY OF TIME TRASH HUMANS secondly THIS BOY WAS IN AGONY THAT THE COPS WILL NEVER COMPREHEND NEITHER WILL MOST OF US. The also probably caused brain damage because they didn't do basic stuff that we leaned in school as kids about life saving. Did anyone check for a pulse? He was dying and as this post I am about to copy paste here states IT IS A MIRACLE THAT THESE COPS DID NOT KILL HIM his brother is the hero who used his book bag to knock the wire away out of his hands the boys were walking to school they had no idea that there was a downed wire they jist tried to get to school f everyone in this town except those two boys❤

Him rubbing that baby’s head made me cry 😭 this officer is the model example of what a police officer should be! I have so much respect for that man ❤
Baby? he's 4 feet too tall for that title boo
@gawrgarrz do you wake up and decide to be a loser everyday?
you on crack?@@Somemusicguy1995

@gawrgarrz some of our sons are that tall while still in elementary school. For us moms, we refer to all kids below a certain age as "baby". You can't tell age by height/size, and he was worthy of the nurturing he received, regardless of age.
Omg..😢 that poor kid. Those screams, did you see his hands..I pray that he's healed now.
*Edit* I read Blake made a full recovery & the officer received a medal.🏅 Bravo!!!!
Oh thank God he recovered! Hearing those howls of pain was heart wrenching!
Thank you for the update, I'm so happy for him!😢
hell yes thats awesome all the way around
The screams were from the Mom
Thank you for that update! As a mother my heart was racing!
Hearing his screams is just heart wrenching. That poor baby. Those officers are angels
I knowww😭
As a mom his screams broke my heart😢
Yes that poor baby. His crying made my heart hurt
Those screams are life.
Poor baby! His screams broke my heart! Good job officers for caring for Blake like your own!
As a father that deals with high voltage (Generators, Switchgears, Transformer's, ATS, etc.). I give them props on how law enforcement handle the situation. It brought tears to my eyes.
As an accountant, thanks for sharing.
One Lineman to another Lineman this hit me pretty hard too
Those screams....cops probably diddnt know this guy's arm was cooked from the inside
Ye abut I mean they still got to take him and touch his body they still have to go through it
Can you please explain what happened?
Being a parent makes this extremely hard to watch, & not tear up. Respect to the officer that jumped into action, stayed calm, to save this young child.
Man n my baby sitting right here I'm in tears this is so hard to watch
You do not need to be a parent to tear up man, its human.
@@seancoyote You’re 100% correct. I’m just saying, because I am a parent, it makes it even harder for me personally.
👍@@AGthaKING
I have been crying since I saw the other little boy trying to get to him. That officer deserves everything good in the world. He risked it all to save this boy and he talked to the boy as if that was his child.
They held that poor boy so tight while he cried; you know this wasn’t an easy one, but those officers did a DAMN GOOD JOB saving him.
Cussing rn does not matter
@@dawnhagan6683 Wdym.
@@dawnhagan6683damn? That’s barely a cuss bro
@@NooberDooberSchloober yeah idk what he is yapping abt
@@dawnhagan6683 ya it is not even a cuss word
The way that officer held that boy brought me to tears. I can only pray that all officers treat our children like this.
As a dad, this hit me hard. Damn near made me cry. This officer is a hero
Totally agreed!!! This Officers parents have a lot to be proud of having him as their son! Blessing's to them all, hope they are still doing well well after the happening.
I'm fucking SHAKING. I want my son home right now so I can hug him.
My husband refused to watch it because it definitely would have made him cry.
yeah, same but when the kid started to shout I had to turn it off
It made me cry, not even gonna lie. Idc. I can't imagine having to roll up on anyone's kid like that, especially my boy.
The screaming was a good sign, but it tears my heart out. The love and care shown by these officers is stunning.
I'm pretty sure someone else was screaming on the left side, as much as i hear with headphones, who thought he was dead. Also it wouldn't make sense for the police to say "he's still breathing!" If he just screamed his lungs out.
@@denaze05he was screaming in the car
@@denaze05did you not watch the video or just hate cops?
@@michellevoulez4507
Prolly both, the ignorance was shining thru.🤦🏾♀️
As gutwrenching, as that babies screams are, it means he will survive it means he is breathing it means his brain is registering something it means his heart is pumping it means that he is pulling oxygen into his lungs
As hard as it is to hear his screaming it is that small solace it means he’ll be surviving this as painful as it is to hear it means he is alive and I get it. I’m sobbing both from the anxiety of the situation as well as the relief his screams mean
When the officer said “I Gotta get him” tears started flowing for me!!! For all the criticism officers receive and while some is certainly deserved…. Those men and women doing there best serving our communities deserve all the accolades that could be given. A young man is alive today because some heroes came to his rescue!
Amen.
Cody, best comment 💗
Nice comment. Respect 🤙🌊🦆
Sadly many good deeds done by officers will be countered by few cases where they abuses their power because internet works that way doesn't want to see good side bit only negative actions
@@juhakeranen3225 No one is ignoring the good side, some of us do point out horrible s*** that has been ignored for what feels like an eternity. Don't try to conflate the reality of murderers with badges existing to the concept of people being irrationally anti cop. The bad stuff needs to be pointed out too.
Watching these police officers working fearlessly together to save this young man and stay with him through his pain and screaming brought tears to ny eyes. So proud of them.
This guy did more than people realize, went against all training. Any first responder is trained scene safety is first, basically don’t turn into another victim. This guy knew the hazards & still saved that kid. He’s for sure a hero to that kid
Should have hopped in to prevent step potential.
@@LEF3133 Relax, he is a police officer not an electrician. However, you are correct.
What was electrocuting him?
looks like a normal street, no cables, nothing.
I would have walked right in 😅
AMEN!!!‼️‼️
@@yaykruser Exactly what i was thinking.
Also who put up the warning tape that was everywhere?
That poor child's screams absolutely broke my heart.
I know one of the hardest things for me is to see one in pain especially the younger ones.
Screams mean he’s alive. The silence was deafening to me. I felt relieve and sadness that he was in so much pain and fear, but it could’ve been so much worse. I’m not religious so I won’t call it a miracle, but man is he tough. The burnt hands as he laid there with them up over his head with me I think. I wish the entire family a speedy recovery, not just physically but mentally seeing your brother go thru that is traumatic.I couldn’t imagine the emotions the entire family will struggle with.
@@Sara-xk1nsit is a miracle only God can do
@@wzbailey God electrocuted this kid. People perform miracles not Gods. Brave human beings put their lives at risk to save him. Skilled doctors did what they could to treat him.
@@wzbailey Nah, God most likely doesn't exist
"I gotta get him, right? I gotta get him". He was ready to give his life for this sweet kiddo. In moments like these, it can be so hard to think AND act. It was the officer's quick thinking and actions that saved the little boys life. Mad respect and love ❤
Those Officers deserve mad respect and should have received Act of Valor medals. Amazing Officers
This video floored me!😔 I’m a retired British cop, after 26 years I’ll never forget the children I couldn’t save. I’m in tears just typing this message, but what these officers did is truly amazing.
🙏🏽
What, all the WHITE ones while you racially gaslighted and were standoffish with all the brown ones?
Sit down accolade-chasing Cletus.
Thank you for your service
You did amazing thank you for all have done for us
thank you for your service!!
Thanks for protecting the government and Not the people! :) slave
I am a mother, grandmother, and registered nurse... I cried through this for so many reasons... the officers did an amazing job and that baby's cries just ripped my heart apart
It’s hard to watch hey. I was electrocuted by 57,000 volts and seeing this video, I can tell ya those kids hurt.. not just now but for months they’ll feel like there on fire I had a towel and a bucket of ice to try cool myself down. My surgeon invented bio thermal membrane, a fake skin to heal the wounds so a grafting takes better. I fought for my life to help save others. I’m the reason these kids have a chance to survive and it’s worth all the ptsd and horror I went through. These kids will have a full life still. Thanks for being a nurse, we all need you more than you think. My nurses would tell we what we are doing that day then the doctor walks in waffles on n leaves. I know it’s the nurses that keep us alive that care, your there day in day out not just to see the patient at 8am then not see em again… it takes a strong mind and heart to do your job, Thankyou again mate. Nurses are a different breed of people, they care…. 😊
"I'm the reason these kids have a chance to survive" dude I really don't think you're the reason your surgeon who invented the stuff might be the reason but I can guarantee you he was probably working on that long before your injury..... I mean no disrespect but I don't think you should take credit for what your surgeon did you should give him all the credit for saving you and inventing something that will help the kids. I may be wrong but I don't see how you have anything to do with it and and that whole part of your comment just really rubbed me the wrong way
Me too But HalleluYah
@@Doktor-J420 I survived a bad enough accident to use it on. I came out of a coma and was told they didn’t expect me to survive so they’ll do what they can to fix me. They explained they invented btm and wanted to test it on me. I died 8 times in total and kept being resuscitated over 3 months and 20 surgeries. We proved it worked it got signed off to use. It gave the ward a world wide rating for burn’s treatment. Professor John greenwood invented the product in South Australia 🇦🇺. Your right I used the wrong words sorry about that but don’t be but hurt about it. I got no legs can’t sweat or sleep my ptsd is horrible phantom pain that lets me feel body parts I no longer have so you getting mad isn’t much at all haha have a good one bud I’ll word it better next time 😎
@@Doktor-J420 it took 11 seconds for 19,000 volts to pass through my right hand and out my feet 3 times I had an outer body experience telling myself to hold on. I waited 4 and a half hours in an ambulance for a helicopter. They induced me into a coma and flew me 2 hours to a hospital. When they removed my breathing tube they told my family I will die or be in a vegetative state, I rolled over n asked my nurse for a ham cheese n salad sandwich and some rainwater. Three months later I was home riding dirtbikes again. A year later I raced that bike. Next year I’m gonna try to set a landspeed record on a Harley. The surgeon did what he did but I kept myself alive so he could do it. I understood the importance in his voice. He knew he could save my body. My mate glen was burned 95% of his body after my accident, they knew they could save him and his quality of life. 5 years later I now volunteer to help train surgeons.
When I was in 5th grade, I climbed a tree and accidently touched an electrical wire, I have skin grafts on my hand from it, it blew me out of the tree, I lived in these shitty subsidized housing complex that was right next to student housing. A college student was moving and her dad was helping her there, he was a retired cop. He heard the loud BANG and electrical noise and came over, I was laying on the ground...dead...he called 911 and gave me CPR, the ambulance came and took me to the hospital where they airlifted me an hour to a major metro hospital with a trauma/burn center. I owe my life to him, he was a hero. This video popped up on my suggested and I watched it, and here I sit a full grown 40yr old man with tears in my eyes and a knot in my throat, seeing that kids hand, hearing his screams, and seeing that officer risk himself....it hit me hard. Thanks to the officer for his heroic actions, I was that kid 30 years ago.
Great Recovery So Many Angels all over the World ❤️.
❤❤❤
😯 This is an incredible story! Are you still in touch with him?
How are your hands? I'm worried about his.
Glad you’re still with us 🙏
They are heros, angel's and amazing human beings. Thank you!
Hearing that little boy in pain made me cry. Prayers for him and the police who saved him.

Grow up.
I hope and pray for this young boy. I cant imagine what he is feeling. This officer is a hero. He risked his life to save another. I hope we get an update on this boy. May God bless him.
@@Yourmumsaslaggyheffer
Grow up?
@@Yourmumsaslaggyhefferthe irony of saying "grow up" yet getting mad over people being thoughtful. Lmao, follow your own advice kiddo.
@@Yourmumsaslaggyhefferkys
speaking as an emergency trauma RN for over 30 years & having worked hand in hand with both police & fire departments….i am so very proud of these officers!! Great job guys!! GOD bless you all & stay safe🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Whatever medical staff person that was assisting with getting him out of the truck... they did not sound very compassionate. 😒
@@ccj.9579agree that was messed up , she annoyed me.
@@ccj.9579I actually didn’t think so at all. She was outside, waiting, ready to help him and she sounded like she was trying to assess the situation she didn’t sound rude at all.
@@alissacook6937 Ok! Well, who was she saying "come on, come on, come on," to? The officers or the patient?...either way... It's ok to have a difference of opinion!
@@ccj.9579Not really. Ladies out there ready to go the second they get there, and all these aholes can do is comment on her tone saying it’s messed up. She’s focused on saving a life not starting a bbc kids channel. “Difference of opinion” more like “out of touch losers grasping at anything they can to complain about”.
These are the type of officers you want to serve for your community. Willing to give up their lives for others without hesitation. They also carry themselves like a human being with love and compassion. I tip my hat to them yall!!!
What happend to the kid in the first place?
@ShadowXf1 touched a live wire and was electrocuted. The officer was also shocked in the process of saving the boys life. You can google Detroit police shocked saving boy and watch the whole 9 min video.
@@trose432 oh damn, that's a very brave cop then 🏅
@ShadowXf1 when they all said wait he was willing to risk his life. You can hear him say I have to try and get him. A true hero in my book. Can't forget the other officer who rubbed his head and comforted him the whole way to the hospital. Like it was one of his own kids.
@@ShadowXf1this is what most officers are like you let a very small amount of bad apples destroy your view of them.
You can tell. This is what these cops signed up for. The whole "protect and serve." Good men who run into danger to save a child. Then getting him to the ER as fast as they could.
Big strong 8 year old. I’m glad he made it. I can’t imagine how his brother felt being there and not being able to help him.
Seriously. That breaks my heart
IM GLAD HE MADE IT TOO I CANT BELIEVE THAT BIG BOY ONLY 8
I can clearly understand what he's doing thru , I myself suffered at age to 17 , a simple tooth infection that almost took my life - to getting crushed between 2 cars and many accidents. I'm now 42 and it breaks my heart, not just my kids, but I would take & trade any child pain and suffering.
@@arianduran1725 I'm older than you, I feel same and happily take your pain as well, I'm old enough to be your mom.
8 years old? Really?
