About this listen

Dan Farnworth brings vividly to life his astonishing experiences as a medic working on the frontline of the UK Ambulance Service. When the 999 call goes out, he has little idea what he will find when he gets there.

Having worked in the emergency services for more than fifteen years, Dan has seen it all. In 999, he shares stories that are sometimes sad, occasionally hilarious, often moving, but always inspirational. However, the work also takes its emotional toll. Which was why he set up a mental health campaign that helps those in his profession suffering from PTSD – something that struck him after a truly shocking event. His story will make you see our ambulance service in a completely new way.

On all levels this audio book is fantastic in my opinion. Just the right amount of detail, amusing at times and so sad at times but so well written and narrated. I wish there was another volume. If ever I need an ambulance I would like them to be just like Dan.

Excellent listen

Excellent listen and really does open up your eye to the amazing work our frontline emergency service workers do and also how very frustrating and sad of certain situations of the ugly reality of some call outs they face each and every day but despite all this, the keep going. Loved it, well written and executed!

Dan's brilliant. now I'm not saying that because I favor Dan over another writer. no. What Dan has written is quite the master piece of books.

From small trauma to death, the experiences he has gone through personally are devastating. amongst the elite of the front line. it exposes the real, the spirit crushing, the happy times, a full wack of emotions.

You can feel the passion he has for people, wanting to give more, and do more, and be a better person, to help people. I'm on chapter 10 but so far I would listen again.

it's really interesting, and really helpful. always when you listen have an open mind. for me it has been emotional. it's really personal. Well written, and extensively detailed.

hats of to you sir. you should be utterly proud of yourself.

The spirit. it's above and beyond
