    The person calling seems very reluctant to answer the question as to what happened... *perhaps* because the answer might be something like "Well, Michael Jackson's personal doctor shot him up with demerol... and Jackson's been taking prescription drugs as well. We didn't want to call 9/11 immediately because than you might find out we were giving a bunch of drugs we shouldn't have been."


    It's what's left out of the call..... *perhaps* MJ was murdered by a drug dealer with an MD??? Shades of Anna Nicole Smith anyone?

    I was shocked they played this on NPR.


    Like, my jaw dropped.

    Listened to it and WTF? A doctor on scene who it is assumed is doing CPR with the patient in a bed? That does NOTHING. It would make chest compressions ineffective.


    The 911 operator was right to have them move him to the floor, but wrong that this doc supersedes his better judgment in this situation. Crikey! Now I'm sick about this all over again.

    I ain't gonna listen to it cause I've still never fully recovered from the Joaquin Phoenix 911 call.

    @misslinda: Not advocating you listen to the call, but it's not anywhere near that traumatic.

    @TriedandTrue: Yes, the call he placed for River. Very haunting. I figured this couldn't be anything close to that, but still, I like to keep the actual moments of anyone's death at arm's length.

    I heard it and the operator repeated "So he's not breathing?" and "So he's not conscious?" every 20 seconds, the point of which I do not know.
