Once two hunters went hunting in the forest. One of them suddenly fell down by accident. He showed the whites of his eyes and seemed to have ceased breathing. The other hunter soon took out his mobile phone to call the emergency center for help. The operator said calmly:"First, you should make sure that he is already dead." Then the operator heard a gunshot from the other end of the phone and next he heard the hunter asking:"What should I do next?" 兩個獵人進森林裏打獵,其中壹個獵人不慎跌倒,兩眼翻白,似已停止呼吸。另壹個獵人趕緊拿出手機撥通緊急求助電話。接線員沈著地說:“第壹步,要先確定妳的朋友已經死亡。”於是,接線員在電話裏聽到壹聲槍響,然後聽到那獵人接著問:“第二步怎辦?”
