"Untold Stories of the E.R." is a fast-paced medical series that blends re-enactments of real emergency room cases with comments by the actual physicians and nurses involved in the procedures. Often the patients give first-person accounts as well, and some even play themselves during the re-enactments.

An alligator snapping turtle is clamped to a man's neck; an impending hurricane; impaled by a chainsaw.

Two skydivers are impaled by a fence post; multiple patrons stop breathing; a bride's finger gets stuck in a make-up jar.

A party attendee becomes paralyzed; a boy crushed by an ATV; a girl injects herself with epinephrine accidentally.

A hospital worker feels like she is dying; a physician's young son is her patient; wild mushroom picking.
