    I once called 911 in my country here in the UK! All I heard was a voice coming from my pocket. I got out my phone and it said 911 emergency call. I just asked if I was going to get a fine, they said no and I put the phone down. The police didn't show up, in England you call 911 even though the number is 999 or 112. I've also accidently called the emergency services by dialling 112 thinking I was calling my operator, that's how I know 112 is the universal emergency number. Some callous moron where I live calls 999 on the phone boxes just to waste their time, I always ring BT operator to report it, not the police!

    One morning I wanted to enter my password and I accidentally pressed emergency call. Then it was too late... the phone already rang 112 and when the operator picked up, I explained to the operator that I didnt mean to call them and it was an accident while being scared. Once I heard that she said its ok it happens, I suddenly calmed down and asked: "so im not going to get in trouble?" And she said no. Then i said goodbye and hung up. It turns out that Inothing happened that day.

      I did this while ago it's so scary. I accidentally dialed the emergency and right away it dialed 911 for me and he said "911 what's your emergency" "need an ambulance" I said trying to be calm "no I accidentally dialed y'all's number by accident I was going to put in my password digits and dialed y'all I'm sorry and he just said okay thanks for telling us bye. Then I said okay bye I'm sorry again lol cause then I was a little spooked and luckily nobody has shown up or anything. What a relief 😮‍💨😅

      How did you manage to hang up even though your phone broke?
