Ryan Howell is not a medical professional. He spent 10 years as an archaeologist and the
last 5 years as a festival planner for Tulsa, helping to manage such icons as Linde Oktoberfest Tulsa,Folds of Honor FreedomFest, and many more. Through his varied career, he has been
trained and kept current in CPR, never thinking he would have to use it. Until one day, he
did. In his spare time, he is a storyteller. Ryan Howell was named Best Storyteller in Tulsa
2015 and host of the Story Club Tulsa podcast and live show. Ryan has been featured in storytelling festivals aroundOklahoma, at the Tulsa Performing Arts Center, and NPR’s Tales from the South. During
COVID lockdown in 2020, Ryan was named by Newsweek Magazine as a “Hero of the
Pandemic” for sneaking around Turkey Mountain in a Bigfoot costume to promote social
distancing. Yep, that was him. All of the stories he tells are true. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
I was the CPR Coordinator for a large metro hospital for 5 years. We taught CPR and what to do if someone was choking. It is heartwarming to hear of a successful outcome. Thanks for sharing. See-you WERE his hero!
This story is absolutely astounding.
Thank you.
What a moving story! Thank God for every day heroes.
Good story. I have been taking first responder classes for the past 5 years. I have dreams of strangers needing help and I am the only one around. I would not want to be in a situation where someone needed help and I couldn't because I did not know what to do. Everyone should train at least once a year.
Beautifully told and v confronting Many thanks.
I can tell you as an emt, you did everything right. I’d also like to say- that nurse knew what she was doing by talking loudly about bringing him into surgery. That means he had a fighting chance and was stable enough to continue care.
Wow Ryan, what a powerful and well told story. Thought provoking too. Thank you.
Way to go Ryan!
Amazing Stuff. Everyone should watch this! CPR is so valuable.
Very brave! What a hero, Ryan!
You were likely in shock yourself. Thank you for giving awareness to the aftermath of emergency situations.
