RIP Mr Mantooth
googling him I found out his involvement with EMTs
>He served as a spokesperson for the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) and the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC), and was a lifetime member of the National Association of EMTs (NAEMT). Along with Mantooth co-produced Into the Unknown: The Paramedics' Journey, a documentary shedding light on the challenges and realities of modern EMS work,

Loved watching Emergency as a kid. Especially with a firefighter dad. He’d always comment “where’s the smoke?” whenever they had scenes of fires inside buildings.

My wife and I watched a lot of reruns of the show.
She said "Emergency" really raised awareness of the importance of paramedics and EMT's.
RIP Mr. Mantooth
