A really strange and wild TikTok featuring a man running at full speed away from an ambulance, where seconds before he'd been on a stretcher ready to be loaded in, has gone viral.
The man, wearing a white T-shirt and khaki shorts, forcibly pulls away from several health and emergency service workers before running, full tilt, away from them.
The workers don't appear to give chase and the man falls to the ground shortly after before picking himself back up and running.

While running away, he also runs into the waiter of a nearby restaurant and causes the man to spill his entire tray of food.
Most people's reactions focused on the price of an ambulance in the USA, which can add a significant cost to an already outrageously high healthcare bill and is often not covered by insurance.

Ambulances in the USA can cost up to $450 even with insurance. Without, it is several thousands. Airlifts, which pull injured folks to hospitals via airplanes or helicopters, can go up to $21,000.
Knowing that, we'd run away too.

We hope that server can explain to his boss what happened, and accurately, since it's such a ridiculous situation.
