Emergency Voicemail: A Firefighter's Life-Saving Tip for Low Battery Situations

In a recent social media post, a French firefighter shared an unconventional yet potentially life-saving safety tip for individuals facing emergencies with critically low phone battery. The advice centers on utilizing one's voicemail as a crucial communication tool when direct calls are no longer possible. The firefighter, known as "strike workout" on social media, explains that if you find yourself lost during a hike, involved in a car accident, or otherwise incapacitated with only 5% battery remaining, you should quickly change your phone's voicemail message. This new message should clearly state your full name, your precise location, and a brief description of your situation, including any injuries or specific dangers. "Even if you have no battery, it will go directly to the voicemail," the firefighter explained. "People who call you will be able to listen to the message and quickly find you." This innovative approach ensures that even if your phone dies, anyone attempting to contact you will receive vital information that could aid in your rescue. The tip highlights the importance of proactive preparation for unforeseen circumstances.
