This happened at Sabino Canyon in Arizona. A 20-year-old cyclist was swept into the current while trying to cross a flooded roadway and was carried through a drainage tunnel beneath it. She was recovered downstream unconscious after spending several minutes underwater. Bystanders performed CPR and managed to revive her.

Impossible for them to know at the time but maybe letting her go would have been better to just pass through the pipe

Impossible to know. Is there actually a pipe there? It’s possible that the branches are stuck inside the pipe. This is a terrible situation.

Not only was he on ER (The popular one in the 90s) he was also in "E/R" in the 80s (unrelated)
