I've only called 911 personally once, and the conversation went thusly:
"911, what's your emergency?"
"Hi, I'm at [address], I have a kidney stone and I'm alone."
"Do you want us to drive you to the hospital?"
"That'd be great."
"Okay."


That said, I actually agree with you, and with the anon upthread who noted that a more realistic 911 call can ramp up tension--and I'd add that an unrealistic one can take me out of the moment and destroy the tension.

The key part is that you did manage to inform them of your address. I realistically expect any emergency call to need that being included.

Man, I remember the most intense time I called 911 (I was being actively threatened by a dude like ten feet away and coming towards me, who had already beaten someone else unconscious) I was in panic because I was on this hike-and-bike path that had no street name, AND I COULDN'T NAME IT. Because panic. (Actually, now that I think of it, I can't remember its name NOW.) So I was babbling "I'm on that trail thingy by X station and OH GOD PLEASE COME NOW HE'S COMING"

I have to give them credit, they were there in like five minutes. With a totally failtastic description like that, I expected them to need a lot of time, but I guess I got really lucky!
