Is Jasper Schiringa (Hero-Holland) gonna get a bill for the emergency treatment of his burns?

Get ready for a four figure (American) reality check, Jasper!

1. Guess he did - just

saw him on abc and his right hand was bandaged.

2. He should get a medal

I'm sure if he got billed for medical expenses, private donors would rush in to pay them.

3. What do you mean "if he got billed"? ... He was treated. He gets a bill. America, we're #1

Will it be four figures or five?

4. I thought we were 37?

Did I get that number wrong?

6. I would think that the airline would have something

that automatically covers any medical treatment needed as a result of something that happened on a flight, that did not involve a pre-existing condition. I imagine that people get bumped heads during turbulent flights, leg sprains for climbing up and down boarding stairs, etc., and the airlines do this as a way of keeping lawsuits down.

If I'm wrong, a bill will surely be reported, and contributions would flow his way, most likely from at least one of his fellow passengers. I know I'd kick in a few bucks towards it.
