The Pitt star Noah Wyle faced with passenger medical emergency on flight to UK

The Pitts Noah Wyle has revealed he was presented with a fellow passenger’s health emergency during a recent flight to the UK.

Speaking on The Scott Mills Show on BBC Radio 2 on Monday (30 March), the actor, who also played John Carter in ER, was asked if he could save someone in an emergency.

Wyle revealed that as he was flying to the UK, an announcement was made over the tannoy asking if anybody onboard had medical experience.

 ”I slunk down so low into my seat,” he said.

“I will confess to total cowardice in that moment,” explaining that prior to boarding the plane, several passengers noticed him from The Pitt and informed him they were fans.

He confirmed that a medical professional was in fact onboard the plane and he did not need to get involved.
