Ya know when it happened to me, i forgot what happened, but for some reason voiceover went totally stupid, and all of a sudden i heard the phone ringing in my ear, and i knew what had happened, it was calling 911. Now i actually work in public safety so we get these calls all the time. The came on the phone and i said, sorry guys, accidental, and they were very appreciative that i stayed on the phone. Then my mom who was downstairs, called me and said you OK? I told her everything was fine, and it was accidental. I'm glad it atleast works.
