Roth abandons rock, becomes a paramedic
November 17, 2004
Flamboyant rocker David Lee Roth, the former Van Halen frontman, isn't what he used to be. (Who is, you say? Ha!)
Diamond Dave, now 50, has been riding for several weeks with a New York ambulance crew in training to become a paramedic, the New York Post reported Tuesday.
"I have been on over 200 individual rides now," Roth said. "Not once has anyone recognized me, which is perfect for me."
His training seems to be going well. Several weeks ago in the Bronx, Roth saved the life of a heart attack victim by using a defibrillator.
He takes his work so seriously that he did not want publicity so that it would not "diminish what I am trying to do here." He has said that he did not want the neighborhoods he was working in named so that he would not draw attention to himself or coworkers.
"You would never know you were dealing with a rock 'n' roll guy," said Linda Reissman, Roth's EMS consultant and tutor. "His commitment really is touching. He wants to help people."
