Not to ruin the joke, but I think you actually can text 911.

EDIT: Only in some places, not everywhere.

Also there is 112 for a lot of places that aren't North America (and many more numbers).

I'm pretty sure in Germany text won't work. But you could probably send a fax. Response times may vary.
