As it happens there is an exception: when there is a life in danger, police can question without an arrest and without Mirandizing. He referred to it as a "Quarrels exception" (spelling from the closed captioning).

Update: "Quarles exception"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_v._Quarles

"New York v. Quarles, 467 U.S. 649 (1984), was a decision by the United States Supreme Court regarding the public safety exception to the normal Fifth Amendment requirements of the Miranda warning."
