Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's illegal, and you can be held accountable.
In related news, there was a big PSA campaign in Memphis not too long ago about not calling 911 unless there were an emergency. It was called 911 -- When Life Is on the Line. It showed billboards of cats in trees and stuff like that. Some where pretty gruesome: I remember a radio spot that was talking about this fictional guy's funeral -- his family couldn't get through to 911 in time.
