This is great content, keep the good work and above all stay safe 🇨🇺👨‍🚒🚒🇨🇦

Yeah the door at my fire school is abit more heavier than at the training center in my town where most people needed this extra hook leverage, I did not get this skills last time when I took my practical test and failed four other skills, but I could get it next time I test whether I retest next month or April

This is clever and a great technique, but if the lock has been picked and turned to move the deadbolt in and open the door, can’t you exit the dwelling, close the door, then turn the still-picked lock back to the locked position (extending the deadbolt again)?

This was well explained! Way to go Sis! Keep spreading the good word!

“DUDE FLASH HOOD” genuinely made me laugh. everyone’s been there at least one😭

Sensei, you made something that used to confuse me, so easy to understand! Thank you, Sensei. P.S. Come teach at the Women in Fire Austin 2026.

Yes I agree with the ratio achievement of the halligan. But that not equal for everyone. A person with more body mass will make it loom easier. I seen in your videos it took several ugha dughas. Mass has an advantage.

awesome

Regarding what can be used for blocking (in place of wood) to increase spread: the logging industry makes extensive uses of plastic felling wedges that get hammed into chain saw cuts. They are cheap and tough, but designed to be cuttable (to avoid destroying tools) which also makes them easy to modify. They are also expected to be used up and replaced.

Gloves!!!

Awesome 👍 This trick Doesn't work very well when the door is well hung/tight fitted, or there is a seal/gasketting. Sometimes you can push on the door to give yourselves more of a gap, but it makes the deadbolt harder to slide in sure to the friction. Also you might run into the tape slipping off the deadbolt latch when pulling too hard. An extra wrap on the latch so the tape can tape onto itself and hold itself better.

Dumb, you can’t extinguish an EV fire. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Good shit

Pocket?

Was able to pop a door super easily with your mini J-Tool the other day, so thank you for taking the time to teach that. I prefer to make my own tools if I can (I'm cheap like that), what would you recommend for a DIY Swipe Tool? Or is that one you recommend biting the bullet and buying.

I've been on for 26 plus years. I've never seen webbing stored in a sleeve. Thanks for the demo

So that is the kimura one

The nozzle can be dragged from the handle… how did I never think of this

Neat

I’ve got something similar to the triblade, are you finding you’re having to gap most doors to allow the blade to do its thing? Also, are you ever having to put a good amount of up/down pressure on the locking mechanism with the tool? I see a lot of similar videos where they are even lightly hitting down on it.

Did you just bend the rod by hand or get it fab’d?

thank you for the demonstration,.it helps a lot!

Excellent video, thank you so much

Remember, point the Halligan spike at your wrist when doing this!😃

Does your department have auxiliary scba masks?

Thank you! I’m waiting to hear if I’ve been hired by the FD…I am also 5’4” and seeing tips like this helps a lot as well as takes away any doubts about my small size! I know I’m strong enough to do the job but I may need to employ different techniques than the taller or heavier FF’s. Appreciate the video!

Amazing video. Good job sister

Like the vid, But wondering how many fire fighters could lift 75 lbs. And transport it, Let alone 100 lbs.

12GA helps.

Thanks for

Just get a sling

Simple machines be hitting hard.

Wow

Gloves?

This person is not wearing an SCBA and his center of gravity is way too far off the ladder to be considered safe.

That looks wicked scary,

I would humbly ask you to consider a slight change to the order of life, fire, layout, based on the tool we use for this. Our TIC. Consider, L2F. Life, Layout, Fire. This runs in progression to how we should consider using our TIC. Life and layout are items that are located low to mid in the compartment we have access to. As life is often not readily apparent due to victim temp , location and the attempted equalization of ambient temps, we want to use the maximum pixel rate on our TIC. This means snapshot views while TIC is in high sensitivity mode. I am automatically observing furnishings and doorways during this low to mid scan. Looking higher for fire progression and thermal absorption of surroundings will cause my TIC to switch to low sensitivity mode and I will loose up to 50 percent of my pixel rate loosing some clarity of vision for my scan of life and layout. Minor difference for sure. Just something to consider. Great post as always, thanks for sharing.

Awesome idea, has your SCBA hinder you from deploying webbing in this way?

Completely underrated channel. You have such informative and clear videos!

Short, sweet and informative. Nice. 😎

Got to practice this technique a few weeks ago in recurit training, loved it! Awesome video 👍

Another spot on video. Thank you for the work sister!

After 30 plus years of working on a rescue, I’ve learned that all of these techniques for dragging or using webbing may work in one place or another. No two victims have ever drug out the same. They are often wearing little to no clothes as they were caught sleeping. They are often slick as a greased pig because their body is under stress and they are sweating profusely. It seems like the average rule is that for every 100 lbs of weight, it correlates directly with what floor they are on…100 and below first floor, 200 second etc. basements start at 200 and go up based on landings…. Firefighters playing victims no matter how limp they try to be, still have a muscle rigidity a truly unconscious person will not have. Many webbing tricks that work great on the training ground fail in spectacular fashion when tried in real life. Always have a next try. Don’t forget the simplest thing, a bed sheet, a shower curtain, whatever is right there where you find them. Try the arm bar. If they tap out enroute… they can get themselves out. Keep training!!!!

Great job!

Make it easier to work with. Consider two things, first, take the webbing to your local saddle shop or shoe repair and get the ends sewn together. The knot is what makes this the most difficult part to work. Second, consider 2” webbing. 2 inch is far easier to manage with gloves on and in blind environments. The 2” works very well simply rolled in your pocket with a tab sticking out. Due to its width and weight, it stays put very well and can be indexed with gloves on by just grabbing the 4” tab extended from the pocket.

Personally me. I like to collect the halliard in one of my hands or we'll enough away from the ladder just so it doesn't get caught on the rungs

Love your videos. The absolute only critique I have is using the forks bevel to door. While this does provide a minor increase in gap space, it also uses far more work to crawl the tool around the door stop. It also points the forks towards the door jamb. Training doors are quite robust as a matter of requirement. Many door jambs are much less robust. Driving the forks that direction can and will drive the forks into the jamb. No not always, but enough to make it more advantageous to use the fork’s bevel to jamb. It the door doesn’t fail at this point, you’ve generally created enough gap to transition to adz, which has far more strength anyway. Just a minor detail for conversation for some otherwise spot on videos.
