one of the smoothest guys I ever seen on the tools. Makes it look effortless.
Thank you Mike!
Amazing the tools created to make extrication easier, and the tools are some what quieter in order to not scare the patient as the fire department gets them out of the vehicle. This is why these guys and gals are called Heroes!!
Thanks brother!
Now make a video on the two beers and two cord of firewood!!!
Great video, thank you for creating and sharing.

Chris, which tie-back strap did you use in this evolution?
We have these made to our specifications & sell them for $150.
I realize you need to be able to be heard however when cutting glass you should be wearing a particulate mask as part of proper ppe.
Jim,
Thank you for your thoughts, it is important that we look at what we are doing and ask ourselves if we are doing the right thing. In some cases, you are right about using a particulate mask if the firefighter is operating in enclosed spaces with toxic or harmful particulates. However, not always is “Because we’ve always done it that way” correct, our PPE is sometimes driven by the equipment we are using. Traditionally, we’ve seen hand saws and reciprocating saws used to cut class. These saws tend to aerate the item they are cutting and blow them into the face of the operator. In the video, we are trying to work smarter and use the right tool for the job. We are using a dedicated “Laminated Glass” cutter tool, many different brands are available on the market. There are many advantages to these over what has traditionally been used to cut laminated glass. The three main advantages that I see are: the ability to work in tight quarters, no exposed blade operating near the patient, and the dust created is not agitated/aerated into the air (it drops down and away from the tool operators face).
In addition, there are some misunderstandings about the Silica that makes up glass. When Silica is created/melted to form a clear glass window, it loses it's Crystalline Silica form (which is extremely harmful to humans), and becomes Amorphous Silica. Amorphous Silica is classified by OSHA as an "irritant dust", similar to regular airborne dust or smoke from a campfire. Here is a good article written by Tim O’Connell from Rescue 42. I think it is a well written and researched article.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or thoughts on what we have presented. Again, thank you for asking. Better information and understanding makes us all better at our job.

Shut up Karen.
You should redux this video using ems and be more actual. Padding strapping everything. its a great video and instructional but train for real world instead of just talking about real world.. RAcking a pelvic break or even a femur which would be common is something u really want to explain for patient care and making as pain free as possible.
Whoever said they even had to make these videos? Did you pay them for production? I don't see where you have the right to bitch about something you just happened to come across on the internet.
@@TempoDrift1480 I digress after viewing again. Ill agree with your point about production..
