Awesome video! Very simple and effective

[@GAGTrider1971]

Great video, used some of the techniques in our extrication training and they worked great, keep the videos coming

[@anthonydiaz2437]

Hey man great video! Learn something new every day, I really like that technique with the the backboard in the vehicle, and the reverse strike for vehicle fires

[@Texasreiguy]

Another good video guys.. Haven't seen anything from y'all in a while! Keep em coming!!!

[@JCMacDonald]

I learned that when you use the spreaders to gain access to the hinges, you do crush the fender, but you position the spreader so that it catches in the crack between the hood and the fender. doing that has always bent the fender in such a way that allows access to the hinges

[@homerfiredept.homerla.521]

Thanks for that and all your excellent vids!

God bless our firefighters... God bless that mustache...

spring loaded window punch ... Fire Store has them ... My Smith & Wesson rescue knife has one ... just remember to let the punch do the work ... I've seen many push hard and their hand and arm go through the glass ...

[@inst5productions]

It's called a window punch ... it is spring loaded and when pressure is placed on the glass it releases the punch breaking the glass.

[@gammafirebug1]

You can get the same purchase point by knocking the window out, and clamping the spreaders facing to the ground and closing them.

Awsome job

[@lindathrall5133]

That is neat as hell

[@RE1599]

What is he using to break the glass? All I saw was he put some little squeezing tool. squeezes it and the glass breaks. What is that thing?

[@rhoonah5849]

Magic.

[@andyoxleyonhistravels]

Rule number 1. Never use your gloved hand to take out the broken glass. Why? 99 times out of a 100 we use our gloved hand to wipe sweat away whilst at these incidents, and you end up with small glass shards in your gloves which is why firefighters end up with cuts on their faces. Hope this is helpful.

[@Jeffs511]

Excellent!

[@Scubvid]

Woehoe i'm the first view/like. Great video!!

[@gammafirebug1]

I'm sorry, but wrong wrong wrong.....

[@jeffreeds3371]

gammafirebug1 you heard the guy said it has worked over the years, so how can you blabber off saying it’s wrong when it worked for them?

[@lovecheese45]

It works. Chief Nelms has been my training chief for quite a few years. He knows his stuff.

[@rhoonah5849]

blah blah blah
