Haha everyone is hating on how bad they were. Granted I'd probably rather let them leave me in the pool than to see how much they could paralyze me, but they admitted it was bad. Also, who backboards in the deep end?!
@Strykercom1 Hmmmm strange. I am Ellis certified and we just move em to shallow water. Also I assumed thats why you had to get the brick and swim 25 yards with just your legs so you could get to the shallow end.
@SqualoSurf20 yeah im not really sure why they want it done in the deep end, its much more difficult and tires the gaurds out more quickly, maybe so you move the victim as little as possible and stabilize them faster
@Strykercom1 Deep spinals are practised for the situation in which you are in a deep tank and there is no shallow end. Most regular pool options won't teach it, but something like a waterpark option would for those bigger pools, depending on where you're lifeguarding and what lifeguarding program you are required to take.
damn....the victim could've died at several different points during that procedure, taking the fact it is obviously a mock-rescue into account, these two need a lot more practice
kids doing men's work...and with no serious manners...Hopefully I live far from u...those things kills the way serious people is training for lifeguard...
never pass the uk lifeguard course, with that shit, mad a "bad spinal!" a hundred times worse, i hope your pool is insured, if that was real youd be sued.
@LEEinHVO You will be suprised at some of the fools who passed the UK national lifeguard course. The only thing they got right was the timed swims. They was terrible at theory and cpr etc. They passed, I was shocked. Although they did spinal better than this guy....barely.
@aznelfboi Vice sucks in deep water if your boarding. Once you get your casualty to the wall, they cant get their patient onto the board because of your hand behind their head, you need to do an adjustment (change holds with the 2nd guard) The best from what I've used is the Canadian Log roll(or log roll)Arms above head then held by your hand no transition, and the 2nd guard can immobilize their head/neck right away, then do the rest of the boarding.. Theres more details. tht is a rough descrip
I am sure Ellis and Associates would be interested in viewing this video. Talk about liability for organizations....the sad thing is its not the training but the individuals who don't take lifeguarding seriously.

Fuck, the 1st guard is a retard. I know it's a drill, but if youre going to do one at all, do it properly!! If the spinal board isn't in there in time make a wide circle, don't just stand there. 2nd guard isn't any better, get that fucking spinal board in there fast!! There is no 3rd guard, and oh god do these guys need it. The way you train is the way your perform. I would not trust these guys with my kids. I've performed about 3 spinals as 1st guard, and only been working for a year.
Lifeguard tube should not be used as a floating device in a swimming pool, wrong immobilization technique (main immobilization at the head, then the torso, then the legs), at least another lifeguard should be in the water, no use of the third lifeguard available, second lifeguard is not in a good position on the side of the pool, board should always be level with the pool deck, board should never be dragged around (those things cost a lot) and I could continue
@DROLL30 Except apparently spineboards float! One of my lifeguard friends tried it (he wanted to houdini his way out of it) but all he did was bob in the water!
What lifeguard Cert. did these people have? It is extremely easy to do a spinal extrication with only two guards. We had a spinal victim just last week at my facility and it was done exceptionally well with only two guards.
yea your suppose to put the board vertical down the side of the wall and the first responder needs to give the second responder and hand then remover the tube and from there procede to take her out of the water. What they did was way wrong. Im an ellis guard. o and you have to place the tube under the board. Another thing is you have 2 minutes to get the mid out of the water so this would be a major fail.
Although may have been a epic fail I am a lifeguard and it is as hard as HELL to do spinals in deep water. Just a tip, NEVER stop swimming in circles to keep her legs up until the backboard is in the water ready to go. Good luck!
Ellis guards suck... wow. How did you pass your class. This isn't even funny I hope no one gets hurt at your pool with sorry ass "lifeguards" like this. I'm a supervisor, if you worked for me you would be fired.
Yeah, the tube definitely goes under the backboard, and the secondary guard doesn't hold the GID's head, he's supposed to be holding the guest by the triceps.. Horrible vicegrip shown in the video, I'm an Ellis guard, I know....
yea this doesnt look like the proper way, isnt the second life guard with the board supposed to hold the victim by the wrists? and then the second lifeguard getting out and putting the patient on the board and pulling the board with the patient on to the asphalt pulling uppward and down?
You had the right concept. Just you need more people and you shouldn't put the rescue tube under her back, only her legs but I guess with more people it would have worked out better.
Are You Guys Ellis ?
I Thought I Heard The Girl Say "Im Sending This To Ellis" lol.
yeah what the hell is she doing on a tube if she has a spinal youre supposed to help her float to you get her over a backboard lol this is a complete fail
this is crazy even to be joking around in lifeguard uniforms.. i hope the people who live there see this and never go there.. there back boarding skills are very poor. you never put a tube under a suspected spinal
they splinted her head wrong. they should have done the head splint with her arms like they did but then wen they brought the back board they should have dont the head and chin support and the back board wouldn't have slipped like it did. and 2 their should have been both the lifegaurds in the water they have more control wen you are level with the victim. just completed my lifegaurding class by the way.
Wow, even as an LGI, I don't think I've ever seen something quite so...awful. Even for joking around, it's poor techinique...did you get in touble at work???
This is horable!!!! The worst spinal ever, they did everything wrong. 1st puttining her on a tube, enless red cross does that, that is horrible. Never at Ellis pools.
umm even if this was a joke its unprofessional and it makes your pool look bad and why are you putting a fucking tube under her head? my aquatic director would fire us if we acted like this during a scenario
Ha Ha omg I remember Seafari. I used to work there and at Rinnie. No offense guys but you really sucked on that spinal. Maybe you guys should take down this video. That way if you really do get a spinal, you won't have anything showing poor training.
i done my NPLQ in england 2 weeks ago. if i had done what they have done in this video my trainer would have kicked my butt and sent me home. what a shame on us serious Lifeguards. we train like it was for real these guys need to grow up.
Posting this was not a smart move. Anything happens at that facility with those guards and it goes to court this would be used as evidence against them. Number 1 rule "Never ever document anything that is done poorly because it will come back and bite you"
Just FYI this facility is Ellis. E & A may be better in some aspects of lifeguarding, they may also offer better training. All of that doesn't matter, because the training rests in hands of who you hire. If you hire people who don't care or are irresponsible, your guards will suck and lives will be lost.
OMG, I goona guess this is in the usa as the british NPLQ don`t use torpedo bouys 4 spinals. Also spinals need atleast 5 lifeguards to be legal. Are you guys even lifeguards or you just wana be`s?
wow thank God it was just practicing cause with the rescue tube in the back he damage more the spinal injury hehe but thats why ur suppost to practice to make it better
they say life over limb in the video, so they're def Ellis or Starguard. Prolly just joking around too much to take this stuff seriously. I've delt w/ a real spinal on a 5 year old little girl who came off one of our tube slides, and trust me, there was not much laughing goin on.
yea i have seen it .. tons of time.. and the funny thing is a red cross indoor water park near the pool i work which is ellis asked to borrow it.. why WOULD A RED CROSS PLACE WANNA BORROW A TAPE THAT BASHES RED CROSS.. haha ellis is way better
Number one spinal is done in the water. Number two if you were back boarding that way, then you are supposed to hold the victim with his wrists while the first lifeguard gets out and gets the board. You would have definately killed your victim.
Being an asst pool manager for Ellis, it makes me wanna put more pressure on my guards. Not only could you get her on the bored & you didn't move the tube out from under her.... AND you lost C-Spine more then once...
wow, r210n, dont even say i suck, i was in an unconscious rescue last year and i was holding the seal easy on the boys face and we brought him back to life with rescue breathing. Yes, lifeguarding is a serious subject and we know this is not good at all, it's all in fun you retard.
I agree man. I am an asst pool manager. There is a time for shits and giggles and then there is a time to be serious. I have been involved emergencies before so i see where you are coming from. Hey people its a joke! get over it! We also have our funny times like this... hehe.
yes.. my pool jokes around but its usually the guard acting as the guest in distress is the one fooling around when they ask questions .. like where do you live. and they answer your mom.. or when they ask what medication do you take.. they answer Viagra.. stupid stuff like that but the guards doing to rescue do it professionally
wrong lol u need to put the torpedo boid under teh calfs this ensures that teh head is not raised out of teh water and bending teh legs well done next time it might jus be a real person and guess who will be blammed for killing them listen in training!!

Being an asst pool manager for Ellis, it makes me wanna put more pressure on my guards. Not only could you get her on the bored & you didn't move the tube out from under her.... AND you lost C-Spine more then once...

wow, r210n, dont even say i suck, i was in an unconscious rescue last year and i was holding the seal easy on the boys face and we brought him back to life with rescue breathing. Yes, lifeguarding is a serious subject and we know this is not good at all, it's all in fun you retard.

I agree man. I am an asst pool manager. There is a time for shits and giggles and then there is a time to be serious. I have been involved emergencies before so i see where you are coming from. Hey people its a joke! get over it! We also have our funny times like this... hehe.

yes.. my pool jokes around but its usually the guard acting as the guest in distress is the one fooling around when they ask questions .. like where do you live. and they answer your mom.. or when they ask what medication do you take.. they answer Viagra.. stupid stuff like that but the guards doing to rescue do it professionally
