  • Obviously your not on the job or you'd realize those vests keep you from an individual 10k fine from OSHA. I like how you call them rookies, and I'm sure at 25 years of age, your a seasoned vet too.

  • the biggest problem i see is no cribbing.

  • lol they just got him out through the back

  • Why are the car lights still on? The first thing you do is disconnect the battery on the car. 1 spark from the battery on some leaking fuel and everyone doing the rescue would be dead on need rescue. Must have been a volunteer fire department or a training video on what not to do.

  • @Yodle2012 lol you're right.

  • It doesn't appear the jaws of life worked. That guy tussled with that door and I still don't see that it opened.

  • Why was nobody holding C-spine on the pt in the car?

  • @JrSAR101 thats what i was always taught that car is not stable

  • every accident is different, its easy to judge sitting at your computer, i've been in 7 accidents, just last week they had to use the jaws of life to cut the roof off the car to get me out, and it was completely unnecessary, but they did it anyway, and when they cut one of the corners something came down and hit me in the head...not sure what it was i had a blanket over my head, but whatever I'm just happy to have been rescued they way i was.........dont take shit for granted

  • @8071940 probably couldn't cut through the hinges in time.

  • c-spine immobilization wasn't all that great it seemed like

  • @thewallisnow being seasoned and commen sense arent the same these guys suck no cribbing nothing at all was done correctly........
