  • The knots are handcuff knots. The only difference between raising the victim and lowering the the rescuer is feet first or head first. The victim has knots at the forearm and wrist and the rescuer has knots at the feet...But now they are teaching another method. They are trying to make the drill a little safer. I will try and put a new video on when we have the next class to show how it is done.

  • lmfao i thought the guy at the bottom was a dummy rofl

  • Are the ropes basicly a california love knot in each? The rescuer putting his feet in each getting lowered down. Then the rescuer putting the loops on the victims hands and feet, then getting raised up? Then the rescuer getting raised up same way he went down?

  • @klskristen thats what im gonna do, volunteer

  • And they think us volunteers don't know what we are doing LOL. nice job guys
