  • Yeah, Loo, I've got your "rescue aid" right here...

  • thats a VERY handy knot to know :-)

  • If a victim requires a handcuff knot, chances are they'll be unconscious and won't feel a thing until later.

    As for your hubby, searches don't always result in a rescue.

  • then obviously he was caught in a part of the fire that was to hot to go to.

  • It seems like that would hurt, especially if you put it on their wrists without a jacket to absorb the tightening effect.

    My husband died in a fire. After watching all these rescue videos, I can't see why they couldn't have saved him.

    That's too much wishful thinking.

    They never even found his body but we know he was there.

  • good

  • Lucky victim

  • nice to know, may need to use it some time :)
