I did this once all by myself with only a six pound hammer. That one looks like a 10 pounder.

Agreed. This shows the process in a no stress situation. Imagine the stress of rescue! It's hard work period...

@850fireman Im not bein a "hater" but this was frickin training for when the windows ARENT there. yes windows are preferred entry points, but what we gonna do when windows arent there?......... bust a wall.

If I had a window I would try to use that instead. If it is a solid wall I would pierce it with a halligan first to make sure I am in the right place and that nothing is on the other side. That is a lot of work to find that the downed firefighters are in the next room over or that an impassable object is behind the wall. Also, I prefer a low small hole that only needs to be big enough to get one firefighter out at a time. You can also pierce the wall with a halligan to get an airline in.

For the second approach, you need to make sure you take into account the internal construction of a cinderblock. The weakest points are not the center but off center where the block is hollow. Just a bit of advice. Stay safe out there!
