  • This is great information for anyone to have, I only wish I could have seen exactly how you tied those knots.

  • i can not see how he is doing it . the camera guy half shot the scene

  • THATS ONE OF MY INSTRUCTORS LOL

  • What kind of knot is on the top part of the harness?? when he twists it what does it become?

  • neat nice and to the point. It is a must to know these as number of ppl are now staying in highrise buildings. Good VDO.

  • Well. It's nice to know they'd have known how to get my former husband out of the building. If they could have found him before they had to retreat, that is.

    After the S. Tower collapsed completely, firefighter leaders issued an order for those who were in Tower 1 to leave the building.

  • Excellent video - I have wet my panties

  • how long is that rope in feet?

  • Love the use of "Victim" haha

  • Very nice knot there. We use to be trained in using the chair knott but when HSE came in we had to drop it and only use full body or nappy harnesses.. sucks really but if it came down to it id still use one. Ill have to try that one in the vid, always good to know stuff with ropes.. a thing that was known as Firemanship... a word seldom used nowadays... well over here anyway
