Vehicle Extrication
Going into the home stretch for Fire Fighter II. Tonight we took the liberty to cut, pry, lift, pull and smash a fleet of cars. K12, Jaws of Life (Spreader & cutter) center punch, haligen, axe, cribbing, and a little elbow grease.
We started with a fully intact Pontiac 2-Door
After cutting the hood open (K12) we cut the connections to the battery to prevent the airbag from going off.
