That's the most realistic dummy I've ever seen
Right! Even blinks...
LMAO!!!!
not to be that guy..
But I've seen dumber "dummies" lol
I usually make the girth hitch and put it around the injured persons neck. Don't know why the mortality rate is so high though. But no complaints yet!
been using for about a year. a MILLION uses. Tactical, wildland, fire, rescue. You name it, this product is a must. ARS really simplified a problem that has been around a long time. Nice review.
Another 80.00 ill have to spend thanks. Great work as always. My grand kids watch you now and they are age 5 to 12. All 6 of them are looking to do the work you do. You are a great roll model.
I feel like these might be useful to have pre-attached to the back of vests in a maritime enforcement environment as well. Really cool simple solution.
We just got these at Denver International Airport as the paramedics. A crew used it on a cardiac arrest in a plane.
I've seen this product and has thinking this would be good as a gift for some of the firefighters at my department but was just waiting for a good review.
Best videos out there man. Always love seeing new uploads from you sir. Keep up the good work and be safe
Thank you Sam for this great video.
A very similar item has been used by the Royal Marines and a few other units for over 30 years called a "Loop Line" especially useful in the Jungle and Arctic.
Wasn't to sure about the applications, until you did the demos, and yeah that thing is pretty damn cool!! Would have loved to had one when I was in the Navy.
This looks pretty cool!
Modern take on the North American Rescue Rat Strap. I had the setup when I was a medic in the Army. Definitely effective.
Thanks for the great contents all time!!!
Great video as always!
You the Best! I love military tools/guns and cars/tank/planes and medic
I carry one from this company but made for firefighters in my gear. It’s fantastic.
This is pretty neat. The pre attached method is probably the only time I'd ever use it.
It helps to "Short-Rope" the drag handles so you are lifting more of the torso off the ground so there is lest resistance/friction btwn the dragee and the ground.
This concept has been around for a long while now. We used something similar to this in 05
I would highly recommend switching out the carabiner for a Kong Tango carabiner. Significantly reduces fine motor skill requirements.
would work if they built it in but it diminishes some of the versatility when talking about some of the other lifts and drags. IE moving the carabiner
PrepMedic consider swapping the carabiner out for a tri-lock (triple action) one, you won’t have the same issues of accidentally locking as with the screw gate carabiner. And with a couple practices you can operate it one handed. Petzl are my preferred
For all the demonstrated applications I would suggest a snap gate biner if going to adjust that part of the kit.
@@shadowlordofbeasts Not a bad idea, anything with a belay loop gate would work, and tri/bi-locks are more resistant (in my experience) to barrel damage. DMM has one that looks like it would work. If for no other reason that preventing that biner from clipping anything you don't want it too. Free-open biners are murphy's law magnets.
Good review for a great product.
Kinda reminds me of a more refined version of just straight up webbing that some firefighters carry for RIT work
I had the exact same thought
I like the idea of pre-attaching the Carabiner. But if you happen to be attaching to a lower point like ear the waist. What about if they had a little reinforced slot in the center of the bottom of the carrier? just big enough to put the webbing through. So you can pinch the webbing and feed it through and then place the clip on and pre attach it.
I'm buying this 100%
thank you sam
I like it, I can add it to my TEMS kit
I use to have something I made like this back in 1990 when I was in my teens working the summer as a white water guide/river rescue. Maybe this is new to the tactical world but every river guide I know has minimum 2 of these sort of nylon straps a handful of Carabiners 1 or 2 throw bags and a self belay figure 8 in their Kayak.
River guides use multipliers more often than even rock climbers, since that water drag can be a big force to overcome. I'm a pretty small guy and doing cliff rescues I did a lot in the 3:1 range where as the whitewater guys I worked with would start at 5:1 and only expect to anchor whatever they were attached to. Our white-water kits were bigger than our basic rope rescue kits, although when doing a rope rescue, the extra rope is kinda already there.
@@KarltheKrazyone
My fave is when group gets their raft wrapped around a bridge abutment. I’ll have to than hike it all the way up to the track or road rappel down the face than deflate half the raft nine the hope that the current will do my job for us if not it’s setting up more throw bags and using multipliers like you said.
Worst rescue I ever did was rescuing some girl in a group from a different guid company. She was foot entrapped betwixt a couple rocks and her body was pushed over backwards in the water. I had to be lowered down stream attach ropes and we used a z line attached to a raft to pull her body upstream so I could dislodge her leg. Freaking brutal heartbreaking day.
It's not new, but he points out things he likes about the product.
1:53 Now I'm interested, what was the situation you would have needed it in on the heli?
As am I...very intrigued.
Looks good for use in austere environments.
Just a question, where'd you get the pullover sweater that you're wearing. I haven't seen it in a review before but it's awesome
This is pretty darn cool
What are some trama backpacks that you recommend. Nice vid
the preattached style is really good.. in a fire fight.. every second counts for both wounded and rescuer.. just pull and go go go..
That is really cool
The first part of the tarkov raid series shows a good use of this item. Even it is just a little short movie.
So good
Nice!
Would you be a able to do a video on Prehospital treatment/presentation on dialysis patients?
So basically someone who is smart created from a climbing sling a casualty carrying device, really cool
Love it...
tactical socks amazing
Just as a safety point I'd recommend getting familiar with daisy chain failure in rock climbing. That's very similar to a daisy chain and if you rig one wrong it can be fatal if miss used.
You mean the climbing sling?
@@thewhorenextdoor8268 I'm referring to the bar stitch failure on a daisy chain when hooked from loop to loop. You can actually cut/pull throught those stitches much easier that if you pull on the length of the chain. In thelis application I doubt you could generate those levels of force but it's good to know how not to rig a daisy chain. Just look up daisy chain failure there's lots of very well done videos on the topic.
@@Blackmage50 I depends on the product, if it's from those ( Chinese ) products it will fail, if it's from black diamond or mammut or any other reputable brand that's put the products to the test I doubt especially for the load of work when pulling someone, but again I might be mistaken
I love how your intro just blasts my ear drums out 😁
Hey Sam, if you decide to make this into a series, perhaps North American Rescue can have you do a review of their RAT Strap (Rescue Assault Tether)?
Sam, wouldn't it be easier to use the dragging handle on the back of the plate carrier ? Are there any reasons to use this instead of the handle ?
Yeah, the drag handles on carriers put you in a really inefficient position for dragging and make it impossible to defend yourself during movement.
Just subscribed not intrested in the product but the channel is interesting i will give it a look
It looks like a TRX suspension trainer at the gym or a tow strap
Sam! Love your channel 👍🏼 I have a request! I’m in the process of designing a new kit suitable for motorcycle day trips. We do group rides off road, but also transport on public tarmac roads. We all carry simple a first aid kit each. I’ve come to realise it is not really super relevant for the most common injuries. It’s really rare that someone bleeds since we require all wear serious protective gear. Most common is broken arms, wrists, collar bones, fingers.
Could you suggest additions to a first aid kit or maybe a complementary kit to with us on the bike?
I respect your experience and would also appreciate honest input on common motorcycle injuries and what to think of as a first responder.
Thank you for what you’re doing Sam! 🙏🏻⭐️
/M
Talk to the track crew if you have a local race track, because they may be able to point you at more training and gear. Splints are good, but you also want to have everyone really clear on head/neck injuries and when to, or not remove a helmet. I've known quite a few medics who ride, and a helmet getting pulled at the wrong time is high on their list of bad things. The time critical stuff will be broken femurs and ribs, the rest is just do the best until help arrives. That said, splints and a bit of training do really help with patient comfort.
Hey you can also use it as a TRX strap :D
What plate carrier was your volunteer casualty wearing?
That is our IcePlate EXO (ICE) Ultralight Ventilated Plate Carrier:
www.qoreperformance.com/collections/iceplate-exo
Hope that helps, but let us know if you have any questions. #StayFrosty
First of all: Thanks to the "victim"! :)
Just for comparison : my I ask how tall you are?
The RS looks like a good idea. With "normal" dragging like I learned it (folding one arm of the injured person over their chest, pushing your arms under their armpits and grabbing this arm), you have to lift the person upper body which requires a lot of strength, especially in tight spaces. With this system it looks like the rescuer doesn't need to have that much strength but can use more of his body weight to drag the "victim." What is your opinion on that?
For an application in US&R, I see a use combined with a helmet (and maybe a "stiff-neck") for protection or even with a rescue sheet (looping the Rescue Strap through the top handles of the sheet and pulling the victim out of a tight space onto the sheet to protect their back from injury).
Reminds me of the drag strap I use when deer hunting... But I dont see how this couldn't easily be accomplished by using a couple of heavy duty dog leashes.
Because when used in a official capacity, all that sort of stuff has to be rated and certified...
Specially with our American friends who love slaping a liability lawsuit on anyone that even dares to serve their coffee to hot...
😌
Great vid as usual. I just checked the link only $75!, Well worth the money
Dude where did you get those tactical socks
Kohls 😂
How can buy this tactical socks ıt's gorgeous :)
How do you think it compares to a DARC drag handle?
Two different use cases. The DARC can't be placed on someone else rapidly.
Are you allowed to carry a sidearm in ems?
Swat medics are cops first so to speak. If in a TEMS role outside of that, unlikely. Most services and states dont allow for it.... if you do it's on you
What type of hair cut lol I like it
Great piece of kit, considering the populace is getting fatter and fatter. Throw it around a casualty and drag em. Wonder if you could stage it as a pull tab for a dog or someone to just grab the tabbed spot.
One thing I don't see too much in first aid kits or trauma kits is a biohazard trash bag. Amazon has biohazard stickers for pretty cheap (6$ in my case) and a 1 gallon ziplock bag. You can use them for bloodied trauma pads or bloodied gauze.
In my very limited experience and training I've been told to leave the labels on the scene for when medics arrive they know what has been used.
I'm very like your channel. I'm learning Eglish when I watch video on PrepMedic channel. I'm interested in first aid. Greetings from Poland :D
Good luck ;) Check out BORKOŚ channel. Personally I recommend KPP in future. Powodzonka ;)
@@yukinoryu I watch BORKOŚ wideos, Dzięki :D, a kiedyś KPP na pewno będzie robione przeze mni e
Love the Tactical Socks, do you have those in stock? Lol
😂 forced my buddy into it at the last second and neither of us were motivated enough to put on shoes.
For its cost I am not sold. I will maintain my current tube tape 10foot loop that sits in my ankle pocket. It rarely gets used as dragging a 250lb minimum 'dead' weight is far harder than these 2 feet demonstrations. I also believe its best to get as much of the body up off the ground in a drag and prioritise 2 man moves. The less body on the ground, the less friction working against you. 1 man suicide runs to collect a patient with your gun up is the fastest way to end up dead or with medals hence why I don't plan to do single man moves such as these.
Yeah. Getting that for my riot medic bag
I think I will just stick to my helo lanyard for now. LOL I agree, $80+$42=$122.00+S&H for a bit of nylon is crazy.
I’m curious are you as a paramedic in these situations able to carry a sidearm?
If you are a combat paramedic yes, your rifle, sidearm, all the ammunition and gear depending on the mission, plus the extra medikit bag.plus a foldable lightweight stretcher, at least back In my days
Looks good for deer hunting (either to rescue a hunting party member or to drag out a deer). That and a tournequet (which I should have already).
Question, how likely is it that someone shot with plate carrier on will need a chest decompression? Pretty serious blunt force trauma
Someone could always take a round in the gaps around the plate (arms, abdomen, upper chest, etc.) and the round could tumble and cause a pneumo/hemo thorax.
Hey I'm under 18 and I need to get a ARS needle how can I get the medical training to be able to get one
You don't need medical training to get one. You can buy them online pretty well anywhere. Why do you think you need one? Needle decompression is not an everyday skill and certainly not one commonly deployed. The medical training to use it, depends on your country's laws. Three year Paramedic science university degree and CPG's that allow it here.
@@classicambo9781 when ever I try to by one I see something like this "By purchasing products packed for Medical Professional Use Only, I acknowledge and certify that I am a trained medical professional authorized by Federal, State, and/or Local policies, rules, regulations, guidelines, protocols, and/or laws to purchase and use this product which is packaged for Use by Medical Professionals Only." That's why
@@zero-kc8ym Interesting. Guessing you are in the US? In Australia there is no such declaration needed. Again though, why do you think you need it? From my perspective it is a bit like hearing a 13 year old wants a lobotomy pick. You shouldn't be using it unless trained, which in the US is murky. There seems to be widely different scopes of practice depending on who the medical director is with any particular company.
@@classicambo9781 I asked where to get the training needed what kind of class I should take in able to learn how to use it
@@zero-kc8ym You need to be a paramedic to perform a needle decompression. In order to be a paramedic, you need to be an EMT first. Most places require you to be 18 to take your EMT(about 6 months), and then you might want to get some experience as an EMT before you go to medic school(probably 2 years). You'll be at least 20 before you're allowed to perform a needle decompression. You do not need an ARS needle at your age. If you use one, you're opening yourself up to a bunch of legal problems and most likely ruining your chances of working in EMS.
i always watch your videos and i want ask you.... what would you do put in a medic bag for hunting in the forest????? or you can you do a video about this????? thank you and congratulations
OK so price is price, not really concerned about the price. As a medic do you find the ARS work OK with a patient with a c-collar or does it impact the c-spine when dragging
If you have time to put on a c collar, this device is not what you should be using. Also, C-Spine precautions dont have much of a place in tactical or austere medicine.
@@PrepMedic Thank you Sam, it has been almost 20 years since I was a full time critical care medic so many things have changed. I miss it. Thank you for your video's.
So this is literally a TRX-System^^
$75 for about $6 in webbing, and about the least appropriate carabiner for the use? Well, at least it's in multicam...... Can you really call it innovative if you just take stuff from other industries, make it multicam, and jack the price up?
Lol aside from the pretty stitching, you ain’t wrong!
@@calebm-r96 The one they have on their website isn't even a proper bartack. It's just a zig-zag stitch.
Who said it was innovative? I don’t know if it is innovative since I have no clue of other products that serve the same purpose. Anyway, many many products are comprised of stuff from other industries. What is important is the design of the product! If it is well designed and something the target market wants, then the price will have a significant profit margin (unless it’s for a charitable purpose, right). I think Prep Medic here describes it really well that it’s a really good design. I could not really know by my own if it’s a good design since I’m not a firefighter, rescue worker, SWAT etc. Inspiring review though!!
@@magnusengelmark Sam, PrepMedic, calls it innovative right in the description. It's not, it's hardly even an evolution, it only holds a design patent. It's also overpriced. I work in the industries that this type of device originates, and aside from 2 decades of experience, I also hold a significant number of certifications and legally-defined positions that make gear like this my bread and butter. The design is fine, nothing fancy, except for the poor choice in carabiner (which RE doesn't even catalog any more), it does what it's designed to do. It's just not a good value, and some poor choices were made. Not to mention, the yellow example on the ARS website shows inappropriate stitching for rated soft goods, I'm assuming it's just a prototype or pre-production/marketing model, bartacks don't look like simple zigzag stitching.
Also, since they're claiming a rating, there should be some sort of official test or certification data readily available, not just a blurb in their cutsheet. It may have something on the device itself, but it's nowhere on the website. BTW, "NTOA Review and Approval," like the one in their "resources" tab, doesn't count.
As for the cost, that $6 estimate for webbing I made is right on point. That carabiner is about $15. That's retail cost for both, not what ARS charges. I could look up my keyman pricing but it's pretty irrelevant. Call it $30 for the webbing and carabiner plus the pouch and all labor (manufacturing and sourcing costs and easy math), and their $99 retail cost looks a little price gougey (that's 330% margin btw). Gouging public services is lame, even lamer if individual officers and firefighters and EMT's are buying this out of their own pocket. So, $60 for $6 in webbing and the sewing, $15 more to add the carabiner (or $25 if bought separately), another $25 if you want the bag (and that's ignoring color price increases, and the patch). $99 bucks for $30 in materials and labor. And they're made-to-order, which means they aren't even popular enough to stock, or the company doesn't have enough capital to carry stock in the first place. That's weird.....
You can have the greatest design in the world, but if you're gouging your user base and can't even stock your own products, that's alarm bells man.... I just don't see the value in this particular product, and I'm pretty knowledgable about this type of thing.
@@dalenvigil muh american labor
Can spend half the money on a good pair (2) of hammock straps with the same utility
I know for the type of work I do they have to be rated for 5000lbs per person using the system. Most I’ve seen are rated around 500lbs I believe.
@@jacobwall33860 they're rated for 500lbs because they operate inside the triangle of death( at the very upper edge) . Hammock straps may well be fine ,but if using a carry device in any professional context get something designed and rated for the job- lives at risk demand it and we live in a litigious society.
@@jamesbridges7750 I believe you misread my comment.
@@jacobwall33860 was refering to the hammock straps - they're rated at 500lbs for hammock use, they're much stronger(have to be) because of the angles they are designed to be rigged at, but its not a good idea to plan to use them for rescue. Even though they would likely be fine, it's something that deserves more and using them would be a liability . Hope that clears it up, I understand , just explaining the reason behind the rating along with other reasons not to use them.
good only for flat surfaces, in terrain you only get stuck with this
Hardcore
"I can't remember what you call these things..." Bar-Tacks and Daisy Chain Loops
Give that dummy an Oscar !
ARS have a bunch more examples of possible uses on their instagram
Real fan of their wall/ high window technique. Ton of uses though, even some breaching when used with another tool like a haligan or tomahawk.
Unless you're sponsored, you could recommend making one for cheaper with tubular nylon webbing, and a carabiner.
Firefighters already do that (make their own) I did that while I was a firefighter and it sucks. This isn’t just a strip of tubular nylon with a carabiner and carried some pretty distinctive advantages over webbing.
@@PrepMedic good point. If one was to Google climbing daisy chains, all you would have to do is pad the handles, and purchase a climbing rated carabiner to accomplish the same concept for about 50 dollars.
That's a lot of work to do, and a lot of faith to put in your own handiwork. Nylon is also a pain in the ass to stitch. Basically, you're paying for the assurance that it's going to work.
@@davidm8371 hey man agree to disagree. You wouldn't actually have to sew anything with what I mentioned. You could take foam from home depot and tape around the ends to make your handles. Its already sewn, like the one being advertised in the video. Clip the carabiner in the middle and its the same concept but home made. As for the quick deploying case thats cool, Im sure most of us have a left over molle pouch we could use for storage. Anyways good luck all 👍🏽 just brainstorming cheaper alternatives. #millionaremindset
I'll stick to my webbing I keep in my bunker gear.
... and when you're moving furniture, you can slip it under the furniture for easy lifting.
That's just a fancy hammock tree strap
Almost but not quite.
So, it's a reinforced daisy chain for climbing,....got it
With a method to efficiently store and deploy along with tactile handles for low light enviornments.
Can you just clip it on to someone's belt?
I made something like this from braiding 550 and adding 2 carabiners.
Review the 511 plate carrier?
Полезная штука. Раненый Ахмед у тебя дома живёт? -))))
I like the product! But from what I can see being a problem in a combat environment you are absolutely going to catch the grab loop on something and that magnet is not going to be strong enough to hold it in. I think two strong buttons might have been a better choice. But as far as rescuer safety goes getting the patient moved with a drag and not compromising your spine is an awesome advantage because you can stand erect for the drag and not be bent over the patient.
Good review Sam, but sorry I'm going to have to ruin ARS day on this one. If you want this product, go buy a rock climbing daisy chain, $10-25 for a 55 in. chain and $20 for a real carabiner and you're in for half the price unless it has to be multicam, otherwise I'm sure they make a color you want.
ARS go find something else to do; selling a $25 rock climbing product for $75 just because it's new to the gun community isn't going to fly.
I do rope rescue, I am aware of what a daisy chain is. The rescue strap provides a fast system of deployment with tactile components (handles and reinforced drag areas). While a daisy chain, just like the webbing will work, it lacks the advantages of a rescue strap that make operating in high threat high stress environments that much easier. Daisy chain + carabiner + a molle bag still = more then the $70 this product costs.
More Latino man please.
😂😂😂😂😂
Doing this in a house on a carpet easy to slide now try it outside in a tactical environment
I film in a house but I work in the field. I have dragged and lifted hundreds of people with almost every device you can think of.
Mmm just take your tree hunger straps for your hammock more cheaper
Don't mock someone who's actually been in combat
What?
Pretty sure the 511 plate carrier solves all of these problems
It has a strap that you can drag other people with?
I think he is referring to the 5.11 HEX grid that allows for multiple mounting angles from traditional mollie systems.
@@PrepMedic yes I have one, well one of the older models. The drag handle comes out a few feet. It allows you can stand straight up .
@@PrepMedic yes the strap folds into the plate carrier then comes out when you grab it.
Where do you find such life-like looking dummies for your videos? Asking for a friend......
emphasis on dummy.
I hate cool things I don't actually need
So... hammock straps...
absolutely gets its start there but it has some features that make it distinctly different: Tactile handles for low light/high stress situations, mountable bag for rapid deployment, reinforced loop at the center for hoist operations and prolonged drags
