Every single one of these are true heroes .... total respect and admiration to all. 👌
Well done guy's we value you and appreciate what you do.
We should all be grateful to those who have the viable answers on how to cope with chaos affecting more than one person at a trauma scene sometimes.
God knows I love you guys. I was in Derby team for a few years before my job pushed me around the country and made being a member impossible. I cant wait until it changes so I can get back in and join the team again. It makes you feel so wanted and helpful for the community. All the best of luck for the future team!
Just want to say from all who visit the peak district, thank you EMR for being there..
This is a direct reflection to my team, this video hits great points and I will share this as much as possible! To all those who "serve so others may live"... NEVER GIVE UP! it is you who makes out doors safer and gives those with little hope much more. A solute to you my friends.
What heroes! I'd love to do this if I'm ever fortunate enough to live in a mountain area. In the meantime, so glad that selfless people like this have my back when I'm out on the hill.
This was fantastic to watch. Great to see how SAR teams in the UK are so similar to the USA.
Exactly my thoughts as well.
Great Job guys, An inspiration to all rescuers
Oh that so great. God bless you all.
Inspirational. Thank you.
A great insight into the important work you do. A must see!
amazing! you guys are amazing!!!!
It's good to see people pulling over to the side when they see emergency Vehicles behind them ,a lot of people won't ,
Really? I can't say I've ever seen people refuse to move aside for an emergency vehicle. It's illegal to obstruct one. The only exception is that the driver should not break other traffic laws in order to allow the vehicle to pass.
Looking at what you are doing now and your cloths, in the 1950/early 60s we had very little, I was in RAFMountain Rescue Service at RAFHarpur Hill, thats going back many years now for sure.
This is great.
Absolutely fantastic EMRT! I will continue to contribute till im no longer able! Hopefully join one day, who knows?
being a walker my self i allways keep the mrt number for buxton edale and derby main contact just in case if you have any money spare give that one pound in you pocket could save a life or your life
good jop I like ed so match
@EdaleMRTVideo, I am new to the S&R scene but am curious as to whether or not you are equipped with vacuum spinal boards? Much love from Texas and a Happy New Year, good video!!!
"Due to the nature of the climbing if they fall they'll hit the ground." Thank you for that knowledge we TOTALLY did NOT know, AT ALL.
Ok had to point it out sorry... anyways.
It is obvious that they do mostly flat or low-angle, but they also have lots of small cliffs, which are high angle.
If you have ever been on the rope it is hard no matter what, everything brings its own challenges. Flat is easy, get them on the board and get them out. Low-angle and High-angel are harder. Low-angle you have to go against your mind, even thoguh you can walk on low-angle hills regularly you have to be strapped in so you don't roll downhill with all the gear. So you have to let the system take all your weight and only use your legs to stay upright. High-angle you have to be really careful, 1 wrong placement of a tool and it falls, you have to do your job while hanging from a rope, and most of all trust the system.
I get a kick out of it because around here we usually hike 3-5 miles with 500-800 feet of elevation gain to get to the patient. That is what we call "flat". It still sucks to carry everything there and carry a patient out, but it sucks less in this terrain.
Many people wouldnt know the area or that the area has very low crags meaning that even with ropes and protection properly in place the climber can hit the floor before the rope goes taught.
Hi!, maybe you like watch the trailer of "1985: Heroes Among ruins" and meet heroes like you. ;)

shoulf be renamed to slight-hill rescue
you have obviously never been a part of such an event...
damn right! where I live we have real mountains.
Well big mountains in your neighborhood must make you the expert then right? In that case most people on the planet must be experts as well, there for giving your first comment no credibility.
Geez man dont be so uptight.
netfischer And where exactly are this "real" mountains ? You are just another know-it all teeny booper ....why am I even replying to pathetic people oh gawd.
Very slow rescue, no helicopter? Very surprised! Why is this so slow? France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy all use helicopters where possible and only very bad weather conditions would prevent them flying...
Helicopters are available nationwide via HM Coastguard. I don't see any reason for a helicopter for this incident.
I would think the distances are bigger in France and Germany.
I think mountain rescue do a fantastic job but there was a time when volunteers did it behind the scenes for the love of it , now every MRT has a TH-cam channel and everyone wants to be a star and bath in glory , I have seen videos where people were reported missing when they weren’t and people reported as in trouble when they weren’t and given a dressing down by MRT when they’d done nothing wrong being blamed for someone else’s mistaken assumption , if your in a MRT for the glory and limelight then you really shouldn’t be there , the real heroes are the ones who give up their time and put them selves in danger to rescue others without ever seeking recognition or being in the next MRT video , I never pass an MRT collection box without putting in All the change I have , pound coins the lot but a bit sick of the look at us aren’t we great videos and the people being rescued treated like numptys , even the most experienced and well equipped out doors enthusiast can have an accident , I think the glory hunting goes against the spirit of why MRT’s were set up
