Being a paramedic for more than 35 years in Germany I have to say it was an amazing job. I'm very impressed by the calmness and professionalism of the whole crew. That is what others can learn from!
I'm from this area. This intersection is notorious for bad accidents. Could you emagine what it was like before they put up the traffic lights. Both Willow Street and Lampeter F.C are excellent Volunteer Fire Companies.
Unfortunately, I can imagine that. Btw, "Volunteer" adds a very special touch here. You can never thank the volunteer firefighters enough for what they do every day! And yes, they are!!!
The most common sense parking job of a heavy rescue at a crash site in years that I have seen. Training video!!! Nose in , easy access from both sides. No having to do a 360 around the truck. Great Job.
Its great to see the fireman checking the pillars for airbags and seat belt tensions. Proper stabilization as well. Great roof roll. Great Job to all from what I can see.
Hell , I've been driving for 45 years. And yes you are so right ! Majority of accidents are caused by carelessness and total disregard of the law . You take care of yourself and keep your head on a swivel.
Very good job! 🙏🏻the driver is ok. Oh, never bet against a truck driver when he needs to thread thread his rig through tight squeezes. You guys stay safe! 🚒🇺🇸
Love these helmet cam vids, gives you a perspective that you just don't see any other way. Many assume that fire fighters just put out fires and get people out of crashed cars, then go off back to the station. They also clean up after the fact, amazing people, all hero's in my book.
Firefighters do a million other things besides putting out fires and getting people out of wrecks , there are far too many things to list that Firefighters are trained to do. One thing that Firefighters do other than putting out fires is being paramedics , they respond to a lot more medical calls than they do for fires.
@@josephbennett3482 Floods is when firefighters come in use as they have the pumps. Grass fires. Builds that have fallen down. Searching for people in the mountains and woodlands. I do not think they rescue cats from trees any more, at least not here in the UK. In fact a person can be finned for calling the fire brigade to get a cat from a tree or up a telephone pole.
Much to be proud of here - nice calm approach, vehicle stabilization (struts would be a nice compliment for an extra measure of safety), protecting your patient from the glass, re-assessment of plans and progress... However, I would gently suggest that a Milwaukee Contractor Grade 18V Sawzall with 9" and 6" Diablo brand automobile demolition blades will out- perform your hydraulic cutters as long as you steer clear of seatbelt tensioner and reinforcement plates. You can really make that saw sing with just a touch of lubricating oil. We catch this type of job fairly often. Goes even faster with hydraulic tool on the A- and C-posts while using the saw to cut the B-post (about 4" lower so you don't get the reinforcing plate). To heck with the D-posts - just cut the roof straight straight down with your Sawzall - much safer to as you don't have to worry about the pistons in the lift gate. Keep your ram or spreaders handy as they're much easier to use to get the flap down going than hauling and bouncing the roof - especially without struts. Respectfully submitted, Talbot Brooks.
Its actually fairly common, usually old hose or some other form of really thick but flexible material is used. I've heard of a few big city departments even having kevlar covers.
@@michael61985 Not here. We just got a 2020 Pierce Hook and Ladder with all new LED lights, an eQ2B, Whelen sirens with rumblers and the rotorays on the front make it look exquisite. It’s the best looking truck I’ve seen in a long time.
Great video and all, but get those bystanders out of the scene, you don’t need the added headache of one of them trying to help, and getting injured; if you didn’t arrive in an emergency vehicle or aren’t with an emergency service, and especially if you don’t don’t have any kind of PPE....go stand by the fire truck or rescue unit away from the hot zone
I looked up on Google Maps and found out that the accident occurred in Here is Beaver Valley Pike Lancaster, PA 17602 USA. Is the driver in the accident okay?
Did the ambulance transport on an Extrication Board? If so, why?! that's poor practice as it isn't what it's for and can do damage to the spine. Also, do you guys carry the special wrap for glass management? Rather then puncture windows and let the glass fall in to the vehicle here we cover the window in a sticky film then puncture so nothing falls in.
Depending on what your medical director wants . Some places use a long spine board for everything with a trauma . But if you don’t pad the voids ,c collar head blocks etc . Not much point in using it if it’s not done correctly. My department only uses them if the have neck pain. I personally love the KED. Most don’t use it because they are lazy and lack of knowledge. But things are done way different here in the us vs the uk . Stay safe
@@JS-zb1vv my point is that they are for moving patients out of situations in a stable position only: hence why we call them Extrication Boards (boards for the extrication of patients). Transporting/keeping a patient on them for any length of time is bad for spinal injury. They should be transferred to a Scoop or a Vac-Mat at the earliest opportunity once extricated. The Scoop accommodates the natural contours of the body far better meaning correct neutral alignment is maintained but the Vac-Mat conforms perfectly to each individual and is gold standard. It’s so strange to me seeing how things are done in the US. I know exactly what you mean about the KED! It’s a great piece of kit and should be used more for different situations. We often walk people out of cars and are getting rid of collars too.
@@CymruEmergencyResponder wish we had vac mats but we don’t . Some medical directors are coming up with times lol . C collars and backboards are slowly going away in a lot of situations. It’s like not covering the backboard with something to prevent heat loss during winter months . It’s about the entire picture and lots don’t get it about pt care . A cold backboard will strip heat from a shock victim quickly. So laying on it for an hour that’s not padded and done improperly isn’t helping at all. I don’t know why information isn’t spread around the world.
@@JS-zb1vv I’d love to see US EMS directors change their systems for the better. Systems should be driven by best practice for patient care not finances or personal opinions/traditional working.

Thats gunna be one expensive towing bill. There a reason you see the stickers, caution makes wide turns, on the back of semi trailers. Driver is lucky to be alive and have a good team to extract him.
Omg people! Do not ever try to pass a tractor trailer like this. This very thing was happening so frequently at the poultry plant I worked at that management had to address it. Many complaints from live haul drivers and commercial carriers. Limited space to make turn and other obstacles.
@@gsarjos How long do those helmetcams run for on a charge? Been trying to find something to use on my supply runs, but all the cameras I've tried only run for about 40 minutes a charge :(
That happened to me back in 01. I was making a right turn and next thing you know a pickup truck went flying into a telephone pole. Didn’t even scratch my truck. No ticket was given to me since it was the pickups fault, but it was still considered a preventable accident. Almost lost my job anyway.
Midget Army That’s actually not the way it works for truck drivers since they are considered professional. It’s preventable because as a professional it is your responsibility to protect the interior while making a right hand turn. But I’ll assume you don’t care since you find humor in your response. I highly doubt the truck driver is laughing as their careers future is now subject to additional scrutiny and loss of wages that always occur after a wreck. Even when it’s not your fault. I hope you are not a professional driver, your response would indicate more harm to our career than progress.
It's called a roto ray. It's three lights, normally some combination of red and white. Just another style of lights like they have on the top of the truck.
rotoray. And if you think it looks cool here you should see how it looks from the cab at night! :D In fact, I THINK this same channel has a night video that shows it - check it out, it's a trip!
Wonder if the car driver learned anything from this? Every accident I see appears to be people in some kind of freakin' hurry to save five minutes. I watch them drive on I-495 here in D.C. It doesn't surprise me at all that every day at rush hour the local radio stations have traffic reports that include multiple accidents around the Beltway.
Is it common for volunteer fire departments to exist so close to a larger city in the US? Was that one of the volunteer firefighters with the car driver at 13:00 or a paramedic? Looks to be some guys standing around a stretcher doing nothing much.
This area looks like a rural area like one I live in. I live outside a city of 3k people and they have a volunteer fire department, and on my way home (I live like 15miles out of town) I pass a very tiny community of probably no more than 30 people and they have their own tiny volunteer fire department. It's probably required to have so many fire departments in a certain mile radius. As for the people standing around, the firefighter in the car is covering the guy so that he doesn't get hit by glass and other things. There's also a lot of by standers, it's common for people to show up , stand around and be nosy. As for all the firefighter, police, and medics, they're all there for safety reason in case something goes wrong, Ex: Car catching fire, random person causing problems, or just overall more serious than they thought.
Think he’s a paramedic. Yes, Lancaster County is on the outskirts of Philadelphia; didn’t use to be but sprawl happens. Lots of US cities also have a dense city centre, suburbs and then these rural areas on the outskirts. It would make no sense to have city-based units head into the towns. Here in Toronto we have the Greater Toronto Area and each city that is part of it has their own F/D and police. It can take an hour plus to get from one end of Toronto to the other, let alone beyond that.
@@pinlight97 One big difference between Australian cities and those elsewhere is the size in area. I'm in Brisbane which is twice the area of GTA, yet with only 40% of the population. Our emergency services are state owned, so on par with having an "Ontario Police Force", "Ontario Fire and Rescue" or "Ontario Ambulance Service". One benefit workwise is that it's easy for staff of those to transfer to small regional or remote towns and still have the same base pay, equipment etc. For the public it means they'd get the same advanced care paramedics in say Moosonee or Kenora as in Toronto.
"Is it common for volunteer fire departments to exist so close to a larger city in the US?" - Yes, it is very common. So much so that many volunteer companies run automatically with "big-city departments". For example, New York City has several very active and very highly qualified/experienced volunteer ambulance services which will run with FDNY EMS units such as the Hatzolah and Central Park EMS units. The metropolitan Washington, DC area is a patchwork of career and volunteer companies, with numerous volunteer companies providing 24/7 staffing in the same station with career firefighters (Fairfax County, Virginia's Burke VFD). The latter are called "combination" departments. Kentland Volunteer Fire Department runs more than 7,000 calls a year in the DC area. It is not uncommon for "big-city" firefighters to volunteer with their smaller hometown departments (most big-city career firefighters cannot afford to live within the city which employs them). What may be a surprise to many is that volunteer firefighters typically have more experience than their career counterparts when serving jurisdictions with like characteristics. This is because volunteers will respond to all calls while career firefighters only respond when on-shift. As for the rescue in this video, when fire and EMS are 2 different organizations, it is fairly common for the fire department to provide basic patient care for a reasonably stable accident victim while extrication is underway. The firefighter inside will also take on 2 additional jobs that are quite important. Firstly, they will communicate with/advise firefighters operating rescue tools about how the operation may be impacting the trapped victim. Tools have no "feeling" and thus ensuring that something doesn't get unintentionally pushed/pulled/poked into the patient is essential. Secondly, the interior firefighter will talk with the victim and explain the sights/sounds they are about to experience and generally work to keep them calm. Our tools can make very frightening sounds which only serve to make a bad situation worse for the person pinned. EMS will then step in to assist with and then take over care as room becomes available. If the patient is critically injured, the fire department will work around them as needed.
@@TalbotBrooks Many thanks for such a comprehensive insight into how US fire and EMS operate. Quite different to most parts of Australia. Volunteer paramedics isn't a thing here, all are career paramedics. The way US crews run an extrication is slightly different to here. Fire and Rescue typically just do the vehicle cutting, while you'll have a paramedic within or next to the vehicle initiating patient care (basics plus IV access, pain meds and ECG). I guess it all comes down to systems and training. With our FD, we basically have two types; Fire and Emergency Services deal with structural fires, hazmat, swift water, USAR, vertical, confined space etc. rescues and so on, while Rural Fire Service who deal primarily with bush fires and controlled burn offs for hazard reduction. RFS also assist FES if local. FES use career firefighters in the bigger cities and compliment them with auxiliary firefighters in smaller towns. In our state I think of the 4,200 FES staff, 2,200 are career firefighters. Then you have some 9,000 volunteer Rural Firefighters. Our ambulance service has about 3,000 paramedics working out of 290 stations.
Guess what, it's a whole two years later and he's still with the department and they're still posting videos of their calls just like they have always done.
There are reasons victims are asked do you feel pain here here or here, and the reason isn't what people think. IF you are involved in an accident of this type it is normal to have pain in the neck shoulders or back, it is when you do not ( or the patients response is no) that raises a lot of medical red flags. Commonly any one involved in an accident of this type WILL have pain in those areas, it is when they say no that it is a fair sign that there may be spinal injuries or brain trauma. I am not a paramedic I am trained advanced rescuer and what we were trained for is to assist medical in such a situation where it is needed and part of that is , if they say no where it should be yes, be aware. Another good example is if your ( or patient) face is scratched up and bleeding with slight bruising but they say no pain, chances are brain trauma with high risk spinal trauma. Sadly Hollywood portrays these questions a yea i hurt cause i got in an accident which is true we can treat what we can see, but it is what we cannot see that is more dangerous. IF any one reads this is ever in an accident of any kind, Please even if its just a slight pinch of pain say yes, give as much detail as to what hurts as possible it all matters. Such as your arms hurt your hips hurt but you don't feel any pain in the back, that is a flag for medical personnel.
Albert Cyphers I’m not sure you are comprehending that this vehicle was just hit by a semi and flipped on its side. It’s pretty safe to say it is totaled. Also in case you weren’t paying attention they have a victim trapped in the car. If someone is trapped in the vehicle it is usually because they are either injured or pinned by a displaced part of the vehicle. Hence extensive damage.
Being a paramedic for more than 35 years in Germany I have to say it was an amazing job. I'm very impressed by the calmness and professionalism of the whole crew. That is what others can learn from!
Same here I was a former volunteer fireman and I am impressed too

I live outside a city of 3k people and they have a volunteer fire department, and on my way home (I live like 15miles out of town) I pass a very tiny community of probably no more than 30 people and they have their own tiny volunteer fire department. It's probably required to have so many fire departments in a certain mile radius. As for the people standing around, the firefighter in the car is covering the guy so that he doesn't get hit by glass and other things. There's also a lot of by standers, it's common for people to show up , stand around and be nosy. As for all the firefighter, police, and medics, they're all there for safety reason in case something goes wrong, Ex: Car catching fire, random person causing problems, or just overall more serious than they thought.
Think he’s a paramedic. Yes, Lancaster County is on the outskirts of Philadelphia; didn’t use to be but sprawl happens. Lots of US cities also have a dense city centre, suburbs and then these rural areas on the outskirts. It would make no sense to have city-based units head into the towns. Here in Toronto we have the Greater Toronto Area and each city that is part of it has their own F/D and police. It can take an hour plus to get from one end of Toronto to the other, let alone beyond that.
@@pinlight97 One big difference between Australian cities and those elsewhere is the size in area. I'm in Brisbane which is twice the area of GTA, yet with only 40% of the population. Our emergency services are state owned, so on par with having an "Ontario Police Force", "Ontario Fire and Rescue" or "Ontario Ambulance Service". One benefit workwise is that it's easy for staff of those to transfer to small regional or remote towns and still have the same base pay, equipment etc. For the public it means they'd get the same advanced care paramedics in say Moosonee or Kenora as in Toronto.
"Is it common for volunteer fire departments to exist so close to a larger city in the US?" - Yes, it is very common. So much so that many volunteer companies run automatically with "big-city departments". For example, New York City has several very active and very highly qualified/experienced volunteer ambulance services which will run with FDNY EMS units such as the Hatzolah and Central Park EMS units. The metropolitan Washington, DC area is a patchwork of career and volunteer companies, with numerous volunteer companies providing 24/7 staffing in the same station with career firefighters (Fairfax County, Virginia's Burke VFD). The latter are called "combination" departments. Kentland Volunteer Fire Department runs more than 7,000 calls a year in the DC area. It is not uncommon for "big-city" firefighters to volunteer with their smaller hometown departments (most big-city career firefighters cannot afford to live within the city which employs them). What may be a surprise to many is that volunteer firefighters typically have more experience than their career counterparts when serving jurisdictions with like characteristics. This is because volunteers will respond to all calls while career firefighters only respond when on-shift.
As for the rescue in this video, when fire and EMS are 2 different organizations, it is fairly common for the fire department to provide basic patient care for a reasonably stable accident victim while extrication is underway. The firefighter inside will also take on 2 additional jobs that are quite important. Firstly, they will communicate with/advise firefighters operating rescue tools about how the operation may be impacting the trapped victim. Tools have no "feeling" and thus ensuring that something doesn't get unintentionally pushed/pulled/poked into the patient is essential. Secondly, the interior firefighter will talk with the victim and explain the sights/sounds they are about to experience and generally work to keep them calm. Our tools can make very frightening sounds which only serve to make a bad situation worse for the person pinned. EMS will then step in to assist with and then take over care as room becomes available. If the patient is critically injured, the fire department will work around them as needed.
@@TalbotBrooks Many thanks for such a comprehensive insight into how US fire and EMS operate. Quite different to most parts of Australia. Volunteer paramedics isn't a thing here, all are career paramedics. The way US crews run an extrication is slightly different to here. Fire and Rescue typically just do the vehicle cutting, while you'll have a paramedic within or next to the vehicle initiating patient care (basics plus IV access, pain meds and ECG). I guess it all comes down to systems and training. With our FD, we basically have two types; Fire and Emergency Services deal with structural fires, hazmat, swift water, USAR, vertical, confined space etc. rescues and so on, while Rural Fire Service who deal primarily with bush fires and controlled burn offs for hazard reduction. RFS also assist FES if local. FES use career firefighters in the bigger cities and compliment them with auxiliary firefighters in smaller towns. In our state I think of the 4,200 FES staff, 2,200 are career firefighters. Then you have some 9,000 volunteer Rural Firefighters. Our ambulance service has about 3,000 paramedics working out of 290 stations.

What type of helmet camera was used?
Probably a GoPro
UH OH, this isn't good!
They haven't uploaded anything in 5 months - hope they're ok...
Guessing this dude got told no more vids by admin or no longer with dept
Guess what, it's a whole two years later and he's still with the department and they're still posting videos of their calls just like they have always done.

There are reasons victims are asked do you feel pain here here or here, and the reason isn't what people think. IF you are involved in an accident of this type it is normal to have pain in the neck shoulders or back, it is when you do not ( or the patients response is no) that raises a lot of medical red flags. Commonly any one involved in an accident of this type WILL have pain in those areas, it is when they say no that it is a fair sign that there may be spinal injuries or brain trauma. I am not a paramedic I am trained advanced rescuer and what we were trained for is to assist medical in such a situation where it is needed and part of that is , if they say no where it should be yes, be aware. Another good example is if your ( or patient) face is scratched up and bleeding with slight bruising but they say no pain, chances are brain trauma with high risk spinal trauma. Sadly Hollywood portrays these questions a yea i hurt cause i got in an accident which is true we can treat what we can see, but it is what we cannot see that is more dangerous. IF any one reads this is ever in an accident of any kind, Please even if its just a slight pinch of pain say yes, give as much detail as to what hurts as possible it all matters. Such as your arms hurt your hips hurt but you don't feel any pain in the back, that is a flag for medical personnel.
Remind me not to get in a fender bender in pennsylvania... One busted headlight and they cut the roof off
I'm curious to your definition of a fender bender
Albert Cyphers I’m not sure you are comprehending that this vehicle was just hit by a semi and flipped on its side. It’s pretty safe to say it is totaled. Also in case you weren’t paying attention they have a victim trapped in the car. If someone is trapped in the vehicle it is usually because they are either injured or pinned by a displaced part of the vehicle. Hence extensive damage.
I never got cut out of my vehicle I got ejected out so yes I've been in a wreck I know how it feels I've been paying for it for the last 40 years
