Why do we pay professional athletes, celebrities, news anchors, and politicians big money when these guys deserve it more!!!! Fire, rescue, police, military insanely UNDER paid! Oh - btw - how many of these guys are VOLUNTEERS?? To all these real heroes - thank you for your service! I promise to always drive safe and do my part, hopefully we will never meet under these conditions! God bless you all! 🙏❤️
@@fredgervinm.p.3315 Honestly, I didn’t mean it that way. I know money is not the issue, I just feel rescue/service personnel risk their lives sad that they can’t be paid better.
Been there done that. Truck rescues are tough. The worst was a two semi head on in February with negative wind chills. Took about two hours because we had to keep rotating staff. Keeping the patient warm was a top priority. Long day there. Patient was alert and oriented the whole time. The thanks we got and the smile when freed were worth more than any paycheck ever.
Being a trucker's son, this hits close to home. I am grateful for the men and women like you, who are willing to do what needs to be done to rescue others.
I worked a semi rollover a few years ago. I was first on seen a went to the flatten cab on the truck and called out to the driver and was amazed to hear him answer , he had layer over with his head in the passenger seat during the roll.You are absolutely right, seeing the smile on his face and the heart felt thank you as he was able to walk away from that is worth more than most people can imagine. That is also what gets us through the bad ones.
When I see these I wonder how someone can survive and how on earth they can get them out. Blessings to all the fire and rescue personnel, you guys and gals are angels on earth ❤️
When I first started as an EMT, we used cone alongs and chains. The introduction of the "jaws of life" and other advances in equipment definitely were game changers! I'm a retired flight nurse and so miss the work! My job was my soul mate.
It takes a special person to be a first responder. I have the utmost respect for all the women and men who dedicate their lives to this. So, thank you, Audrey Whitaker, so very much for your service. 🙏
That looked to be one of the hardest jobs I've seen in rescuing someone from a accident .Well done to the team effort to save the driver. Respect from the UK🇬🇧👍
Wow. Thankful for these men and women firefighters, paramedics, police officers, everyone who helped. God bless this man whose “golden hour” - the first critical hour after injury - was extended beyond that hour. Thanks again, those who helped . (From a retired RN and volunteer FF&FR.)
My compliments. Seeing a multiagency response with coordination and cooperation is a testimonial to those involved. I was impressed by seeing multiple simultaneous operations being carried out with lots of diverse equipment. It was nice to see that the smaller trees were removed to allow easier access to the inner circle area. Also always good to see charged fire lines at the ready. Good Job!
Never speed on a curvy 2 lane road..what could had occurred??!? A deer ,maybe a possum, raccoon?? Fell asleep?!? Whatever the reason was I just hope for a speedy recovery.thanks God for those great brave first responders!! May God bless them all
Advice from a volunteer for 30 years as far as animals are concerned, HIT them, well deer, moose and elk, try avoid a direct hit, but anything smaller use brakes but do not swerve. You will be less hurt (unless the tall moose come through the windshield) and hitting an "innocent" critter is better than that very hard and solid tree!
I'm no expert or truck driver, but I believe a load shift inside the trailer could also cause this kind of an accident. I'm interested to know what actually did happen and if the driver has recovered from all injuries.
Outstanding job of keeping the patient in one piece considering the angle of extraction and the amount of material that had to be removed. Also, prayers for the driver and all first responders everywhere. Especially the attractive redheaded EMT. Not trying to be nasty or anything.
@@g.r.4853 I hope you done asked the Almighty for forgiveness for ;telling a lie but then there is a difference in telling a lie to deceive someone and spewing a line of bull that is plainly evident. Yea I didn't notice her red hair, pony tail etc either. I bet I ain't the only one that got a good laugh out of it.
I was twisted up in an accident similar to this in 2018..Took first responders 2 hrs to cut me out of my truck...kudos to the Dekalb county sheriff's, fire department and rescue in Butler Indiana.
Wow, strong work guys!! Prolonged extrications are exhausting, but have to be orchestrated in a methodical way where everyone works together to get the patient out. I always worry about trauma cores in situations like this but looks like the patient was and is in great hands. Awesome job for all departments involved :) 💪🏻👏❤️
Tt extrication can be difficult. They present a few obstacles that cars typically don't, like 95% fiberglass. Cutters and spreaders are almost useless because of the fiberglass. You basically have to cut it all out and take stuff apart the hard way. Hats off to these guys for a good extrication
I was a fireman / first responder for 40 years. All volunteer service, we were all paid in the beginning 10 dollars a call. At the end paid 15 no matter you were there 5 minutes or 2 days, all the training and work away from your own business and family. We seen all the death and destruction we needed ever to see, but the players of sports and politician's get all the attention. I have the highest REGARDS to all the volunteers of service and hardly ever watch sports who are all overpaid.
“Hats off to ALL the great men/women helping pull this poor soul out of this wreckage.” What I’ve never understood is all the Nomex gear WHEN THERE IS NO FIRE..for HOURS on end. Yeah, I’ve also worn it working in the chemical plant ON the Fire team...
It's for protection in case of sudden fire and protection from sharp debris from the crash. Jagged metal from a crash is very sharp and can cut through regular clothing like butter.
Hope the driver is gonna be ok. Thats a horrible crash. Thanks to the first responders that go out like that and put their lives on the line everyday to god bless you all and im praying the driver survives this crash. It looks pretty bad
I rolled over my concrete truck onto the driver's side..The air ride seat,pinned me against the steering wheel..They had to remove the back window over the 100 gallon water tank..Cut off the bottom of the steering wheel and part of the seat back,to get me out of the back window..I was knocked unconscious after headbutting the pavement,so I was useless to help free myself..My bossman said that they had a Helluva time picking me up and placing me on the stretcher..Only about 250# deadweight..They had both an ambulance and the Med-vac helo standing by..
Great video, great job by the first responders. Oh I would love to see the whole video and how they clean up the mess. I know Webster Rd , I did not think trucks that big could go down it.
Was this driver brake checked or what caused the accident Great to see all the various departments that responded to colleagues request for extra assistance it's wonderful what man can do for each other instead of fighting God be with you all
Que siempre puedan tener los rescatistas todo lo necesario y lo más nuevo en herramientas q usan para salvar vidas.xq la voluntad el coraje y el corazón ya lo tienen !! Dios los cuide y los proteja PQ nuestras vidas muchas veces estarán en sus manos y su conocimiento. 🙏❤️🥰
Great job and the patience getting the driver out safely. What kind of light were you using that looks like a column? Always looking at better scene safety.
I'm glad I never had to do one like that. Did the driver fall asleep. That tends to be the cause behind accidents like this. Back in the day we even used hacksaws.How's the driver doing??
Great job guys. From how it looked it's a miracle it wasn't a CPR nor a full bloaded code on the behalf of the poor patient being packaged by the ALS Unit staff.
it took the fire department close to half an hour to get me out of my car after it took them twenty minutes to get there. hopefully he’s conscious and aware and he doesn’t remember it
@@misseselise3864 that is awful, I hope you are ok now! I am not scared of much but would be terrified in that situation. know a guy who was in two very bad accidents in 6 months. One he was the driver and the other he was a passenger. He spent over an hour trapped with freezing cold water up to his waist in February in one of them.
I see members of the flight crew standing by awaiting patient removal. Do they ever start administering interventions before the fire teams have successfully extricated the patient if feasible or required to keep the patient alive during the process?
sometimes they do! i had to be extricated after my wreck and paramedics got into the backseat to put a c-collar on me. but that was pretty much the only medical intervention that was possible in that situation. in this specific situation though, i doubt it was possible for anyone to get into the vehicle before the patient was extricated
I'm from England and you will probably have a doctor in attendance for this type of call, either from helimed or the ambulance service trauma car, frequently trauma specialist though your starting to see more doctors who specialises in pre-hospital emergency medicine
Does anyone have any info on the scene lighting that's being used at 7:36 in the video on the left side of the screen?? Thanks in advance. Also great job by all involved departments!!!

I am a fire fighter for Citronelle fire & rescue myself.
In particular stars that are pushed by the media and people who can bounce or throw a ball are waaaaaay overpaid.
I was in an accident with a tree and those heroes used the jaws of life to get me out and saved my life. Thank you Jesus and the first responders! 😇😊❤
Glad you made it out. Those are some true heroes.. may the Lord, continue to keep his hands upon you 🙏😇

It was nice to see that the smaller trees were removed to allow easier access to the inner circle area. Also always good to see charged fire lines at the ready. Good Job!
One thing you always do is pull a charged hose during a long extrication because you don't know if a fire will get started and any delay could be bad.
They had a charged hose with them
I hope and pray 🙏 that the truck driver made a full recovery.
Thank you to all our wonderful first responders. Their work and compassion are priceless.. 😷❤️👍🏻🇺🇸
WoW!!!!😳 Praying for this man!!
Great job Douglas Fire & Rescue and the many assists!!
Great positioning of the rescue unit for safety and lighting up the scene.
I've seen some extrications but that one was some serious stuff. Well done DFD, UFD, WFD.
God bless those First Responders. It's a miracle the driver was not killed!
Been to many semi rollovers in the past 7 years, but not one as bad as that. Great job by the rescue crews, and great video
Two hours to extricate this man!! God be with him. Thanks to all the people who helped in helping this man.
These are the real heroes not professional athletes or actors they're so underpaid they deserve so much more they are Lifesavers God bless them💯💯💯
It always amazes me why athletes get paid so much while people that risk their lives get so much less
Glad they were able to get the patient out. Hope he is okay.
Hopefully driver is healing well. Prayers and thanks to firefighters for all they do. 🇺🇸♥️❤️🖤❤️

Why don’t angels help other crash victims that die ?

Regularly , yes , if an emt can get to patients without hindering extraction ,they will do so while we work free them. At least in my area anyway

incredible he survived that wreck..
No other vehicle involed? Weather looks to have been good? Did he fall asleep?

It's the world's most boring air dancer.
It is an Airlight by LTA 36000 Lumens 120 volt weighs approx 60 lbs
They are about $1,200
i feel like we just jumped from the title page to chapter 8. how did he get into this situation
Someone survived that!?
I wonder how the truck driver made out I hope you made it
Surprised anyone survived that mess.
Well if he still on the road driving trucks I wonder if he's slow to speed down in these kinds of areas hope you had a speedy recovery
I can't tell if the truck was a Conventional or Cab-over, looks like the tree connected right across the driver and passenger seats.
if he survived he will spend his life wondering " why, why didn’t I stop to rest ? "
or slow down , must have been traveling to end up like that on such a small road
This is why we pay taxes. Not for political pork barreling.
Any word as to the cause of the rollover?
So he’s alive!!??
He was mad at that truck.....hell of a guardian angel... didn't look survivable
Wow - looks like a "Better go wake up Leroy" moment.
Sho nuff
I wanna buy one of those tube lights.
Me too. Did ya buy one? If so,where?
Lots of workers there, and everyone is doing something or trying to. No standing around on the perimeter.
THANK GOD FOR THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND E.MT'S
Looks like an airplane crash scene I went to 1 time
Great rescue! 👍👍👍
good job every one of you
