I didn’t make this video, my friend made it from videos shot by him and other guys on the job with us.

Academy instructors Manly Molton and Marc Lucero demonstrate the 7-9-8 coffin cut. It is of one methods we teach our FF’s for venting a commercial flat roof with conventional construction. Using this cut allows the vent team to expand the hole quickly with only two additional cuts. Note after making the head cut and knockout cut, the right leg cut (vertical cut) is left twice as long as the head cut. This allows the hole to be expanded after the nine cut (bottom cut) is completed and the hole has been opened and cleared. Once this is done all that is needed is to lengthen the left leg cut and and additonal bottom cut ( the 8 cut ). for those that are unfamilar with the name it comes from the three steps it take to make this hole. Starting with the #7 the #9 expanding it to the # 8. The cut originated in the NYFD.

Middlebury Volunteer Fire Department trains and burns down home in May 2007. The Fire Department conducted a series of training rotations that included live fire training, ventilation, and forcible entry. The house was then burned to the ground at the owner’s request saving the family thousands of dollars in demolition costs. Video was produced by Knightlite Software the makers of reasonably priced study software for firefighters, EMTs, and paramedics. Music used in video is Ambient Sleep Music. CDs are available at the Knightlite website http://www.knightlite.com

American firefighters in action.

Cajon Pass, California June 2002: San Bernardino firefighters scramble to keep a wildfire from jumping a highway. When they get to the top of the hill they find not only are they way too late, but now they must retreat. NOW. This is the closest call we have been on. 2 firefighters were injured.
