Description
The KJ Fire Department held a training drill focused on using airbags and cribbing to lift heavy objects safely during rescue operations. Firefighters practiced lifting scenarios, including a simulation where someone might be trapped under a large container weighing over 11 tons. They also worked on lifting and stabilizing a school bus, a difficult task because of its size and weight. This training helps the team learn different ways to lift heavy objects safely to rescue people who may be pinned. The airbags they use can lift up to 60 tons, making them an important tool for emergencies. The drills improve the firefighters’ skills and teamwork so they are ready to respond quickly and safely when real emergencies happen.
