rescue tool
Crash site equipment
A rescue tool is specialized equipment designed to extricate people from vehicles, collapsed structures, or other entrapment situations.
The term most often refers to hydraulic devices used by firefighters and emergency responders—the jaws of life that cut through metal or pry open crushed doors.
Personal rescue tools are smaller devices kept in cars for breaking windows or cutting seatbelts in emergencies.
