I posted this in the Becker Forum, but, THE GUYON thought I should post it up here as well.

Ok, time to shine. Our objective was to use a BK3, to extricate someone that has been trapped in a car. The easiest way, through the windows and doors. First we smashed and cleaned the passenger side window. Window busted easy, and we had our first objective done, we are in the car
Then, we began prying on the door, as, you can't drag an injured person through a window, unless necessary. We started up high, using the chisel tipped BK3 to slip the door frame, and gain leverage to pull the door out.
Job done. Now, since the top was pulled free, we could focus our efforts on the lower door, and the dreaded Nader pin. The nader pin, in a normal situation, is just cut with the Jaws of Life. Our simulation, was "first on the scene, and you have a BK3". So, no jaws of life in this scenario. Fireman S, one of my best friends, and I had been trying to figure away for the BK3 to beat the Nader pin. When we started, we still didn't have a solutions. Ta hell with it, sometimes you gotta dance in the shoes you wore, with the lady you brought to the dance.
Ok, first way around the Nader pin, was to just open the door up like a coke can, and reach in and activate the lock mechanism. Problem, the opening we had, wasn't big enough to fit a gloved hand in. Problem solved.
The door swung open, we were in. Trapped personnel could be extricated to a safe area, for the stabilization of the patient to begin.
We ain't done yet. Matter of fact, just getting warmed up.
Next up, we wanted to defeat the Nader pin with the BK3. Time to pry.
Just a half a heart beat after this photo, the lock mechanism gave, and the Nader pin had been defeated. Fireman G, basically managed to get the lock bent in a manner, that he could just lift it off the Nader pin. Nader pin, defeated by the BK3. So far, busted glass, opened the door like a tin of beans, pryed the door open and off the Nader pin, and this is the shape its in.
Up next, we break the BK3. Yes, you heard me, we break it. But, the challenge doesn' end there, I promise.
