Rescue tools
Rescue tools are specialized equipment used by emergency responders to safely extract people trapped in vehicles, buildings, or other situations. They include devices like hydraulic cutters and spreaders (often called "Jaws of Life") that cut through metal, pry open doors, or remove debris. These tools enable quick access to victims, reducing injury risk and saving lives during accidents, fires, or structural collapses. Typically portable and powerful, rescue tools are essential for efficient and effective emergency interventions.
