Below is a typical Breathing Apparatus (BA)
drill using a 'living' drag dummy as a casualty.
The firemen must locate the drag dummy, and lift it to safety, from the firehouse.
They must make sure that this is done safely, so as not injure themselves in the
process.
The dummies are weighted between 70 and 80 kgs, so this must only be done by two people.
Two Firemen wearing BA

One Fireman holds the dummy
