Ah… the humble webbing.  So simple in design, yet it can be used for countless tasks on the fire ground. When it comes to self-rescue, a simple 20-30 ft. piece of webbing could mean the difference between having to jump from the second floor or making a “controlled decent” as the room flashes over. That piece of webbing or rescue sling in your pocket might be what you use to rescue a trapped civilian or fellow firefighter who is in trouble.
