"Like a dumb medic in a Steven Spielberg movie" lmfaooo

I’m impressed. The only suggestion is to improve the audio clarity. First class.

These are the best commercials I've ever seen. Take my money

The first time I've ever seen someone talk about the quick rollover during the CUF phase, bravo. It's shocking how often even a minor injury can lead to men drowning on their own blood when not given immediate consideration. And THANK you for bringing up the number one rule: no one gets a medic if we all get shot, so put lead down range

Awesome video guys, can't wait for the next one! But as you said, good training is much more important than watching a cool RU-vid video. I encourage everyone to take a first aid course as a minimum, and at least a combat medic course if you're active duty. Stay safe!

Why is he wearing his Plate Carrier under his cheast, espacially as a medic he should know better

As an SOF TC3 instructor, I can tell you this is the best CUF tutorial I've ever seen. Of course, there are few shortcomings but even with them, I'm just proud of you, bros

As a combat medic in the British Army I approve of these videos! Keep up the amazing work mate!

Slovenia, f#ck yeah!!! Bravo naši!!!

By UFPRO is all professionell...The Gear is professionell. The Management. The Videos. The actors and something more. This Video is very very nice too. And the head-actor is the coolness in person😂😆😉 Best greetings from germany.

If you have a leg fracture that requires a tourniquet, PLEASE do not bend the leg to pull it up over your foot! Broken bones are jagged and will cut your arteries and veins up! Quickly undo it and slide it under the bend of your knee to pull it up over your thigh! High and Tight!

Being a police officer who worked (and is still voluntarily working) as a paramedic I got to say: I LOVE IT! - do (k)no(w) harm -

This video is unbelieveable cool!!!!

Love my job 16 yrs combat medical field spot on

Best videos on RU-vid

Damn, the way the video was made is very outstanding. Keep it up!

The cool minded person in whole squad is medic 😎

doesn't running you plate carrier that low reduce vital coverage?

The medic actully wrote a book about his life as a special ops in the slovenian army. He says his superiors didn't like that he was giving away the knowledge they effectivley payed for him to recieve (that's why he's wearing the mask, everyone who knows him recognized him but his idnetity can't be proved legaly).

From a nationally registered paramedic in the states, this was a beautiful insight into how real tac medics do t-ccc. I've taken a handful of t-ccc courses over the years, but I hadn't learned the rolling the pt on their stomach in any of them. Appreciate it fellas.

bruh, he doesn't know how to wear plate carrier

Alright, Test One: Aced. Ready for next lesson.

Very useful tactics! I haven't thought about the rolling on stomach move, but it all makes sense. I only knew the lying recovery position, but it's always a nice thing to learn knew things, especially about this topic.

Thanks for the video, im a medic lead for a ArmA 3 unit, and these tactics help a lot with the medical doctrine's Thank you very much

I'm no forces trained person but good stuff and very well 'shot' photographywise and a sense of humour adds to the lesson. Roll on to the next lesson. thank you

I'm watching this series again because it's so good! While I totally get the need to conceal, it does make it hard to understand, as others have mentioned. Still, the info is SUPER valuable and clearly conveyed...and the dry humor is a priceless bonus. Thank you for putting out great content we can use!!

Really good video but why is his plate carrier so low ?

Been waiting for something like this! Makes me nostalgic to my own combat medic training and I love how well directed it is. Some useful insights as well that's not always touched upon!

As a corpsman attached to marines I can say that this is not only helpful to myself but to my guys as well. Good stuff.

This medic is an absolute champ.. But why the hell is the "vest" He's wearing not fitted Correctly 0:30-0:35 from what I can see a lot of the "Health Triangle" or "Killzone Triangle" is still exposed wearing a plate carrier is supposed to cover the aortic arch down to your lower diaphragm. keeping you in the fight, even if projectiles do come into contact with the operator. allowing him to- even if wounded return fire and stay in the fight. Specially important when you're medic is this much of a champ.

I found you guys by looking for info for MET TCCC to teach a class tomorrow at work in the US Army I really loved the video it really gave me visual and verbal information that I needed thank you. You guy got my sub.

I plan on becoming a combat medic, is it hard to get the score to have that MOS possible on the asvab or picat? I will be taking the picat tomorrow , and I haven't had much time to study so I'm going to study today. My math isn't the best but if I apply myself to learning math I would be pretty good, but every other area I'd say I'm pretty good at.

This video is so cool but educational go hard combat medics

I feel bad watching this with no intention on joining just doing reasherch for a book

This is awesome, I can´t wait for the next one! I am definately earning that UF Pro Combat Medic Patch! This inspired me to take a first aid course this month. The quality of the video´s get better and better every time, keep up the good work.

Bro I’m a tccc instructor and I learn so much from your videos I implement what I learn from you amazing material! Bravo Zulu

The plate carrier is a bit too low. Just saying. Other than that - great video

I am some 2 years late to this party but as a civilian EMT-B in the US I have found this video incredibly useful and thought provoking. No, I'm not in combat situations such as are described here, no I never have been as I was unable to serve in our military owing to medical conditions. (That was put in there, bluntly, to avoid ANY misunderstandings to any of those who have served, and to whom I gratefully offer my thanks) I find that the more I know, the better prepared I can be for an active shooter event I may be caught in or come upon, or should I be traveling and come upon such an event or an MCI prior to other EMS units getting there. Thank you for your direct, no-nonsense approach without the standard chest-pounding, "LOOK AT WHAT BAD ASSES WE ARE!!!" that so many have. I am looking forward to your other videos.

Hello from russian combat paramedic. Why the wounded one is applying a TQ sitting while being under fire in the middle of a battlefield? In my opinion he's supposed to be lying as low as possible. There is one more strange point for me, but it's not so important: running full length from cover to cover during the counter-ambush fight in such surroundings is equal to death for that guys. Crawling or at least running crouched is what we were taught. I agree that first respond should be fast and violent, but isn't the rest of these actions the suicide?

It's colored with humor, and I LOVE that!

I’m just noticing how low his plate carrier is

IT'S GREATE!!! (I'm a pro so can judge) I've learned some interesting things. Btw after watching all 3 parts I can see it's not only about treating casualties but for coping with sexual abuse as well !!!😂😂😂

This might sound dumb, but would it be worth incorporating the leg and arm torniquets (i dont know how theyre spelt) into the shirts and trousers of the uniform, so if/when shot, its already in place, so you just tighten it?

The production value of this is insane. The use of CG really improves the footage. Certain militaries can learn plenty from your training vid. The depth of the following vids is also good for a quick overview.

To mi deli...za Slovenijo!!!!

Hooah ! This was definitely high speed low drag training right here. I'm not a Combat medic but had one save my ass after getting hit down range in Iraq by a VBIED. To all the "Docs" who have served and for those still serving...Respect.

Whoever worked on this must be a sexy beast!

Notes: - This video is not meant for a combat medic - Situations can be unpredictable, so be ready to adapt - Don't do it by the book like a robot. Assess the situation and react accordingly - If you have troops in contact, return fire until it is safe enough to address the casualty - You should not be hasty and run toward casualty like a dumb medic from a Steven Spielberg movie - Find out if you have more casualties, how many casualties you have, and coordinate MEDEVAC - Tourniquet application should be done inside cover - If you don't have access to a Tourniquet, apply pressure to the artery or do a stop-gap to the wound - If you can't get to the wounded man, scream to or radio to him to move to cover, apply self-aid, and get back in the fight - If unable to move the casualty to a safe place, roll him onto his stomach. - If you're clearing a building and the first man goes down: do NOT stop movement, resume entering the building, and the last guy in can flip him to his stomach (conduct airway management procedure). Emphasis on DO NOT STOP if the lead man or any man in the stack was injured. - The following time allows you to buy some extra time for your buddy to live so that you can get back in the fight - If the downed man has a support weapon or mission sensitive items, switch the support weapon with yours and take his backpack.

It makes me uncomfortable how low his plate carrier is.

2:02 isn't it easier/faster to apply CAT to the upper part of the leg by releasing it and getting it under the leg instead of putting it in the loop from the leg's bottom? Sorry for my English

TCCCは近年自衛隊の衛生科でも取り入れられてきましたね。講習会も参加しましたがとても有意義な時間でした。

I feel like sending this to everyone who plays medic in Arma 3..

What balaclava are you using?

isn't his plate carrier really low?

Man I just love Ur Videos and your combat pants, I just have Buy one, nur I am literally sure That I am gonna buy some More 😅

why is youtube suddenly recommending me Military stuff, I'm not going until 2 more years.

Ah ha! A new vid- Oh. Fine.

I remember this in my CLS class. "What's the first thing you do, if your buddy is hit?" You gain superiority, or atleast make sure it's safe to do shit. Otherwise, you make two casualties, trying to help him.

Imagine the guy you shot at start doing f****** surgery to himself and you can't just shoot at him again thats against the law..

Props to the guys who have to stand in the backround and the guy getting treated

I wonder if i can add thai subtitle to the video many ppl (both militry & police) from thailand really interest in this video but they don't understand english

Best TCCC explanation video by far!

Nah seriously though, the camera work is beautiful.

Far be it from me to tell you heros how to do your job but I have an idea I learned from people who served as you do that will help put on tourniquets faster. When you put on the tourniquet, instead of going around the foot, take the strap all the way out of the loop and slide one end under the natural gap under the knee then work it back and forth up the leg and then tighten it. It's quicker than going all the way down to the foot.

Hooahh... Combat Medic, 91B10, Trained Fort Sam Houston, 1995. And 91D20, Fort Sam Houston, 1995... Go Combat Medic...

I was thinking about getting a job in tac med, these videos are really useful!

This video would have benafited from clearer audio voice over. #muffled

So underrated channel, good job! Love from Escape From Tarkov - Turkey Emissary Team

Don't know what your first language is, but your accent combined with your mouth being covered makes you doubly hard to understand. You might consider a voice-over narrator if you can't speak more clearly. What I hear is a muffled mumble. Sorry.

Good Video, the only thing that is bothering me all the time is the height of the Plate Carrier.

Ex military police, and I sure learn a lot of skill from these. Love the channel. 👍👍👍

Great video! Make sure to know your team‘s policy especially if working with an active shooter team, in that case turning the casualty making him face down might in some teams mean that the casualty is dead. Although due to the little bit of Airway-advantage you might get from turning the patient over, you probably should find an other way to mark KIAs.

Bomb goes off and he just looks and keeps talking like "Anyway, like I was saying". This guy is epic.

Love these videos! Very informative. A small detail i find annoying in some representation of live fire is lack of supersonic ammo. There are two often a "woosh" rather than the supersonic crack when bullets are supposed to pass nearby :'( Other than that - this is the best production i've seen in such a field! Looking forward for more!

0:24 What is this guy wearing? A plate to protect his stomach? I hope someone in Ufpro is really mad at this, but just went with it because filming this again has to be expenisve af. FFS It like almost under his nipple line, it's exagerated. Like it has to be hard even on purpose.

I can't wait for the rest of the series, very informative! I am curious about rolling the casualty onto his front as I couldn't quite catch the reason behind that. Is rolling the casualty onto his front an attempt to prevent choking on blood, saliva, etc. until it is safe to provide care?

That dudes plate carrier is riding way too low

Its always great to see and learn from another perspective. UFPRO always taking it to the next level be it tacticoolness or real life applications. Great video man! So the reason we turn them over their belly is to prevent them from suffocating? And is it necessary to tie arnd his ankle as shown or just the upper thigh will do?

The way he put on that first TQ was wack, good visualization of being under fire and stressing the need for fire superiority

it would have been a great video if we actually heard what he said :(

why is your plate below your heart..........

Why is his plate carrier on his stomach?

I love this

Thank you for the high quality of your products and media content.

bro your plate carrier is wayyyy to low smh

0:26 why is his plate carrier positioned much lower than the breastbone? Just wonder if it's correct wearing

All around just a great video, entertaining to watch while also being informational, Keep it up guys over at UF Pro.

Your videos are amazing! I´ve seen every video a couple of times! And I love your clothes. Everything -videos and clothes- are very well made! Can´t wait for the next one! See u!

2:21 guy sits up to apply self-aid. Gets aimed at by the sniper who got him in the leg...

Combat medic recruitment ad

High and tight and never give up.

His front plate is way too low

I hope the soldier is safe. Thank you for the peacekeepers' efforts. A peaceful victory...!! V

Wheres the covering fire?

Cant rolling them over cause more damage and possible faster bleeding in some scenarios?

why do you rotate the person on their stomach? In what situation is this technique applied?

As a former combat medic my only criticism is at @2:10. If you want to stop the bleeding with a pressure point make sure to rotate the leg outwards. Dropping a knee onto that spot will also free up both hands to help get a tourniquet.

I am ranger I can do it

Excelente video, nos aproxima efectivamente al desarrollo de la atencion bajo fuego, y como dicen ustedes en el proximo la atencion en campo tactico y evacuacion tactica, saludos desde Mexico.
