Save yourselves!….with with the Rescue Reel

Falling from great heights doesn’t exactly do the human body any real good. Bones, organs, and other body parts are simply to fragile to take such abuse. In the even of an emergency in a skyscraper, people are often left with no way to safely exit the building if one or more stairways/elevators are out of commission. However, a new device called the Rescue Reel aims to give high rise workers a second chance at life by giving them a safe and effective tool that could possibly save their lives. The device is rather straightforward actually, consisting of a simple reel and one-size-fits-all harness. All you have to do to safely lower yourself out of harms way is anchor the device, get inside the harness, and begin your decent. How do you control descent? How difficult is it to control the speed of descent? How much does it cost? If you’re so inclined with interest piqued, take a gander after the click.
