The Great Wall of Rescue was designed to adapt to a multitude of grain entrapment rescue scenarios. The lightweight wall sections are easily maneuvered and can be aligned to form a wall, a tube, or other irregular shape around the entrapped victim. Once inserted around the victim, The Great Wall of Rescue will stop the flow of stored/free-flowing grain towards the victim and block any additional pressure that may be created from rescuers. At this point rescuers will be able to start removing the grain around the victim, inside the tube. By having the Great Wall of Rescue system readily available, the chances of a successful grain entrapment rescue and the victim's survival are significantly enhanced.

How Does the Great Wall of Rescue Work?

STEP 1:

Inspection

Inspect the Great Wall of Rescue panels for flaws or defects that may jeopardize performance.

STEP 4:

Inserting Panels

Use the step to press panels down, alternating across from each other. Continue pressing alternating panels into grain, one at a time, across from each other. This back and forth strategy helps the tube go in straight and even.

Assess the Situation

Identify obstacles, required number of panels, and locate victim extremities to prevent injuries.

STEP 5:

Bailing Grain

Continue bailing grain and pressing panels down until victim is freed. When enough grain is removed from around the victim, a step may be placed inside of the rescue tube to help a conscious victim climb out or rescuer climb in.
