Fun physics fact:
Firm pressure (20-30 lbs) over 1-2 finger tips area (0.15-0.3 in²) applies ~100-130 psi of pressure.
That’s slightly more than a semi trucks tires apply to the road: 90-120 psi.
This is why direct pressure works! You can literally push harder than a truck!
A big day of scenarios - our ‘day at work’. A cast of 80+ people helping, educating, learning, and (hopefully) enjoying. A 5am start for many, and great to have support from all across @EHAAT_ , @EastEnglandAmb , @ECFRS , @QMUL , and many more. Thanks all!
