Much to unpack here….
To me, breaching is a very sensitive task. Not just because of the breaching event itself, but because of everything happening around the door and, more importantly, what might be happening behind it before the breach even takes place.
Different approaches to breaching come with different considerations, but I think this video highlights some very basic misunderstandings that can become extremely problematic.
Positioning prior to the breach, coordination between individuals, unnecessary activity around the door, and sweeping the threshold with white light in a way that seems to serve no clear purpose, while in reality…it creates an extremely dangerous conditions to the breach.
These are not necessarily small details. to me…this…reflect how people understand the problem they are trying to solve.
Breaching is not an isolated technical action. It is part of a much larger problem, and what happens before the door opens matters just as much as the breach itself, regardless on how exactly you are breaching.
What else you noticed here? Curious of your take aways.
