You've never heard of the "Jaws of Life"? Perhaps this is a term only used in America. What it is, is more or less a pry bar, which firefighters usually use when a person is in a car accident, and their vehicle is smashed up so bad that they have to wedge a device like this in between the metal, which then using a motorized action, opens up the two arms to pry the metal apart to get the person out of the vehicle. I'll add a wikipedia article for you to check it out.
