Still less dangerous than the inside of a burning building :p

Very much so. Even the cargo container simulators are wretched to be near when lit.

Most wouldn't get past humping hose off the truck lol.

back to Aussie foxying!
My Australian state is bushfire central, but I don't live anywhere near where they happen. I remember the sky on black Saturday though

Yeah, and especially if its a large diameter one (big hose), when that thing is charged full of water, after dragging about 100+ feet that shit is HEAVY!!! .0.

Don't forget trying to drag it up multiple flights of a stairwell, or even hanging onto the 4" at full pressure lol.

My ex was a firefighter, and she dragged me out one day to training after I was talking shit lol. I beat her ass on the obstacle course, but it was no joke. I completely said fuck the ladder truck. I don't do heights like that lol.

Pooler FD has a 6-7 story ladder, since the city started blowing up with manufacturing industry and other large buildings. She got in at the right time, and I was her physical trainer due to experience. I still wouldn't piss in her ass if her shit was on fire, but she's doing good enough at it.

That wasnt a question man, just a statement from experience

How so? The fires are burning down buildings and causing lives to be lost and livestock to die. I'd say it's pretty serious, much worse than a few burning townhouses.

I understand your reasoning but please do hear me out man.

Stuff falls on you dude... like the entire fuckin roof. People and pets get trapped, a person can potentially escape a wildfire whereas a house, skyscraper, or other structure, you can become helplessly trapped, the smoke makes it impossible to see, there’s possibility of collapse ontop of you, and potentially hazardous fumes caused by burning plastics, wiring, and other houshold items.

Granted NO FIRE IS GOOD, but not only is a structure fire significantly dangerous to you and unpredictable, but it is also extremely dangerous to the firefighters attempting to extinguish it and get you and your loved ones out.

Theres a million other things involved but that is the short version. ^^

Yeah, I get what you're saying - but keep in mind that these fires are causing tens of thousands to evacuate, burning hundreds of homes (so exponentially more work than a Dept trying to save one house), and just generally making life miserable for tens of thousands of people. I'm not putting your job down, just pointing out that the damage and harm caused by these fires is vastly larger than a few town fires.
