Markennz ::: Favorites A job well done. 07-09-07 08:20:30 _____________________________________________________
AngreyMonkey ::: Favorites I gotta give these guys some cradit, they handeled the fire pretty well. They didnt panic or overreact, they just waited for it to get to a point where they could safely get close enough to the house to extinguish the blaze. 07-06-26 23:27:37 _____________________________________________________
AngreyMonkey ::: Favorites What state was that in? Because I live in Las Vegas/Henderson Nevada, and my dad was in one of those flashover training events, and almost all of the guys gurnt their wrists and some of the top of their hands. Wasnt horrible burning, just reddened skin, singed some hairs, and a bit of peeling, but no real blistering. 07-06-26 23:26:07 _____________________________________________________

winters30 ::: Favorites Two of us nearly got caught in a flashover. Luckily the lads outside sounded the evac sig and we set off out. The heat increased massively and constantly and i remember thinking 'o fuck!' Without the sig we wouldn't have set off out in time. We don't get enough live training here so recognising sign is delayed. 07-06-17 12:42:55 _____________________________________________________
kenunderhull ::: Favorites Screaming was probably the women realising her house was gone. Heard about a minor flashover in a training ground once, all the guys got burnt on the wrists (minor) and they changed the issue gloves because of it. 07-05-08 19:57:08 _____________________________________________________
theartofdime ::: Favorites Wow, I've seen a few flashovers before and actually just finished taking a class on flashovers in a SWEDE unit last week and I can't believe how fast that building just flashed, maybe not proper ventilation?. Anyone have any additional information on this particular fire i.e whether there was a crew inside at the time? You can hear some screaming at the beginning but I dont see any hoselines going into the structure 07-02-20 12:58:59 _____________________________________________________
GeneralZodFDNY77 ::: Favorites My cousin told me about a job back in 1998 he was on. Lost 3 brothers in a high rise hallway. They were doing a search for an elderly lady. She got out, but she left the apartment door wide open. A sudden wind gust through the apartments windows and done. They only had time to yell a "Mayday!" and that's it. 3 seconds. That story damn near made me consider another line of work. 07-02-17 21:29:19 _____________________________________________________
