they shouldnt even have had the truck at the head of the fire anyway you suppose to fight brush fire from burned side of the fire anyway and lake of communication a big part plus this is also why the state of ny passed a sop not to ride on the out side of the firetrucks anyway!!!!!

[dodgetruckn15]

this would be a good example of how communication is important in firefighting

[bushwhacked59]

well said ive actually suggested watching this episode and the video of the log pinned baby on using the air bags to the chief of my volunteer company for one of our training programs

[luvscats69]

I agree....

[dixievfd55]

@dodgetruckn15 Exactly.

[rambo670]

wen the guy jumped of the back he should have told the driver he was off the rig so somtin like this dont happen

[Coasterrider210]

damn it you hit me asshole lol

[killman369547]

mat is lucky it coulda been alot worse

[Spiderweb127]

good god thats OLD school

[bushwhacked59]

the dodge on this vid was 4X4 but that muddy terrain can be a real bitch, sometimes 4 wheel drive will just dig you deeper

[dozer785]

What do you mean they are both terrible? If it weren't for volunteer's you wouldn't have any fire protection.And with the state law's at least in PA the training that you have to do is equal to a career Firefighter.

[144FireFighter]

In a few years Texas will be passing a law that says volunteers will have to have Fire Fighting Phases 1-4 to even be considered a basic FF. If that goes into effect that will devastate the VFD's statewide.

[sport1mandi]

wow the driver's an idiot!

[allgood2000]

He couldn't see directly behind him. The guy that got run over should have told the driver he was getting off the truck.

[bushwhacked59]

yes as a firefighter your supposed to keep communication at all times

[Alexiswashere123]

@allgood2000 my dad yelled several times to stop aka the firefighter that got ran over so dont judge thanks

[firemanupton]

@sport1mandi  accidents happen in the fire service he didnt run him over on purpose

[s10trav]

How many times did he run him over ? I count 3.

[allgood2000]

I also counted three, but don't think the tires went over him every time.

[arohn2007]

Actually, I think he missed him twice and got him on the 3rd time.

[bonzty]

@s10trav over him just once

[gregorkrause]

105-956 long speeches before segment starts.

101-105-107 hand gestures made by shatner.

[gregorkrause]

speaking of long intros in #105-956 , #101-105-107 had shatner making different hand gestures to each intro.

[gregorkrause]

on a lighter note there was a volunteer fireman who developed obesity on a show called BIG MEDICINE and heres the catch: he developed ptsd after witnessing a fellow firefighter open the door of the vehicle and he fell under and died.

[jimmyd787]

check out part 2 of 2 of this episode. that's the one i'm in. i'm jim davis, the paramedic on the episode that does that cool john belushi eyebrown thingy when i say "i was concerned he might not make it"

[miked36258]

that guy is the worst firefighter ever.

[jimmyd787]

yeah it was kinda foolish not to tell the apparatus operator he's getting off the truck. but otherwise he wa a good ff and a good kid.

jim davis-the medic on the episode

[NDW85]

I don't think I've seen this one before.

[allgood2000]

It never aired on the Family Channel. It did air in syndication, but not on Reality TV, Odyssey, or DHC.

[auburn4wins]

You took the words right out of my mouth, David. I've been thinking about that, too. Shatner's intro is almost 30 seconds long. Also, it seems to me that he is speaking at a somewhat slower pace than usual.

[allgood2000]

I think that might be Shatner's most long-winded introduction ever.

[narutodude446]

right you should ask or go check to see if any one was behind then back up

[happy7117]

The firefighter who got run over failed to remind his partner he would be behind him. Simple lack of communication.
