i liked this Video...used to run with 901/902 as a volunteer...Know HBFD (formally) was a group of well respected guys who got the job done.

@adam9688 : i agree with you in principle...but my experience on the job has shown me that a majority of the folks who have an issue on the paid vs Volunteer debate are volunteers. A majority of the paid guys don't really mind volunteers. In fact a lot of them volunteer on their time off, and bri...

Agreed....When you get jammed up, grabbing your radio can be quite challenging with gloves on.Especially if you start thrashing about in a panicked motion... I think this drill shows 1) ANything can happen on a job, 2) keep your calm, assess the situation and 3) work your way to a solution. Good ...

How is anything about this video Awesome. Fist pumping and yelling like its a sporting event. Bunch of Freakin retards....well i take that back, Retards aren't that callous.

Time to go to work baby...i needed that

look at Ol AFD E31 on a run...

He was a TERRORIST....maybe if he was brown and worshipped at a Mosque...but no...white guy, member of the country club and a presbytarian...so he must have just had some sort of psychotic break, or mental breakdown and flown his private plane into a government building...Just goes to show...Whit...

Hey, keep it up...keep an emergency number occupied so that someone who actually Needs help can't get through...Real mature and classy. 7:49..here in the US...thats all the time they need to trace and track your cell phone, dispatch the local cops who will come and quickly beat the shit out of y...

wow, sounds like half the people calling sound drunk....

Come on..even Medical Directors for major cities spec out more practical vehicles...That things not going to last in a side impact collision...

Pretty sweet rig...

Station 57!!! Memorial Central...Used to live up the road from this House....

I wanted to...but everytime I walk by Rescue 1 quarters going to and from my hotel..they were out on a run.

I think i remember Capt.Parvaiz flying from when i was a kid. I went to visit the flight deck and he showed me around...will never forget the beard, and how remarkably friendly he was....A shame to hear he passed away

Stop screaming long enough to pull down the mask and place it over your face.....EPIC

wow...what a waste of time....

Need to take that box back to the station and give it a good clean after their next run....

Gotta love how one guy flies, the other guy litterally sits with his hands on his legs...i've noticed that in a lot of video's.....

Quintus: people should know when they are conqured

Maxiums: would you quintus....would I?

Thats so wrong..and so funny...

Awesome video....were you able to get The Frey to use their music for this video...if so, let me know the process, cause i wanted to put one together for the FD i volunteer for, using a different artist of course.

Thank you....been looking for this tract for the better part of a decade...makes me want to get into my car at night and burn the freeways at 110 mph

Too funny: if your children do go airborne, you can catch them before they land.

i love how that one guy lets his wife do all the talking

this would have been over in less that 30 seconds in the US...Starts out with Man in street brandishing a weapon, ends with "shots fired...suspect down..send a medic unit"

name of the song on this video?

Worked with Jim...one of the nicest, most genuine people i've had the pleasure of working with.

I am assuming the pilot in control never takes his hands off the throttle in case of the need for a take off abort?

Anyone who doesn't know Capt. Abbt...he trained me while I was going through his fire academy. The man is tougher than nails, and totally fearless. To hear this makes my stomach turn into knots...cause he's the type of guy you are hoping is there for you when the sh*t hits the fan. Glad and grea...

Dumbass got what he deserved. He's lucky he didn't get shot to death. Hey, he was running from the cops, ever think that in the course of arrest they had to use physical force.

Ok..I am not a cop, I am a fireman, but seriously, The old lady was armed. she was asked to drop the knife. She refused and got taken down. I see no excessive force here. Excessive force would have been either shooting her, or using the knight stick. I see a standard take down of an armed suspec...

Wow. At least the LAPD will make sure the camera's are off before they start in. This is why I love the US. Our law enforcement agencies are dependable and reliable. Say what you will about police brutality in America, but a force of 3000 men and women can keep a population of close to 5 million...

Damn fine driving by the Chaueffer/Engineer Operator. Keeps the vehicle in a controlled direction...and sounds the collision alarm ;-P. Nothing scarier than being in the back of a Fire engine when it goes into a skid on a slick surface. As an EO my hat comes off for this guy, cause if that had be...
