  • i dont think he paniced or was frelancing, in a zero visablility high heat envronment its easy to get separtated especially it a house like that that is probly all chopped up. he appeared to be calm and did just what he is suposed to do, find air, and await a rescue, no jumping no yelling, just patiently waiting for a ladder. bravo

  • good thing hes safe

  • The helmet its more Util if you Use it !!!!!!!!!!

  • he did great ... and if he ran out of air than the mask would not just make air he would sufficate and no one would want that... and he was smart he found a window and called for help and at that window he had found fresh air....... :D

  • @drummer12345654321 It used to be where you could remove the hose from the bottle and put the open end in your coat. Now with the new set up, the best is to take the regulator off and stay close to the ground and get the best air. Suffocation still causes as much brian damage as smoke inhalation. The lungs may be okay when you pass out, but the brian gets fried either way. I'd rather take my chances with 3% good air with no pacepiece, than 0% good air with a facepiece on. Hard choices.

  • @pigjubby I know it's not the same but you do it on course.. Completely suck a cylinder dry and you're not allowed to take it off at all until the instructors do it for you..

  • @drummer12345654321 That sounds nice when you have never runout of air and the options are few.

  • true brotherhood

  • This video should use a condom. (Look at the Title)

  • @usarmyboy8 In NZ we're taught to keep your mask on no matter what. Cause if you breath in the superheated gasses in the atmosphere in, you'll die with no chance of reviving you. But if you suffocate from lack of air your lungs wont be fried. But I guess anywhere you go you'll be taught differently

  • @drummer12345654321 all the education in the world doesn't mean $hit when your mind takes over...Your survival instincts would cause you to take your mask off because you would be sucking your facepiece to your nose and suffocate...

  • @flyers4forever did it ever cross your mind that his tank ran out???
