@jimbojamesIV If you look into it, they aren't. You have to realize that these guys don't just put fires out with structures and vehicles, they also deal with plane crashes and other major military-related emergencies. Often the local fire departments will come down to the military base (whether it would be Air Force, Marines) and train WITH the military to hone up on their skills and learn from the guys who train HARDER...so don't jump to a conclusion unless all your facts are straight!

This makes me want to be a fire fighter even more now. But just being told yesterday i most probably wouldn't be able to become one because i have a bulging disk in my back (and being so young at 26), it has shattered me now. But after watching this, i'm going to prove my doctor wrong.
