Once again, two members of the McClure Fire Dept. are in a gear race. This time, the race consists of full turnouts/bunker gear, SCBA, and mask including breathing air. See if anyone can beat this time. Note that the race starts about 10 seconds in and ends when the second person gives up.

  • how old is your SCBA equipment?

  • @LCEUclan This stuff was early 90's i believe so it was probably about 15 years old. We have older yet from the 80's, but that is all only training stuff now and we are getting ready to sell some of it. We recently (since this video) purchase new Draeger SCBA to outfit all of our apparatus.

  • Again, I stress a more calmer determined appearance. Remember this. The turnouts and scba's your wearings first occupation is to keep you safe so you can then do what is required. A frantic response time is a liability if it results in a casualty to any responders. Get there quickly and calmly is always the priority. This measuring how good a company is by its response time has corrupted the real purpose of responding. more to follow,,,,,

  • Yes, I believe that the majority of the comments posted on this video assume that we rush like this on calls. No so. The last thing we need is for a member to get injured due to carelessness preparing to go in or something. However, every now and then some of them just like to show off at training. This is by know means how we actually perform these tasks, just a couple of guys showing off...nothing more.

  • Yes it is...I'm assuming from your vids that you run with a Juniata Company?

  • Incorrect... Helmet has to be on before SCBA goes on. Especially with the guy on the left since he is doing the over the head style instead of the coat style. Without helmet it can result in serious injury.

  • what year is the gear? i am asking about the coat and pants

  • @shai92 Shut the fuck up. You tell them their lame when your house is on fire.

  • @NewAgeServerAlarm Yes they are loud in real life too.....

  • Red gear?

  • Weird gear

  • pretty lame..
