  • so so sad what happen.

    I would like to do something to all affected with these fires.

    I am an Architect In Preston not very far.

    Spread the word Archiscale we help design new Homes for these people with free 3D Plans and new ideas to prevent this again.

  • Thats very generous of you. My new video is about Black Saturday and there are links provided in the description box about how people can help. Contacting the Red Cross would be your best bet. They are overseeing a lot of the donations, as are the major banks and Bunnings.

    Once again, the Aussie spirit amazes me. We band together and we rebuild. This makes my heart swell with pride.

  • are you a cfa vollie

  • Not yet, but will be soon! About to start training. When I made this vid I lived in a very suburban metro area, now I am in the Dandenong Ranges, and even though we are only 35 mins from the city, we are always under threat of firet here. I have wanted to join for ages and now I am about to. We hear the sirens go off daily in Summer, and quite a few times a day, too. I just want to help in some way.

  • hat comes off with a large sound of clapping as a tear rolls down my face PROUD!!!

  • I totally agree with you on that one any business that sacks these volunteer fire fighters should be boycotted full stop, If it wasn't for the CFA more homes & lives would have been lost. I have just applied to become a brigade member in my local area & it's something I have always wanted to do but never got round to doing it. KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC WORK CFA VICTORIA & THE NATION ARE VERY PROUD OF YOU.

  • @shiyboy4 what a joke u are

  • i just volunteered for the Rural Fire Service of NSW, i cant wait to get my training started, i might be needed this Christmas, and im sick of watching the yearly fires on t.v i wanna help, and if it costs my life to protect neighbors ive never meet, ill pass it up happily just to know it was for a good cause.

  • I am CFA Volunteer from Horsham Vic, It was a tough day, but the heroes aren't just us, its the Police, Ambos and Firies, all those who were called to Arms to fight this beast, inclusing young children. I saw a 10 year old with a wet blanket beating a spot fire in Horsham. Those who were involved are all HEROES

  • i know all cfa and mfb are working so hard on those bushfire i am glad they are so hero of this bushfire fighter and i am glad they save the tree and some people and i love the song as well

  • wtf?

    who drinks that rubbish anyways only foreigners.

  • a very big thank you to all our CFA people...you work tirelessly to help us..

    i live in the dandenongs and i'm so grateful to you all..thank you and god bless you all

  • I really like your video, so much that for the first time I am commenting on a video. Wouldn't it be great if whenever someone saw a SES, CFA, Firebrigade personal, paramedic or police personal they went up to them shoock thier hand and said THANKYOU.
