Gary Indiana 7,000+ Fire Runs In 1 Year, The Real American Idols!

Well the year is over and GFD broke 7,000 runs. I made this video to show what the Firefighters and Paramedics go through on almost a daily basis. For the Members of he department that do not get a copy of the full length video I made please email me so I can get one to you. I will begin making my rounds to the firehouses sometime this week. Thanks for everything GFD! Stay safe and stay warm.

7000 calls in 1 year? Thats almost 20 calls a day all year. Unless my math is wrong. Which is entirely possible. Almost a call an hour. Thats f'in crazy! Thats A WHOLE LOT OF FIRE! I fight fire in the burbs in PA and we are nowhere near that. We had 102 calls last year lol. Keep up the good work, hopefully y'all can rest this year. Stay safe.

Included in those 7,000 runs was c.o., `pd assists, ems assists, gas leaks, so on. Trust me though, Gary has their share of fires. I doubt those poor guys will get any rest, they use to have 5-6 working fires a night along with all the other bs. Thanks for the comment

A tip of the old leather to the brothers in Gary! For some reason they don't get the attention they deserve, they do more with less then any other city!

[mabas21]

Could not agree more, they are something else. From what I hear it is only going to get worse for these guys in the form of layoffs and cutbacks. Thanks to rudy

I'd love to run with these guys for a while, show em how is Alabama boys do it! And as for this Fred guy, we can handle him too lol

why doesnt someone tell "Fred" to chill out?

All this footage that Ed films for you guys he does for free & it is an invaluable training tool! Why doesnt that chief understand that...It really pisses me off that he gives Ed shit after he busts his ass on all these videos

Be Safe!
