    This was awesome! DeNiro played my Dad, the real CFD arson investigator, Don Rimgale. Was hoping you'd capture the building (Wozniak's) where Kurt Russell decks the guy for dancing with Rebecca DeMornay. Maybe next time! Thank you for sharing this!!!

      Hi Becky, I’m retired from 35 years with the FD. Very cool that your dad had a cameo in the movie. He was a big man, and handed the folded flag to Lt. McCaffrey’s widow. I think that’s the way it happened. Been a while.

    Video very accurate from Chicago Tourist and friend
    I was Facility manager for the engineers and maintenance guys that set up
    ..6 for closed surgery floor in fight scene...we rebuilt back to1950. Colors and installed break away doors
    Kurt n Brian went thru..
    The sign behind door is made of Foam painted like steel...one carpenter and maintenance employee made it two days....
    It was a good movie for our CFD heroes, I believe you did a great job.
    Note: Next to Nurse's housing parking at hospital was used for custom trailer for
    Kurt Russell's real wife to stay she was very kind and
    As was kurt. Treated us all with respect
    A honor for our little crew to keep it professional..
    No one ever ask for autograph...not allowed
    But crew were very good to us as well as Stars..
    Even Mr. Howard visited the daycare to visit the children....that's when hospitals had good daycare for there employees..
    Thanks for the reminder..
    Been here 60 yrs learned couple scenes I didn't catch...

    I haven't been to Chicago in a long time. I was last there as a kid when they were filming the movie and had my picture taken with Kurt Russell. My brother went a couple years back for St. Patricks Day, and found the bar from right after the 70's scene when Brian gets his station assignment. He called me on Facetime and said "Can you guess where I am at?" and as soon as he flipped the camera I said "You f**ker! You're at the bar from Backdraft!" He laughed, and told me he knew that was gonna be too easy for me. I'd love to be able to visit all the filming locations one of these days. Amazing to see how little many areas changed and how much some of them did.

    The most recognized engine from the movie would be Engine 17. Engine 17 started service with the Chicago Fire Department in July of 1970. This1970 Ward LaFrance Pumper was first assigned to Engine Co. 8. The pumper was later assigned to Engine 18. In 1987, it was refurbed with a Ranger cab and E-One body before it was given to Ron Howard's production group in July of 1990. Ron Howard used Engine 18 (portrayed as Engines 17 & 51 in the movie) until February of 1991. After the filming of the movie, the apparatus was given to Engine 69 were it remained in-service until 1995 when it was disposed of.

    Backdraft is my favorite movie and this is an awesome video worthy of inclusion as a DVD extra. Thanks for doing this! How much research went into this particular video and how were you able to find the exact addresses of the various locations? The fire stations would be easy enough to find out but the more obscure things like Kurt Russell's house or Brian's apartment etc. seem impossible to know let alone find out.

    Hi Tampa Jay! Enjoyed the video of the Backdraft locations. However, I wanted to correct something you described at 8:21. Little Brian was not standing at the location that you said. In 1990 I was working as a Patrolman on the cities west side in Austin, the 15th District. The scene of little Brian took place at the SW corner of Lake and Central. He was actually looking up at the "L" tracks. I know this, because my Captain asked me to drive him to the location to see the filming. When we arrived, we were able to see the filming and afterward met Ron Howard. Who was a real gentleman. It shows how passionate you are in what you do. Just thought additional info might help. Thanks.

If you like Chicago Outfit mobsters you can vlog both Mt Carmel and Queen of Heaven Cemeteries in the Chicago suburbs Hillside. They are across the street from each other. All the famous gangsters are there. You were at 54th and Morgan. When I was born my mom had a beauty shop at 51st and Morgan where I lived. The building from Batman is owned by the Kennedy family, Chris Kennedy runs it. The Green Mill bar was owned by Al Capone. I grew up very near Hinsdale. The Merchandise mart.

    Nice job Jay. I worked on the film a vendor and went to the Chicago Studio's on the south side of Chicago. It was there they did the close up scenes in the back warehouse for the last big fire, plus some other scenes like the elevator scene where Billy Baldwins character was stuck in water (the elevator was built on location, so they could get all the angles shots they wanted and control the water better). There was also a room built upside down, so when the flames were lit, it would be in a row like a BBQ has them, and then when gravity took over, it gave the impression of the flames coming across the floor attacking. In the big scene at the end, you can see black strapping around the 55 gallon drums (stacked two high on pallets). OSHA made them add the strapping so they asked me if I had any for them and it was used that day for filming.

Looks like Lakeland for me and my family.. buying a second home then eventually moving in and becoming a Florida resident, once I get there and settled.... I'd like to buy you Guinness.. by the way I watched you play guitar and sing in a video , you got a pretty good voice my friend. I think it's when you were doing a Tom Petty tribute, anyway you played good and you sang good.. being a musician for 30+ years I thought it was pretty cool.

    I grew up around the corner from Swayzak's house. I was either 7 or 8 when they were there filming and it was so exciting to ride our bikes over there to watch! A year or two later, Dennis the Menace was shot at a couple places nearby, as well as a few insurance commercials (one of which used our house!) So cool to see familiar places. Thanks for the video!
    Edit: Oh look you got the end of my street at 47:16!
