      My husband is a firefighter. The maze is SCARY. Not much phases him, but when he went through the maze at his department he finished with only a few breaths of oxygen left. Some of his fellow trainees ran out of oxygen and had to use the special technique they teach for breathing if you run out of air. He said toward the end he started to panic. Even if it's not the true maze, with Eugene being tested on a variety of techniques and protocols as he goes, it's impressive that he finished.

      @@CiCiSpillsTea in my personal experience in the area I live (NSW Australia as a volunteer rural firefighter) women have been treated very much equal, I haven't had an experience (yet) where it was assumed I couldn't do something just because of my gender and we are always expected to treat other equal and help if someone is struggling with something no matter what, that said there are some times during training, say if I'm struggling to pick up something heavy or getting a hose fitting to tighten properly we have a joke and giggle that I'm too weak (usually started by me dramatically saying I'm too weak to start the joke) BUT when we are actually in the heat of the moment and someone is struggling we are all expected to keep an eye out and jump in to help no questions asked or jokes made, as they mentioned in this video every person is different and everyone will react to things differently - again regardless of gender, so no point in dragging gender into it
      As for being sexualised - as you mentioned, majority of it is aimed at the men and that is pretty much true, I haven't really heard of any of the women getting sexualised but I can tell you from experience that most of the (volunteer) firefighters in the area around me are old guys with beer bellies and dad bods 😂 any time things like that are brought up they all start to laugh and makes jokes about how good they look while they rub their bellies or make ridiculous poses, we all pretty much just tend to make a lot of jokes in general about the whole 'firefighters are all fit and sexy' thing

    Where I work we have an annual 1 day basic firefighting training and all employees must participate at least once. This year I decided to join and it was the most physically demanding day of my whole life. We were taught how to extinguish fires using hosts and whatever available water supply. We had to go down a 4 story building using just ropes and basic rope skills. First aid, how to take care of burn wounds, and all that. After that day every time a firetruck/man in firefighter uniform passes by I just silently pray over them because I cannot imagine working everyday like that. Thank you for being real life heroes.

      I'm a college instructor, weird right? 😂 But where i live the areas are prone to fire due to our climate (like summer all throughout) and we also have a housing problem where almost all houses are stacked and one household fire could potentially burn everything.
      Also, our university is just a walking distance from the fire station so it was probably an internal arrangement between the two that made the training possible.
      Although we did not do the closed building fire cause they said it was too dangerous since some of the participants were in their 50s, but we did extinguish fires but in an open area and while wearing gear.
      It wasn't really required, more of encouraged to join. Since the training gave certificates which can be considered an "accomplishment" for the department or college we're under. But it was also seen as an opportunity to learn so that when the time comes we would at least have an idea what to do.
      My original comment had a facebook link to the 2022 album of the training, couldn't find the 2023 one. But apparently UA-cam automatically deletes comments with links 😑

    As the fiancée of a career fireman, I really appreciate yall doing this video but also adding a PSA to try to help them with their job is maybe the most important thing for viewers to understand. Only so much can be done if no precautions are taken. A HUGE PSA that should be added is to shut the door!!! It limits oxygen to the fire and can easily save your life!
    Of course there wouldn’t be enough time to do every part, but if yall were able to simulate more types of events that firefighters go to (car wrecks, medical calls, etc) or how they do their best to decontaminate gear, that would have also been awesome to add-but still an awesome video!

    Several years ago the house across the street from me exploded. Literally. Their heating tank blew up. I woke up because I heard it blow.
    The firemen were incredible. I still don't understand why there are so many volunteer firemen. They all deserve to be paid, and the full-time folks should be making waayyyy more. Genuine heroes.

      Most make a very small wage or a per call pay. It is usually minimum wage or less. A lot do get a small retirement after a decade or more of service. Most communities can't afford to pay for full time firefighters, so they have a volunteer department. My husband is a volunteer firefighter, that's why I know that. These guys do it for the betterment and safey of their communities

      In Australia volunteer firefighting is 100% unpaid, it is completely on our own time, but we also don't have to go through as much physical testing to qualify for volunteering, all the money we are given goes into the station bank account and that is used for the brigade only, none of it goes to the members, even any donations from the public

    My dad was a firefighter/paramedic when I was a young kid, and I loved going to visit him at the fire station where he'd let me and my siblings climb on the trucks and slide down the pole with us in his arms. It was also nice that he only had to work every third day (one 24-hour shift and then 2 days off). That said, it was a bit scary knowing that he was going into dangerous situations. The movie Backdraft came out during that time, so that was an extra vivid visualization of how my dad might have met his end.

It could be super beneficial for viewers to learn basic CPR as well as the recognition and handling of some medical emergencies prior to professional help arriving, i.e., ODs (could cover Narcan administration as it's very simple and widely available now from most pharmacies), choking, and seizures. So many people aren't familiar with the full scope of what paramedics can do and honestly, I think Zach and Keith attempting IVs in a moving vehicle would be a hoot - Eugene would excel immediately, as usual LOL bring in Kwesi and Jonny ;)

    Its easy to just assume it will never happen to you. As a pet owner its so scary. I know I could lift my dogs, but I have an axolotl too, I have a tupperware of water that i change every week, under his tank, just in case theres a fire and and I have to grab him and get out! He matters just as much to me to save.

    My grandfather was a firefighter for about 60 years. After he retired, he and my grandma would cook the firefighters dinner during their monthly meetings. My grandfather passed away last year and the fire station named a fire truck after him. He was beloved by the whole community ❤️

    Hats off to the film crew and production team because it must have so hard to get decent footage but you really helped us viewers to live this experience. And wow! Extra extra respect for what firefighters do!! This video was funny, emotional and educational. Definitely one of the best.

    Former Fire Lookout here (lived in a tower on a mountain!) nothing but respect for Firefights (both city and Wild-land.) Great to see the Try crew tackle some of their training and get a taste of it all.

    please remember all the prisoners in California that are forced to fight fires without the same training or safety regulations that trained fire fighters get

      Where can I read about this? This sounds horrific.

      @@MurronWright Honestly just plug a few words in any search engine and you should get some hits from different people writing about it. Go look at all of them to get some different words on the matter. Not saying that as a "look it up yourself" but I think it would be best to see a few different writers who likely got different people to interview about this. It's honestly very horrible and you should see different reasons why this is not in our best interests as humanity to do this.
