The recruits also had lessons on S.L.I.C.E.R.S., air management, and for the first time- they were able to climb our 100ft ladders. Stay tuned as Public Information Officer Ryan Love documents their every move, bringing you weekly video updates for the full 16-week academy.

As a teacher, I can appreciate the insane amount of planning, effort, and heart it must have taken to design and refine what is clearly a thoughtful and thorough training program that the recruits are going through. The tests, that my friend, who is in this recruit class, studies for each week clearly aligns with the practical applications shown in the weekly recaps. It was quite poignant when Mr. Anderson communicated the importance of maintaining ones’ equipment not just for the firefighter’s life, but for those loved ones who are waiting and worrying at home. And also the stories behind Mr. Pate’s tattoos, particularly the ones that touched upon line of duty deaths and suicide, are a reminder that this profession isn’t simple movie heroes and heroics, but involve real people who have to deal with the ongoing impact of these dangerous situations long after the fires. Kudos to the spouses/partners and families supporting their firefighters/people in first responder services, this kind of life is clearly not an easy one for all involved. I’ve been sharing these videos with colleagues and friends in the hopes that more people, including me, are better educated about this profession and what it entails. Thank you again for all the wonderful weekly insights! Stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ to all the training staff, recruits, and their loved ones doing the equally tough work at home.
Thanks for watching and sharing with those around you. We honestly have the best job in the world but couldn’t do it without the support of those we surround ourselves with from close friends to family.
I like what you are doing ; hope to be a firefighter one day just like my dad . I have been learning a lot from these videos 😎
Thanks for the feedback Carlos. All in attitude - All out effort! You'll get there!
Can’t wait either my father brother and great uncle are all in. Wish you best of luck brother
@@elijahfloyd6251 thanks for the luck ; good luck to brother ; stay safe
@@carlosrivas1493 you too
4 down 12 to go keep up the good work everyone. And always stay safe
Really professional and down to earth agency...still conflicted on whether to be a professional firefighter or police officer...currently a volunteer with my fire company. I’ll see where life will take me, taking one day at a time. Stay safe out there guys
Either way, both careers are honorable. Good luck Stefan!
Chad I appreciate you showing your tattoos, love them and the concepts behind them, you rock!
David, thanks for watching! Lots more to come.
It was really cool seeing how you guys handle running out of air and the process of a mayday.
I’m doing my pre reqs at my college right now so that I can go through their fire academy next spring, I’m so stoked!
I am so proud to be a part of UFA Board. These videos are amazing and the work and effort the cadre and recruits put in is remarkable! Proud of all of you
Trish, thanks for taking the time to watch our videos! We’re glad to finally show people what goes on out here in Magna. Please feel free to share these videos with our residents. I’m sure they’re curious to know what actually goes on at the big tower in town!
Thank you Trish, it’s amazing to see these recruits grow and we’re only a month in. Can’t wait to see them in the field serving the citizens within Salt Lake County!
I have shared it on FB. I hope Magna residents watch them. I will try and share on the Magna Page as well
I enjoy seeing those amazing recruits grow, and I’m very impressed with the training! Love all of your videos! 🙏🏼
Chad, i cried at the end of your tattoo run...i also had a fellow firefighter commit suicide...its so hard to cope with...
It’s very personal but anytime I can share a little about him it keeps him around. Suicide is a real issue in public safety but we’re getting better at addressing the early warning signs which is a start.
Awesome week of training! Great job to all.
Those tattoos are so nice! And sorry about your loss Chad. Appreciate all your hard work
Thanks for watching, everyone has their story, all of which are personal to that individual. Keep watching and we’re lucky to have the best job in the world.
great video as always! continue like that ^^
The intro was hilarious with the snow ball hitting the helmet. Awesome
Just got into fire academy going In august Love the videos!!! They motivate me to see what I’m getting into!.
Academy is a blast, hope you enjoy it! Keep referencing the videos throughout your academy, I’m sure you’ll find many similarities.
With everyone being a keyboard warrior, media in general has gotten to be too much with everyone having an opinion and needing to be heard, and this comes from a hardcore gamer who is always on the internet. However, videos like this are always fascinating to see and really enjoy every second of it and hope more academies follow in the footsteps of this channel. Also, I must say Chad is my favorite, and hearing the history of his tattoos was amazing. The emotions were real, RIP to all the fallen.
I look forward to my academy experience and can't wait to learn and be surrounded by such professionals.
Love these video really help me to understand what I may get myself into.
It’s the best job in the world! -Every firefighter
Ahhh the ladder I remember my first time getting on top of the ladder! Still not comfortable as I should be but it’s fun haha
The old Scott you could unscrew the supply at the regulator and slip it in into your turnout coat under your armpit. You had some extra time and no chance of burning your airway. Also if you have the nozzle and a Task Force tip, the full fog draws enough air for you to breath A LOT.
Done both at working fires... but with modern (and overall better) gear... not sure either would be effective.
i love this tranning!
We appreciate it. Stay tuned for our weekly videos!
@@UnifiedFireUtah ok thanks 🙏🙏
Love these videos! Great insight on what to look forward to! Im currently finishing up medic school and i am sorely out of shape! Do you guys have any recommendations on workouts or if you there is something i can really hit on to get ready for fire school? Thanks for all yall do!
Brandon, sorry for the delayed response. Any type of HIIT training will do the job. Just like I fire scene the ability to work hard for an extended amount of time is key. Whether big or small we all have to duty to perform when needed. Those that just run struggle, those that just lift struggle but those that incorporate all aspects of fitness do really well. Good luck with medic school and get after it! Best job in the world.
Solid work! Is UFA going to be hiring for part time EMS in the future?
Thank you! Yes, regularly visit our website for postings. We hire often.
Hello My name is Juan Nicolás Muñoz Parra Your Video I like 👍👍👍🇨🇱👍👍🇨🇱👍
I want to be a firefighter but I am really afraid of heights. Do you have any tips
Do the recruits get paid to go to the Academy?
29:54 when he talked about losing his partner to suicide. Damn
hi my name is Adam Button im 19 its been my dream since before i could walk or talk to be a firefighter and soon im joining the thing called the CCC to help me get my diploma and help me join cal fire i wanted to know is it hard to become a firefighter people keep trying to tell me not to do it but i really want to. it's been my dream for so long and it's all ive ever wanted to do is serve the comunity.
Should never climb a free standing ladder
Patrick, none of our ladders are free standing. We teach to always have a firefighter footing the ladder unless it is for rescue. “Risk a lot to save a lot” is what we hammer home. I would never want to climb a free standing ladder either. Thanks for watching.
@@chadpate31 the aerial ladder, I've only been taught by the very best in the universe . It's not good practice to just free climb a stick. There are great for getting to a roof or vesing a window, but if that's what you guys do... as they say "when in rome".
Patrick, I totally get what you’re saying. We use this as a confidence thing and have them on belay during the event. During the same afternoon they climb an aerial to the 5th floor for VEIS. This reinforces safety while focusing on a job that needs to be done. In the fire service it’s hard to say “always” and “never” so saying we wouldn’t ever or will is hard. Thanks for watching and keep grinding. Continually seeking out new and more effective ways is what makes the fire service grow. Glad you had such great mentors. That goes further than any book.
