I am a 12 year veteran firefighter/paramedic with Los Angeles City Fire. This videos was awesome. Way to represent our profession, brothers. Thanks....keep up the great work and stay safe, brothers.
i'm planning on becoming a firefighter ... but my question is how do the job days and free days work per week ? nd are there any vacations, if so how are they passed out ?
I recently enrolled in my classes to become a Firefighter. I absolutely love what you guys do and love seeing the smiles on peoples faces whether its to say hi or if you are saving their lives. I cant wait to become a Firefighter and make a positive impact on peoples lives, and most importantly have my son look up to me as his hero! God bless you guys thank you for your hard work!
I'm a firefighter in PA and I thought that this is a great documentary and I even showed it to the new recruits coming into the station that's for the great video !
Nothing but love for firefighters. True heroes that probably dont get enough recognition and the pay they deserve. Thank you to all firefighters out there.
I was looking for a day in the life of a firefighter book for my 4 years old son homework, we couldn't find one that he like so we starting looking on RUclips until he saw your video and he love it. Thanks for sharing it.
Being a 15 year veteran of the fire service, this is one of the best videos i've seen on life in the fire service. Keep up the great work, brothers in Phoenix
Thanks to all the firefighters and thanks for fighting your lifes to save us and keeping us safe.this video showed me alot and teached me so much. Lots of love to you all.
My son missed his field trip to the fire house so we looked this up to complete his homework assignment. He is 5 years old in Kinder. This was a great video, moved fast, and showed many points of interest. Thank you!
pretty straight forward video. Although, it should be noted that the SCBA cylinders do NOT contain just oxygen. it is compressed ambient air. o2 level is the same as normal air (19-20%).
To clear things up, you do not have oxygen in your scba tank. It's compressed air. Oxygen is highly flammable and would not be a good idea to run in a burning building with a bomb strapped to your back. Other than that, great video.
I like how when he was explaining PPE he was explaining it like he would to children xD he did great, i just thought that was funny. I just recently got on with the department where I live. Hands down the best decision I've ever made in my entire life. My second family :)
awesome man, just submitted my application, so we'll see, for the mean time, ill be taking some college classes and training for the CPAT, if you dont mind me asking, how did you train for it ?
ViscaElBarca Hey man sorry, I just got back into town yesterday. Was in monterey county working the sobranes fire on a strike team, incredible experience.. Anyway, for the CPAT if you do some searching around online you can find some good guides on preparing for the CPAT. I'd recommend doing that and finding one that's right for you.
I'm from Liverpool in the UK but I'd just like to say thank you for the brilliant work you all do under extreme conditions, The UK fire department is getting dragged through the mud currently by this government who know nothing in the field of fire fighting and I feel so sad that the people at the top are treating them like dirt even though this government have slashed our fire service to the bone. I'm certainly no fireman I haven't got the balls big enough to do it but respect to you all.
Nice video and very informative, especially allowing us to see the training involved. I'll never forget seeing a small trailer on fire and I stopped to see the fire department work the fire. From a distance that smoke was too much and you could feel the heat as well. You could say it gave me an experience as to what that equipment we see fire fighters in is really for. I'm sure the kids got a kick out of this.
most interesting Video :) Im from Germany...we have 9 mens on 1 truck...(HLF 20/16) and many over vehicles...good luck and best regards from Germany...:D
For me, as a firefighter. i really found this video interesting, because as first responders, we suppose to know how to act quickly to save someone's life in a fire or a car accident.
ive always been fascinated by wanting to be a firefighter my moms uncle Wallie was a fire Captain he past away before i was born but thats all he ever wanted to be, and my cousin which i didn't know at the time has the same full name as me was one also!! much respect to them and every other man or woman that is a firemen!!
my nephew wants to be fireman, he's 5 years old now, and collecting many fireman's cars and questioning me all stuff in that car 😀 thanks for the video
Excellent video, I like how it is easy for a layman to understand all the details of the equipment, the only thing I would suggest is being careful when referring to your air tank as Oxygen. Otherwise an excellent video.
It's a song by a band named Iwo Jima. They were fellow students, and as far as I know they haven't released any albums or made their music available for purchase, but I'll look into it because a few people have asked about it now. I'll let you know what I find.
Nick Fanelli you don't mind if I use your video as evidence for my consept for a school documentary I have to make? no copywright laws will be breached, all I need to do is show my teacher that this is the video that basically helps me to explain to her about my idea for the documentary
Hey Chaimazulay07, thanks for the post, and the compliment. This project wasn't set out to show each scenario, but rather to document a 24 hour period in the life of a firefighter. Everything you see in the video was filmed over 24 hours as a part of Station 9's 24 hour shift. It would be very interesting to see the things you mention, and fun to see someone put that together, unfortunately this project is all wrapped up on our end :(
***** type and use of some equipment (for example how hoses are stocked in the firetruck and how are them deployed). number of crewmembers: mainly in ours ladder trucks we have only 2 firefighters. personal protection devices are quite different. fire attacking techniques, you are more aggressive but I think that it depends on the different scenarios we have and sorry for my bad english
Hi. My name is Gabriel and iam brazilian Civil FireFighter and... i watched this video... VERY NICE! Ooohh! You are better! Are Better! Congratulations! I need to see one more everyday for you are better! Nice

Eric Withrow Thanks Eric!
To all the fire fighters out there Thank you for what you do and that no matter what you are there!
i am a junior firefighter and i just wanted to say thank you to the people that make these videos 🙏
Nothing but love for firefighters. True heroes that probably dont get enough recognition and the pay they deserve. Thank you to all firefighters out there.
I want that life and I'm willing to work hard for it.

Thanks for the comment Daverba, I appreciate that feedback!
Thanks. My small child loved learning from you!

I love your video very informative. You Firefighters are true Heros.
Love this video day in the life of a FIREFIGHTER .
I'm a fire fighter recruit at this moment. I can't wait to actually be a firefighter.

That's awesome! Thanks for the feedback.

I really wish I had some of those big scissors. I would never need help opening my fruit snacks again...

Amazing guys, amazing work. Congratulations (from a french volunteer firefighter).
jackfirefighter63 Thanks for the comment Jack!

This video has helped me choose my major. Thanks to the entire crew of this film and to all of Station 9's firefighters!

I’m a firefighter recruit at this moment. Can’t wait to be a firefighter.
greetings from firefighters from Poland:)
It's a song by a band named Iwo Jima. They were fellow students, and as far as I know they haven't released any albums or made their music available for purchase, but I'll look into it because a few people have asked about it now. I'll let you know what I find.
I want to be just like you and can’t wait to join all the men and women who serve thanks again for everything you do

Proud parent of a firefighter.

That was pretty awesome!!
This is amazing.
They’re like angels 💚
At 8:25 he called it a horizontal standpipe? I thought that was a wye valve?
I really want to go through your training courses lol I'm a fire fighter in maricopa by the way

Nick Fanelli you don't mind if I use your video as evidence for my consept for a school documentary I have to make? no copywright laws will be breached, all I need to do is show my teacher that this is the video that basically helps me to explain to her about my idea for the documentary
Way better than average video of a 'day in the life', but just damn.... How does a FF/Medic of today not know what he is breathing from his SCBA??
I want to be a Firefighter when I am older in the future and rescue people from burning buildings
Great video man!
Harrison Schmidt Thanks!

here in Italy things are quite different but I found this video very interesting!
Thanks for the comment and share. What would you say are some of the major differences?
*****
type and use of some equipment (for example how hoses are stocked in the firetruck and how are them deployed). number of crewmembers: mainly in ours ladder trucks we have only 2 firefighters. personal protection devices are quite different. fire attacking techniques, you are more aggressive but I think that it depends on the different scenarios we have
and sorry for my bad english
AlxanderMatt That's very interesting. You're english is great, and thanks for sharing!
Your English is fine, I've heard worse from people who speak English as their first language.
Colin Leavitt ive seen some that it barely looks like a language xD
To: Nick Fanelli( Really Awesome work on making this video,)
How hot is the fire when you're in those overalls, boots, and jackets?
