"Hey guys. Ah, you know it's funny, these people, they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good... They wake up the next day and they're on fire."
I can't believe that I'll get to meet Loren Lester the voice of Barbecue this year at the convention I'm going to in July, and I have a 25th anniversary Barbecue figure mint in package ready to be signed.
Even for today as cellphones and smartphones makes emergency calls more convenient. But likely means false alarms can call at any second. So barbeque's advice is still important in this day as much it was in the 1980s.
This one works well for Barbecue since Gabe's family are all firefighters, even if he chose the military and yet keeps reserve status with the firehouse his dad works for.

Of all the guys they pick in the G.I. Joe organization to teach kids the importance of fire safety and the consequences of pulling false alarms, Barbecue was the man for the job! And now we know! And knowing is half the battle!
"Remember, a firefighters job is to fight fires." I used to think they were people who helped you out at the Aids Centre. But now I now! And knowing is half the battle!
@Warrior1984100 actually, it was not a stunt. Thing was that when Lakewood caught fire, Binky saw the fire, which rattled him. when the Lakewood students went to Mighty Mountain, his trauma caused him to pull the alarm.
My freshman year in highschool, there was heavy rain outside and I had a feeling that someone was going to pull the fire alarm just so it would cause everyone to go outside and get soaked and....I was right! To prevent stuff like that from happening again, my school put protection around the alarms and security cameras in the ceiling and it reduced that problem GREATLY. Kids do this because they think it's funny, well I can assure you...IT'S NOT!
+Gaby “Lexicona1996” George In the past, they had fire alarm boxes on the streets in case someone spotted a fire, or if people evacuating their building couldn't actually call the fire department. Cell phones and other modern technology has mostly made them obsolete, though my hometown of Brockton, MA still uses them!
+Canais Young Japan has many sacred and religious areas, many of which don't use electricity, like Dojo's, Shrine's and religious temples. They have emergency call boxes in those areas.
Used to be quite common in the days before cell phones. If you saw a fire or other emergency you would go to the nearest box, pull it and wait for the fire trucks. Then you would tell them where to go.
@@okamijubei Here in Brockton MA, we still have them in place, as a backup in case the electricity and cellular services go out. Our fire department has a dedicated signal division that maintains those fire alarm boxes and the city's traffic lights.
Kids are aware of the possibility that they'll keep the fire dept away from a real emergency but they ask,"Aw what are the chances of an actual fire happening?" The chances are greater than they think.
"Hey Guys..ah you know there are people that go to sleep, they think everything is fine..everything is good..they wake up the next day they are on fire"
"Hey, kids. Y'know, it's funny, these people, they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good...well, they wake up the next morning and they're on fire!"
Interesting how they used an outdoor fire alarm call box back when they were more common. Nowadays they'd probably have this take place inside a school, with a kid about to pull one of the fire alarm system pull stations to evacuate the whole school.
Like, wonderful advice. Although pulling an alarm without a fire may be fun, it's very naughty. Waiting for that real fire is so much more exciting. Way to go, babes!
"Hey kids. Y'see, these people, they go to sleep. They think everything's fine, everything's good. Well, they wake up the next morning and they're on fire."
when i see barbeque, i expect his accent with his mask off, and something like pyro from tf2 or the ideal men off of the tick with it on spy: mumbling devil
Hey guys, you know whats funny, these people go to sleep, they think everythings fine, everythings good.. They wake up the next morning and they're on fire
He's nicknamed Barbeque because of a rumor spread by his G-I comrades of how he sneaks into children's homes that are on fire and burns them to ashes with a white light whilst humming like a robot.
Don’t pull the fire alarm or call 911 if there is not an emergency, such as a fire, burglary, or if someone needs urgent medical attention, since it distracts police, firefighters, and paramedics from doing their job and wastes resources, such as time, money, workmanship, lives, and gas from emergency service vehicles. And that is when you have to pay a fine of anywhere between $2,000-$10,000.
I remember one of my classmate pulled down the fire alarm in my school class. I was living in overseas going to school at the US Army Base in Seoul South Korea. That boy pull down the fire alarm he was just curious to see how things work. I know it was a long time ago.
You can tell Barbecue and Blowtorch apart even out of costume. Blowtorch has an Irish accent while Barbecue has a Boston accent (which explains why his voice reminds some people of JFK.)
Hey guys. Ah y'know, it's funny, these people, they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good. They wake up the next day and they're on fire.
Hey! Watch this! I'm going to pull this switch and we'll instantly get new outfits! It'll be fun! (Or it'll just be an artist fuckup. Either way, still fun.)

This guy gets it.
The comment we all came for
Yes….
No.
I love how the boys hair colors and shirts change in the short time it takes them to walk to the fire alarm
animation error, common mistakes when it comes to cel animation.
The works of Toei?
"Hey guys. Ah, you know it's funny, these people, they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good... They wake up the next day and they're on fire."
I can't watch this PSA any more without hearing those words. It's impossible.
This makes me so grateful I never saw any of those parodies.
Thats a good point never pull fire alarms unless if there was a fire
Ahh, the nostalgic fire alarm box that every street corner had in case the street caught fire.
Never seen one until now...
We still use them here in Brockton, MA
When I was a kid, I did bad things in the hopes that GI Joe would come and stop me. It would have been cool to meet those guys.
That stuff happens for real, they're called the Army. If you or me did enough crazy stuff, we'd probably meet those folks.
I can't believe that I'll get to meet Loren Lester the voice of Barbecue this year at the convention I'm going to in July, and I have a 25th anniversary Barbecue figure mint in package ready to be signed.
Cool :)
You should offer him some barbeque. Lol
I just found out that Lester voiced Barbecue. I knew him as Dick Grayson/Robin from Batman: The Animated Series.

That’s totally II different characters
Barbecue's got a point, false alarms are a no-no!
That was something Binky from Arthur learned the hard way.

The guy who voices Barbeque would also voice Krang on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
So BBQ dines on turtle soup on the side? Gives me an idea...mmmmm, barbequed turtle...

I guess Congressman Bowman never watched this PSA
thanks barbeque!
This is one we should show at my College, considering we've had at least 2 false alarms in the last 2 weeks.

False alarms are not a joke
Fire alarms are used to help save lives, they are not here for us to play with and think it's a toy.
sense when are there fire alarms out in public? I want to see the 1980s!
We still have outdoor fire alarm boxes here in Brockton MA!
Very important
I was wondering about that myself. Now I know!
"And Knowing is Half the Battle!"
Why is there a fire alarm in the middle of the street?

@@ZakWolfthough I still think those fire alarms are more convenient than our wireless phones.

The chances are greater than they think.
More probable in big cities, along in rural areas. Suburbans happen the least with safety measures and fire retardant materials.

Me too!
Never push the fire alarm
0:03 Those kids now have different colored shirts, and different colored hair.
I guess with all the work Toei was cranking out in 1985, they didn't really have much of a quality control department!
This was pyros old job
love the ones when the Joe's abrubtly come in with a cool line lol 0:07
"Hey, kids. Y'know, it's funny, these people, they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good...well, they wake up the next morning and they're on fire!"
My school needs to see this
Interesting how they used an outdoor fire alarm call box back when they were more common. Nowadays they'd probably have this take place inside a school, with a kid about to pull one of the fire alarm system pull stations to evacuate the whole school.
Listen to this Boston bastasd lol
Don't pull that fiyah alahm! Pepp'ridge faaaaahm remembahs!
Fiyah fighters fight fiyah!
Not different kids. They were using 2nd unit stand-ins. Standard cartoon trick to save money.
Darn those kids and their crazy color changing shirts.
0:06 That... That sounds like a threat to me.
Like, wonderful advice. Although pulling an alarm without a fire may be fun, it's very naughty. Waiting for that real fire is so much more exciting. Way to go, babes!
what neighborhood has a fucking fire alarm like that in the middle of a sidewalk?!?!
DEAAAAEDAAAAAA
Barbecue was an arsonist
Firefighter on a combat team........shark jumping.

And besides kids you should only do this type of prank in urban areas so you can make a quick get away!
BBQ!
I use to pull the fire 🚨 all the time when I use to live in the Bronx and now I feel sorry 😞 if I cost anyone their lives for doing so.
Yeah I love GI Joe a real American hero & barbecue
Different clothes and different hair colors!
Is it the Original Broadcast version or the Remastered Rhino Version? I believe it's Rhinomation.
Fiyahfitah
So Barbeque is from Boston.
I remember one of my classmate pulled down the fire alarm in my school class. I was living in overseas going to school at the US Army Base in Seoul South Korea. That boy pull down the fire alarm he was just curious to see how things work. I know it was a long time ago.
A fiyah-fightah's job is to fight fliyahs...
You can tell Barbecue and Blowtorch apart even out of costume. Blowtorch has an Irish accent while Barbecue has a Boston accent (which explains why his voice reminds some people of JFK.)
GI JOOOOOOE!
That pyro is a spy!
Tht's right, kid! *FFFF if that was MY kid I'd have buster him across the chops >_>*
whoa its a crazy killer
Barbecue and Blowtorch use fire weapons right? Would like to see them vs Firefly and Torch in fire vs fire.
this guys name was Kelly, its where I first learned a guy could have a girls name and vice versa lol you know like Sue.
so that's what the pyro does after tf2...
You know its funny these people they go to sleep. They think everythings fine, everythings good; they wake up the next day and their on fire!
0:17, the balcony collapsed and the ladder just continued to levitate.
on 0:03 the shirts on the kids changed, one is green and the other one is blue, and then on shirt changed to white and the other one pink wtf
Wish there was a real fiya fita like babeque.
Actually, he was a pyrotechnician & arson investigator
Is Barbecue from Bah-ston??
He should have pulled it
Actually, fire alarms in the streets are nifty and pretty cool
Smart people, I've tried to use a cell too many times and get a "no service" bullshit.
He is the team's pyro-technician so of course he is to be named "Barbecue."
Is that the same guy from the PSA about how to escape your room if there's a house fire?
Yes.
Who noticed that their shirt color changed at the beggining?
0:07 SHIT, PYRO!
GI Joe... stating the painfully obvious since the 80's
Kinda had to. It was mandated from the studio.
4 diffrent kids!!!
As a kid I thought that was a crosswalk button.
Unfortunately, these fire alarms have mostly disappeared because of kids being like this.
0:02 meanwhile in bizzaro world
Hey guys. Ah y'know, it's funny, these people, they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good. They wake up the next day and they're on fire.
Hey! Watch this! I'm going to pull this switch and we'll instantly get new outfits! It'll be fun! (Or it'll just be an artist fuckup. Either way, still fun.)
at 0:18, he drops the woman......
they change colors at the start
Lmao what was the ladder leaning against after the thing broke?
The kid looks mexican at 0:03, then he turned caucasian with a blue shirt.....
Joey Wheeler in an alternate timeline...
So the Pyro IS a guy after all...
why isn't airtight with him?
that was short
When was there a random fire alarm outside?
Put your mask on, dude
"Bet you won't touch that button, bitch"
