Thanks Captain for showing as much as you could of the Fire and EMS calls over a 24 hour time period 👍👍😎 You did a great job detailing what you do, and showing how you care about your team 👍👍🎉🎉
This didnt seem edited to make it look all glorified. This shows what really goes on and how busy/tiring each day is for these men. We all appreciate you 🙏🏼

Thanks for your comment! We tried our best to accurately portray a typical day.
Great video guys! I work for a non-US Fire and Rescue Service in a non-operational role and was wondering what the difference is between the black and light brown kit that you wear?
2 ปีที่แล้ว +5
Thanks for your comment and your contribution to the fire and rescue service! The black kit is our structure gear (also known as bunker gear). It offers the most protection, such as when entering a burning home; however, it's very heavy (typically around 60-70 pounds). The yellow/light brown kit is our wildland gear that is used for wildfires, brush fires, etc... It weighs a lot less (30-40 pounds) and allows crew to quickly maneuver around difficult terrain to combat wildfires.

When a firefighter is promoted to fire captain, they become a probationary fire captain for one year; during this time, they learn as much as possible about the role and prove that they have what it takes to be a captain.
@ Didn't know they had probation periods for Captains, I thought once you became Captain that was that, but alright, congratulations on the promotion, and thank you for the responses. 🙏🏾
so wait.... what does the captain do during a fire emergency? do they also put out the fires as well? or do they just stay there giving commands?

A fire captain has many roles. They are primarily front line supervisors responsible for the safety of their crews. Typically, they will initially focus on assessing the situation and giving commands to their crews; however, they may also conduct firefighting operations when the situation is under control. In this video (around 6:20), you can see CA Gutierrez assisting the crews with mop-up operations because at that point the fire was under control.
@ So they mostly give commands to the lieutenants?

@@Lavabird827 It is a large part of their job, yes, but it fluctuates depending on the severity of the incident and when they arrive on scene. It's also a judgement call. If a situation doesn't require supervision, then the fire captain may choose to be more hands-on. In the freeway fire shown in this video, CA Gutierrez was the first to arrive on scene (on that side of the freeway) and so his primary focus was giving directions, monitoring the fire for changing conditions, and making sure his crew was safe.

Thank you for your comment @ECduzitgood. 95% of this video was filmed during the crew's regular hours. Filming was incorporated into that day's schedule and was done in a way as to not interrupt daily operations. In essence, this crew gave up some of their limited downtime in order to help with this video. Otherwise, these videos are not monetized.
Like good movie making....you take the busiest day ever....before or after...and make THAT you busy day....and WTF is a probationary captain....the crap you fire people come up with.

Thanks for your question. There was no script to this video, but the scenes were filmed in a way that would make the most sense to the viewer.
Twenty years to make captain!. I did it in five must of been a diversity promotion..
At SJFD, some personnel work to promote quickly through the department, while others prefer to stay at certain ranks.
