- Had a blast working on this video for my film class at GCU. The guys at Fire Station 9 were super cool, they let us spend a full 24 hour shift with them to film this project for the patients and families at Phoenix Children's Hospital. On June 7, 2012 we're all going down to the hospital to show the film and the guys from the fire station are going to hang out with the kids, show off the trucks, and learn how to color. #somuchfun!

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.
Thank you for your service god bless
you stay safe too brother
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 ?
If you can answer this it will clear out many questions. Thank you for your service nd best of wishes
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 am a junior firefighter and i just wanted to say thank you to the people that make these videos 🙏
To all the fire fighters out there Thank you for what you do and that no matter what you are there!
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 !
Thanks Jake!
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.
One of the best videos showing my brothers and sisters in the fire service.
Eric Withrow Thanks Eric!
Thanks. My small child loved learning from you!
Love this video day in the life of a FIREFIGHTER .
I want that life and I'm willing to work hard for it.
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 TH-cam until he saw your video and he love it. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks for the comment Daverba, I appreciate that feedback!
I'm a fire fighter recruit at this moment. I can't wait to actually be a firefighter.
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
Love the fire truck , fire rescue TRUCKS , fire Van's their my favorites 😄
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.
I love your video very informative. You Firefighters are true Heros.
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 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!
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.
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%).
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!
That's awesome! Thanks for the feedback.
I don’t really think people get the time to see what firefighters do I acknowledge ur guys work ur some real heroes
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.
This video has helped me choose my major. Thanks to the entire crew of this film and to all of Station 9's firefighters!
My hero's!!!!adore these guys!!!
Great to see a fellow Station 9 getting it done across the country, this is from Beech Creek- Blanchard Vol. Fire Company in Pennsylvania!
Fantastic video! Thank you so much :) ... have watched it 3 times already and will watch it many more times.
Trixi4ever Thanks Trixi!
Firefighters are some of the greatest and nicest people around.

My 2 year old loves fire trucks and watches this video over and over again
I'm very proud to be a firefighter and I wish my colleagues firefighters from all word good lucks !
Mega Thank You for the jobs that you guys do...May God Bless you all.
Respect to my ALL firefighters. I am planing on becoming a valunteer at my local firefighter Station here in central California.
I’m 19 from jersey I start my volunteer work in August and I take the test in 2 years super excited 😆
Fantastic video ! 12/10 loved it
Thanks Perfectionz!
This is such a wonderful video, thanks for putting this on TH-cam.
Great Video, I'm going to show it to my Fire Science class.
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.
Hi guys thankyou for what you do everyday
I GET SO EXCITED WHEN I WATCH THESES VIDEOS, #DREAMJOB 2023 NEW RECRUIT RIGHT HERE. WATCH OUT HERE I COME
Exactly the reason I became a volunteer fire fighter. To help my community and many other people that visit the area, etc
Dude amazing video I loved it something I've always wanted to do. Watching this makes me want to do it even more. GREAT JOB!!
Firefighters some of the best food cooks.
Thank you for sharing, my 2 and 4 year old and myself enjoyed it very much. This will help us in our kindergarten social studies lesson also!
Like this video.
Pride maintain and serve the people.
greetings from the fire departement Tangerang City ( Indonesia )
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!!
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
it so cool my baby brother loveed the video plz tell the fire fighters your a hero
I’m a firefighter recruit at this moment. Can’t wait to be a firefighter.
Thank you for all, what you do! :)
Awesome video, loved it. Got my thumbs up, cheers!
Gagan Bahri Thanks man!
Good job.Our kids like it !!!
This only solidified that this is what I want in my life.
I LoL'd at "engine cheese"
Pretty funny how this is for tweens and teens, yet they still manage a engine vs truck joke in there
Thats an intresting truck I haven't seen one like that yet.
loves the video!!! learnt so much thank you~~
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
Really nicely done video! Kudos!
I admire firefighters. God bless you !
Very well put together video...thank you ;)
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
mnybags07 keep up the good work I have been a firefighter for 19 years still love the job going to hate retireing next
probly the greatest vid in the world
thats cool how did they fold the hoses like that i might write it down for my dad who is the training officer for are fire dept
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.
This is a very informative video. Good job.
I loved this video and I wish to see more like this god bless you guys and the rest of the firefighters!
Jeeeeez nice engine! Much more updated than ours
Proud parent of a firefighter.
greetings from firefighters from Poland:)
At 8:25 he called it a horizontal standpipe? I thought that was a wye valve?
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.
good video! I was a little sad to see phoenix has blue lights on their rigs....
I want to be a Firefighter when I am older in the future and rescue people from burning buildings
10:31 firefighter mentioned scba bottles are filled with Oxygen. NOT TRUE!! Bottles are filled with compressed air, not oxygen.
Oh I loved this video, fab look into your day!
They’re like angels 💚
I love firefighters
awesome video 🤗🤗
i am watching this for my career awareness class
very nice documentary~!!!!!
I really want to go through your training courses lol I'm a fire fighter in maricopa by the way
I'm sitting in my cubicle with a college degree and a job I hate, being a firefighter would be an incredible career.
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
How hot is the fire when you're in those overalls, boots, and jackets?
It's actually not Oxygen in the SCBA tanks, its compressed air. O2 is flammable.
This is amazing.
What's the cameras you use to record in this video?
***** We used the Sony FS100, a Canon 5D, and a GoPro.
Nice video !👍👍👍
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??
Thank you, happy Thanksgiving
That was pretty awesome!!
this is a really good video. though now I wanna grab my structure gloves and use them as oven mitts at least once just so I can say I did. XD
I can't wait to pursue this occupation
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
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
i cant wait till i could jump on the rig just few more years :)
I’m here from school lol they forced me to watch this
