dangerous job, i am so thankful for those giving their lives to save others, its insane the kind of risk they take, even after saving someone in a burning place they run the risk of lung cancer and other crazy side effects from all the smoke.
ayyeee love your vids
KeytheGreatest thanks for the support.
Mr Not That Famous no problem
+Mr Not That Famous your videos are amazin I subscribed

I am 14 and my dad died two months ago from his job. He was a firefighter and this is really cool thank you guys.
So sorry for your loss :(
Sorry for ur loss :(
Im so sorry! I wish you and your family well!
So sorry for your loss! I wish you the best! 😞
I haven't met a firefighter I didn't like and have had help from them in a desperate time of emergency. I'm sure your dad was an exemplary human being. Sorry to hear of your loss!
Being a firefighter would be so awesome, I'm just not physically fit to do any of that.
right.
its called going to the gym
Ellis M Nicole Arbour is that you!?
HAHAHAHA
Same 😂
the blonde firefighters last name is Kepner and all I could think of was April 😂
Man, me too, she's been ruining the series for a while now though 😂
how is she ruining the series her and jackson have such an good story line going and in general she is a badass
Yass, the season finale was so amazing. She is such a badass. Love her!!

Respect to all firefighters out there. Thank you for keeping us safe.
Well really it's mostly men keeping us safe.
@@janolableach9114 not really tbh theres a lot of female firefighters out there
@@kailamiles8690 But men make better firefighters.

@@user-ze3iu2bm3k Oh, sorry. I forget that people get sjws get super triggered over facts.
I was born on 9/11. Respect for firefighters who were involved on 9/11
Happy Birthday!
But the Question is, *what year?*.
happy birthday
It's funny that the firefighters on 9/11 were all men yet buzzfeed makes a video showcasing women firefighters. So disrespectful.
Me too it's my birthday too today
You should try to do 'Ladylike tries Zookeeping' or 'marine biology'!
Yessssss
OMG YESS

i want to be a zoologist so that would be perfect omg

I'm training to become a Firefighter and this video makes me wanna push even harder!
well good luck in your training
Good luck in your training and thank you so much for even considering this being your career , I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say I'm grateful for people like you
You and me both

That was my favorite part XD
Lol
😂😂
As a 4'11" 120lb female firefighter, I absolutely love this video! I'm also a big Safiya fan so I love that she was in this!!
So it's safe to say, you're not carrying a 200lb person out of a burning house.
Can you carry a ladder?
I hope this is a joke or you do desk work because there’s no way you’re carrying anyone out of a burning house.
@@adrianivashkov4242 The only thing she's carrying is lunch.
She's the designated samich maker and dish washer.
I'm so glad Jen isn't on this one because I would have legit died if I saw Jen in firefighter gear
As a aspiring female firefighter, this was really awesome to get to see! If they can do it I know I can.
I'd love to see them try the male version of the test. Mostly because it's a lot harder.
+AshXXMayftw There isn't a male version in firefighting, is there? I've never seem such a thing.
Areloe Fiezx
Not literally, but they do make it easier for girls to get in. For instance, when my cousin's fiance was attending police training, and their test came up, the requirements for girls were nearly half that of men. Basically, they make it easier so that the women can make it, while pushing the men to their limits.
Actually, now that I think about it, there was a story about a female firefighter who ended up getting in because the test givers had lesser requirements for women participants.
***** I was only talking abot firefighting. A department letting a woman get by (I doubt there were separate standards officially) doesn't mean that other departments are also that desperate. Male/female versions of tests are absolutely not the norm in this profession.
Areloe Fiezx
Unfortunately, that's not the case. There are plenty of cases where women are given much more lenient requirements than men.
my grandpa was a fire chief my dad took after him and my mom was an EMT
i grew up around all of this and i have always known how amazing this is. this is something in my heart and i want to thank every woman and man putting there lives on the line and saving others.
I became an Air Force firefighter in 1978, just as they were integrating women into the position of firefighter. Although there were varied expectations as to what the future held for women in the fire service, I found out very quickly that women belonged there. I served four years, and soon got a job in my hometown department. I was there for about eight years before the city hired our first female, and we couldn’t have gotten a better candidate. I’ve worked with many women over the years, and all I can say is that they had to work twice as hard as anyone else, mostly just to beat the stereotype that a woman can’t do the job, to which I say b.s.!
My uncle was a fire fighter in 9/11, he's fine. He's one of the chiefs of a manhattan department now, in not sure which tho

Please do a cop one!!
yesss
yeah, seeing Ladylike learn about women in policing would be rad. Especially if they could try on the uniforms. The guys got to do that for a video, and we haven't seen a girl version yet.
+nitasu987 why does it matter?
DawnStar Ehh it really doesn't but it would be cool to see.
theyre not pigs
It's sad that their doing this video on 9/11. We lost many great firefighters that day.
It's kind of to appreciate this hard work. So u can see how hard working they are just to save others but I get it point😊
I think that's why they posted it.
REALLY MAN REALLY
I think that's the point
no they posted it on 9/11
My dad is a firefighter at the Ventura County Fire Department and one time I dressed up in his uniform let me tell you the boots are the worst. They're soooo heavy

+Emma ignoring the problem never helps
he means without them as a whole, they still impact many others
zach kelly exactly.
If I was a firefighter, every time I arrived to a fire I would say "It's lit" XD
Lmao.
I love seeing this because my mom,dad ,stepdad ,and step mom are all firefighters, and Emts💕
Don't lie, women can't be firefighters. How is a woman supposed to pull a 200lb man from a burning building. Allowing female fire fighters will lead to innocent people dying. All for the sake of inclusivity.
lets see how many likes i can get
harsh maybe?
+Oridan1 cmon dude it's probably an 11 year old writing that
+Oridan1 I'm sorry this isn't Donald Trump's phone...
Does a dislike count?
Why are people being mean ? He / she only wants to see how many likes they can get
Do a police version of this!
with try guys
It's true that there are a few corrupt police out there. But most of them are working hard to keep you safe. Maybe you didn't see them pull over a drunk driver that would have hit you. Maybe you didn't see them attest the criminal that would've gone on to kill you in a shooting. But the police work hard everyday to keep you safe, even if you don't see it. Saying police are corrupt is like saying bankers are robbers, teachers are stupid, doctors are trying to kill you. There are some people in each of these industries that fit those descriptions but they don't represent the mass of the hard workers with the same jobs.
Sitting on Ceilings did you... even read my comment...? Shall I outline it for you? There a few bad cops in the world. Most of them are good. There are a few bad cops in Baltimore. Most of them are good. And riots aren't a way to combat anything anyway. They just create more chaos. Also, what do you think Baltimore would look like with no cops?? Crime would take over. There may be a few bad cops, but at the end of the day, we need cops.
They should try it. See how fast they make decisions when someone is rushing them with a knife. Or rush them in general. Will they shoot the person rushing? Most likely. There are corrupt cops, but it's not an easy job.
You're quoting a prominent figure of a terrorist group to prove your point? That's not very effective
Saf always slays everything, love her
i want the og ladylike back :/ kristen, freddie, saf, jen, and chantel
This exercise would be too hard for Kristen. Look how much daysha struggled.
are you serious. yeah maybe your right but what if she was really good at this type of training.

freddie looked adorable in her suit
When Freddie is pulling carrying the dummie she was waddling and it was adorable!
Firefighter in training here! :)
My dad is a fireman!
My mom is too!
+Queen _Elisabeth idk y but whenevwr i hear about a woman in a sterotypical "mans job" im like yessss the women are increasing
Same! :)
There are more women in the world than men,unless your counting babies being born,women are not increasing at all and any job is not a mans nor a womans job.There just happens to be more men willing to join that job preferably than women.Just like how you see more women teachers than male teachers its just men are less preferably going to be a teacher.
My dad was a firefighter for 38 years. But he's retired now.
Lady like should become chefs or bakers
what do you think of us running a food truck?? I'm trying to make it happen!
+Safiya Nygaard Woah hi lol
Sounds dope!
+Safiya Nygaard do it do it do iiiiiiit🙆🏼💕
+Safiya Nygaard I love you Safiya your my favorite ladylike girl hehe and please do the idea sounds awesome
I am so glad they did this. As a firefighter, it is fantastic to see real women trying on real firefighting gear. Thank you, Ladies! I know it's been a few years but you are amazing.
this video makes me so happy! I really want to be a firefighter and I know it takes heaps of strength but watching the ladylike girls try out the training exercises makes me feel like it isn't quite so unreachable for me as I thought!
Always wanted to be a firefighter.
YOU GO GIRL! CHASE DOSE DAM DREAMS
Don't FOLLOW THEM! CHASE THEM! TACKLE THEM! LOCK THEM IN UR BASEMENT SO THEY'RE _YOUR_ SLAVE
So did you become one?
+Massman121 😂😂😂😂😂
it is easy for women to join as they have a different standard for women than men and the number of women who are willing to do is small. go join them
Says "excersise junky" follows by saying "i don't have a ton of upper body strength" 😂😂😂😂
I love how one of the firefighters last name were Kepner (Grey’s Anatomy and Station 19.)
I did a few of those tests in explorers and once you go around the barrel it gets harder to pull it. I love how they did this. Fire fighters really are about teamwork and always doing their best and encouraging others when you want to quit cause it's too exhausting or too heavy. They train hard and explorers did too. Explorers teaches the value of teamwork and if you need help they really do their best to help each other out. And no one is ever left behind in explorers.
Becoming a firefigther is much harder than this but cudos to them for trying this.
Thank you to all the firefighters also the ones who were helping in 9/11💙🇺🇸
I've been a volunteer for almost 5 years and I got to say this video is awesome. 👌🏻
Man, I felt sweaty just WATCHING them. I have so much respect for firefighters!
My uncle is a firefighter for Dallas FD and he says they do nothing all day😂 he says they get calls but not a lot and they sit there and play video games most of the time. Still, some of the stories he has told are ridiculous. Respect to all the firefighters.
kristina rodriguez Dallas has a million FD
is buzzfeed ever gonna get over the whole "this isn't a women's job" "women don't do this" ??? if women wanted to do it they would , it's not like they cant.
I don't think they will, these people love thinking that they're oppressed in some way at all times.
Preach
I understand what you're saying. just because YOU don't see many women doing it doesn't mean they can't. A woman can be firefighter if they want to be
What are you even talking about? I'm pretty sure the point is that women can do whatever job they want. They'd be lying if they said that as girls they felt assured they could do whatever job they want.
women can do whatever they want feminists hold onto the 1950s & want to be oppressed
when I was 15 I went to one fire station and they had us try out stuff like this. It's extremely physical, they were so nice they cooked for us played games with us after. to think that these are the people in my town keeping us safe n helping us out made me feel great
Freddie looks so cute waddling around in her suit awhh😂💖
I smiled so hardhat the outdo when you guys said we love you omg I'm so happy
Um if daysha gets in lady like, so should kelsey
*NO*, neither of them should, actually!! It's fine the way it is!!
Nope, Kelsey should never be in ladylike. I don't mind Daysha though she can replace the fat white girl
her name is kristen btw
Kelsey is not ladylike at all she is always cussing not saying that woman don't cuss but she just doesn't seem fit for this segment of buzzfeed. Does she still work for Buzzfeed I have not seen her in recent videos
+0506xjl wow women can't curse triggered
Both of my sisters did the fire fighter explorers and they loved it.
Freddie looks so funny with all that gear on. I love her!
My 5 foot 1 inch tall, 96 pound Jewish mother helped train firefighters as a contractor when she was 55 years old, ran up the burn tower, while it was on fire, in full gear. Beat a lot of the men's times.
I guarantee the best time is from a man. Just sayin.
Did you carry a 250 pound person on your back in a building full of smoke running up and down stairs when you did this? Cause I could train to be a soldier (And I have) and say "I beat the obstacle course, I'm ready to go out and fight in a war on the front lines." that don't mean I can.
women in both the emergency medical and fire fields have to go through alot. as an female Emt, I've learned to look through the stigma that women are weak. plus, I'm short so.. that's another thing. lol
As a female*
she didn't say she was an english teacher, did she?
Girl Wolverine Well I'm sorry that I felt the need to correct her so she won't make the same mistake in the future.
English can be weird sometimes, plus she doesn't need that but thanks anyways
You're living proof that the stigma should be removed. So what's there to look through?
I’m a fire cadet in England, I’ve been in the scheme for a year and a bit now. I’ve definitely found what my job is. Being a fire cadet has helped me focus on my future and my job to become a fire fighter. It’s very rare in England to have a woman fire fighter but I want to change that. It has definitely got me somewhere in my life so far and I hope one day I get the job because it’s the most interesting and inspirational job anyone can have.
Thank you so much for doing this video my mom is a firefighter and she loved this!
LADY LIKE IS LIT😍😂
I feel like that's something Jen would be interested in doing... where is she? :O
Clearly Not wow, chill....
ikr !
+Clearly Not chill..
Jen doesn't work out and isn't really the athletic kind. Doesn't suit her at all.
Frozen Mango none of them are athletic actually :P

I know, right? Isn't it awesome!
Yes this video is so ironic
+zach kelly you're not cool, or edgy or funny. Stfu

Freddie's tagline of "Small person excited to learn new skills" is adorable. Then again, Freddie is also adorable so...
currently in training right now ❤ good job girls!
If I see Jen in a fire truck coming to my rescue.... I'll accept my fate and die
My dad is a firefighter
He is amazing
I dont know if you guys are gonna get this, but, Ladylike, you guys are amazing. Ive watched all your videos, and I wanted to say you guys are my heroes. I love you guys so much, and you're always conquering your insecurities, and making people happy, and just being so terrific. Thank you so much, and always stay you, cause you're AWESOME!! (sorry, ill stop fangirling now. :3)
I'm a firefighter and i was very happy to see more ladies trying this job makes me proud to see people who appreciate what we do 😀😀
Women are really not strong enough to be firefighters
I'd rather have a male firefighter when my life is depending on it.
Women just aren't as strong, if I had to have someone drag me out from underneath some debris I'd want a man.
Women can be stronger than men. There are many women who are extremely strong and stronger than most men. Just because someone's a woman doesn't mean they can't do things that men do.
I've hung around firefighters a good majority of my life and I'd have to disagree. I'd rather a female because the majority of the ones I've met are determined as all get out to save people.
You do realize that not all men are stronger than all women, right? There are women who are and can be just as strong.
KK's Channel
No, women are not physically more strong than men.
There may be a woman who is stronger than weak men, but the strongest woman vs the strongest man...nope.
+CapTrainT I never said that the strongest woman and strangest man in the world are equal, but there are strong men that women are stronger than. If you're ever actually in a fire and it's a woman just tell them you want to stay there and burn to death, because you discriminate against women and give into gender roles.
la👏dy👏 like👏 you need to test superwoman's lipstick asap
I'm actually a 17 year old volunteer firefighter and training was just like this. Fun, but challenging. I love that other young women will get to see this video and know you can do it. I'm only 135 lbs. and was able to ladder bail and drag a hose in the time allotted. I never knew I could do it but now I do it every week. Don't limit yourself!
I love all the buzzfeed ladies, like each video I'm like "oo i love kelsey...yasss quinta...effing slay Michelle...Saf rock that haircut...(I can keep going)" like I genuinely love all the girls in the buzzfeed videos. It's like the perfect cast
PLEASE DO A LADYLIKE VS TRY GUYS VIDEO
Looking back at this after watching Michelle Khare's video makes this one look like such a joke. No hate, or shade but just saying.
I'M SO GLAD YOU DID THIS.
I’m a 15 year old training to be a firefighter I work with a program in my town and it’s a very fun job I’m thinking about my career to be a full time firefighter at Columbus Fire I’m glad I watched this
MORE LADYLIKE VIDEOS PLEASE!!!🙋🙋🙋🙋
OMG U LIKE MELANIE MARTINEZ
where's chantel and Jen?🤔
Chantel isn't a lesboon
they were most likely busy and not able to participate
Crying!!!! awsss their struggles are adorably hilarious
way back in first grade i wanted to be both a scientist and a firefighter but didnt know how to do both and i told my mom and she was so supportive. she said that i could be a scientist full time and a volunteer firefighter. it never even occured to me that firefighting was traditionally a male job. i never felt pressed down for being a female and im so happy for that
no one has actually watched the full video yet
ladylike try police training or course!!!!!!
Daisha is too cute running! 😂 ha,ha put your hands down
Literally my 3 faves are back!!!!!!!!!
