They’re gonna be pissed when they find out about fire hoses

If, for whatever reason, we find ourselves running a fire department in the year 1800, this will be important to know.

u/J_TheCzech 3d ago

Thats how most fire sport norms were created- a long time ago, as a way to see who can do a realistic normalised fire attack the fastest. However as tactics evolved and the sport got more competitive, people started veering way off from realism and started coming up with ways to make the stuff as quick as humanly possible, so you see stuff like this lol

u/hambakmeritru 3d ago

It's a cool sport. I'm totally fine with it. And if they want to make it more interesting by balancing plates on their heads, I say go for it.

u/ThisOnePlaysTooMuch 3d ago

I think this would make real firefighting way more entertaining too.

u/Thiscommentissatire 3d ago

If a fire dept. cant serve me hot tea and scones on the 6th floor balcony of my burning apartment building i dont need them

u/Hubble-Doe 3d ago

Well, once all the waterpumps have been blessed with IoT smartness and the first update gone wrong/solar storm/ransomware gang hits, we will all be thankful we preserved this knowledge

u/diffyqgirl 3d ago

Fear not, we will solve this with AI.

(/s in case that wasn't clear)

They really won't be happy when they find out about fire sprinkler systems

u/TheSwedishSeal 3d ago

They’re the Amish of the fire extinguishing community. It’s a lifestyle choice.

Poor guy at the bottom is getting waterboarded!

u/RussiaIsBestGreen 3d ago

It’s okay, because he said he started the fire and is part of an organization that is planning to start more.

Worth it though for that fabulous hair whip at the end.

u/Numerous-Stranger-81 3d ago

It's only waterboarding if you put a cloth on his face. Otherwise it's just getting water in your face.

u/EpicForgetfulness 3d ago

Wouldn't be so bad if it's like 80° outside

What a weird way to ensure Stinky Harold gets a proper shower.

u/JackF1ack 3d ago

My back is going to hurt for the next 3 days from watching them lift those buckets up the ladder

36

u/Xerosnake90 3d ago

Rotator cuff and shoulders are going to get torn up. This looks brutal lol

8

u/bluepaul 3d ago

Yes, if you sit at a desk all day, and never exercise beyond lifting a burger, sure.

Flippancy aside, if they're strong enough to do it, and used to the movement patterns, then likely no significant risk of harm. That's like me saying someone doing a pull up +80kg is going to hurt them. It sure would hurt me, probably strain something just holding the bar. But to someone who has trained it? Very doable, obviously.

u/tripmcneely30 3d ago

I currently have a herniated disc and have also had shoulder and knee surgeries in the past. This looks like a nightmare.

u/J_TheCzech 3d ago

God fire sport is a war crime against muscle ergonomics istg lmao Check out eastern european fire sport too, japan also has its own and in america they also got something where they even drive a car lol

u/Warm-Iron-1222 3d ago

When I was young I thought firefighters were so fucking awesome! Then I got older and worked installing radios in their firetrucks and found out I was completely right.

44

u/Ruskih 3d ago

I think they had more water on the guy at the bottom of the ladder than they did in those buckets by the time they made it to the top

9

u/Scorpion360a 3d ago

They compensate the lost water with speed so thats fine

-1

u/RedditLostOldAccount 3d ago

Yeah the first guy on the ladder kept smacking his hand into the water every single time. There probably wasn't even hardly any water left in there lol

u/smsrelay 3d ago

You can also call it assembly line: pick and place tool plus conveyor.

u/smoochface 3d ago

Firefighters are fucking hawt.

2

u/fckingnapkin 3d ago

Or just use the hose that filled that tub

1

u/NSLEONHART 2d ago

Not every fire scenario has the previledge access to a hose, or the hose is not long enough to reach the fire in an efficiemt distance. Firefrighters needs to be adapt to puting out fires in every scenario possible, that includes not having a hose

2

u/Bawscotland 3d ago

If I remember correctly this is like a tournament for firefighters

2

u/T1m3Wizard 2d ago

Do they just have unlimited buckets?

2

u/what-the-puck 2d ago

They're being thrown back down, most are behind the camera since it's closer to the water source and ladder, but at 0:12 one is in view

2

u/No_Swimming2919 2d ago

-50 water every time they get it up

u/Leonydas13 2d ago

Never mind teamwork, how’s the shoulder work? Old mate just shoulder pressing bucket after bucket like it ain’t no thang.

u/Zillahi 3d ago

If you like team work races, you might like Japanese Tech Rope Rescue Competitions.

Firefighter training?

u/overmonk 3d ago

Dude at the bottom of the ladder just doing squat thrusts over and over.

u/Underrated_Dinker 3d ago

Why does the water need to be up there?

1

u/flubbardthebard 3d ago

It was def satisfying till I read this was part 3 but there was no link to parts 1&2.

u/JackOfAllMemes 3d ago

My shoulder hurts just watching this

u/Master_of_the_One 3d ago

Hard to say who has it the worst?

1

u/I_Am_Zava 3d ago

They'd probably get more water to the top if they weren't rushing and splashing everywhere

1

u/spence505 3d ago

The one where they ride basically ride a dragster down the street and throw up a ladder is pretty cool too.

1

u/BV_Zamboni21 3d ago

The drill teams from Long Island fire houses are the real fuckin deal...saw several in person and those teams are legit!

u/ufff748 2d ago

u/drrobdds 2d ago

My shoulders hurt just watching this. Great display of strength and team work👏

u/NearbyCarpenter6502 2d ago

I see less of team work, and more of an assembly line structure here.

1

u/Flaky-Ad-4193 2d ago

In real life, by the time they can all put on white shirts and black pants to look like a fit and organized crew the place has burnt down. But at least they looked good trying to dress for the occasion.

u/dnttrythisathme 2d ago

Look up nys drill team association.. this is common in ny.. not sure about anywhere else

My team leads example of team work is his fucking any female willing and sitting with his feet up and on his phone all shift as the rest of us bust our asses doing 30+k steps a shift.

u/polaris1988 3d ago

If fire fighting was a private service not funded by the government those would be a minimum of $500 a bucket. Or we can negotiate while your house burns down. This crew would be rich.

u/cdrewsr388 3d ago

Or…use a hose and a hydrant…act like we live in the 21st century…

Fucking ancient civilizations had more sophisticated methods than this shit
