Check out this video below! Great job by our Houston Brothers. Close Call: Dramatic Video as Houston Firefighter is Rescued by Others at House Fire

A Siberian firefighter, in the city of Magadan, trying to reach people trapped in a building is sent tumbling down the ladder after being hit by a chunk of snow falling from the roof while smoke is coming out of the windows. Thankfully, the firefighters were able to save a child, carrying the kid down the ladder.

Watch at :15 for when a firefighter walks right under the front porch and wires begin arching just above him. That is a "Close Call" if you ask me!

Los Angeles Firefighter has close call with explosion at car fire caught on video. This is why we wear full PPE even on car fires. I don't think anything else needs to be said.

There is no need to be this close to an unsupported wall when all you are doing is saving the foundation. Next time, move the picnic table around, grab a ham sandwich and hit the fire from a safe distance!

Watch this video as a firefighter is engulfed in flames as he opens up an opening on side A of the house. There is no word on firefighter injuries and the firefighter continue working right after the incident. Just think what the consequences might have been if he wasn't wearing the proper PPE.

The clip is short and worth watching as firefighters battle a house fire the roof and 1/2 story upstairs collapses along with the porch roof. Firefighters scramble to get out of the way of a ground ladder which was set on the house. The porch roof lands right where firefighters had been standing and as they scramble, the move into the path of the falling ladder. It does not appear as though anyone was hurt.
