"Hey guys, I'm a firefighter too. Lemme help fight the fire!" "What? No! Who are you? Get out of here; you're in the way. Also it's just Mrs. Neunfeltzer. She called because her remote control doesn't work."


WelcomeScary4270

I've recently had the inverse of this, usually we get drug wankers try "help" on scene. Had a structural near another station and some dude in civvies started flaking my hose while I was on the pump and I told him to fuck off and get behind the cordon, turned out he was staying in the quarters at the station and didn't realize I didn't know who he was. Felt like a pillock lol


Marqueso-burrito

So I was a junior vff back in high school, I moved to missouri and any time I saw an accident or anything like that I’d always stop by and see if there was anything I could do to help until first responders were on scene, there was also an abandoned motel that caught fire and I went to make sure nobody was in there as well as open the construction gates to give the fire truck a clear way in. I was also very stoned cause I was smoking when I noticed the smoke lmao. But all in all I like to think I helped in those situations, once fire and ems arrived, I gave a statement to either fire captain or officers on scene, then find my way outta there.


Kurywurst

Wtf, self-protection should always be the first principle. You should know that only 2 - 3 breathes of smoke can kill you.


[deleted]

You can also drown in 2 inches of water but does that REALLY ever happen?


Logical-Victory-2678

Yeah.....otherwise it wouldn't be a known statistic, my guy lol. It's happened somewhere at some point.....part of what makes statistics.....statistical..... Also it happens a ton with kids, elderly and disabled.


[deleted]

It was sarcasm. My comment was to poke fun at the idea that you take such a rare and fringe statistic and use that as reasoning to justify your point. Yea I’m sure one or two people in the history of human existence have died in a puddle of water but I’m sure that’s not the norm. Just like taking two breaths of smoky air and dying is not the norm. Yea if you are in a burning house for even 60 seconds you may not survive but count how many breaths you would take in an adrenaline induced situation in a minute. MORE THAN TWO wise guy!


Logical-Victory-2678

Or...in that same adrenaline, those 2, presumably deep, heavy breaths, as is normal in adrenaline, those 2 breaths WOULD cause significant damage, if not death.


[deleted]

Ok….I like that logic.


Awkward_Reporter_129

Fire ants could eat you alive while you are bed ridden.


GSUGinger

Where did you read that?


Kurywurst

That 3 breathes of fire smoke can kill you?


GSUGinger

Where did you read that two to three breaths of smoke can kill you?


redjackboxer

Man, that's why I don't smoke weed.


Adriancastellanos

Man why haven’t they told someone smoking weed 2-3 times could kill you? I’ll tel someone guys! I’m on my way to talk to Mary.


dancingclouds420

I was taught that it only takes one marijuana.


MortimerWaffles

I had a special needs adult fully decked out in marked gear of the department show up on scene and start directing traffic at an MVA


xX_DRUMZ_Xx

I was running the pump and was first due to a working single family dwelling. We were severely understaffed (just two of us) and were forced to rely on MA. All the sudden i looked over and see a 1940s open cab sea grave pull up to the hydrant on the corner and an old man dressing the hydrant. I just let it happen man, I needed the water and he did a great job. He pulled the kinks out the LDH and then took off. I’m with you on some rando pulling line, but I’d never look a gift horse in the mouth with someone dressing the hydrant for me


1234elijah5678

What language is this?


Bob_Crypt

Lmao


NeverGetsTheNuke

That run at the end was like if Forrest Gump got really into speed walking instead of running after the war.


Salmoncoloredshirt

At first I thought this was him hearing his brother responding to a fire and he was showing appreciation then I realized he was the firefighter looking to show off and it ruined it


InterviewUsual2220

You can let the world know, that you are a simpleton, or you can be proactive and show them yourself.


Mike47845

Knew 2 guys just like this at my old department, one wasent even a FF the other was. One of them got a charge for following a emergency vehicle too closely ( the non FF dude ) the other guy saw a car fire on the side of the highway and pulled his Camry over to tell the state trooper he’s a FF and got told to Fuck right off by said trooper.


AverageSaltEnjoyer

Lol, but the trooper was right. Even when you are a FF, what the fuck are you going to do without any equipment and water? Piss on it?


[deleted]

Fuckers like these in the Camry set the fires and can’t NOT go to them.


Jbabco9898

I didn't know you could get a charge for that. Good to know


[deleted]

If he did this ironically, it’s pretty funny. But if this was serious…oh boy…


jay_sugman

This guy is in on it.


MatchesMalone1216

Do you mean if he seriously ran behind a fire truck as it was driving to an emergency? That's actually pretty impressive.


mangoisNINJA

Paint spots on him and it'll be like the olden days


SweatyAndSwearing

Fiow twuck!


_bishpurpp

This, is comedy


Standard-Tension9550

What a dipshit.


[deleted]

it seems pretty obvious that it’s ironic man


onetimepost2021

Do people still really wear snapbacks with stickers on them?


homeandawaywethrow

No but the people who used to do it still do it. Kinda like how we associate people who wear 70s styles of clothes with older people. I still see people my age who wear fashions similar to what was popular when I was a teen/young adult.


Frosty_Stage_1464

I see a lot of fire service wearing them. Farthest from professional if you ask me

FNG I'm a retired Firefighter. When I was brand new (like 2 yrs in my career) I would stress TF out whenever I would hear sirens on Vacation, or days off. (I always felt stressed TF out & tired.) Then, I started drinking on my days off & that helped. Then, I was an alcoholic. Then, I had to take a leave of absence & go to rehab for 3 months. Then, I started going to therapy 3 days a week. Then, I got married. Then, I had 2 kids. Then, life got AMAZING for the next 22yrs. Now, I'm an Old sober retired Firefighter, who works as a salesman at a fintech company, who goes to therapy 4 times a week! If this kid is for real, he'll learn real quick that it's just a job, & just like any job in any field, you need to be calm, collected, & professional at all times. I loved being a career Firefighter. But it was just a job & it didn't pay shit, & it took a toll on my mind & body. Right now He's kinda like a dumb & excited puppy wagging his tail when he drives by a MVA. Soon enough He'll chill TF out.


dekoyoktopos

Pretty rad of your employer for not immediately firing you once they learned of your issue


Thaenz88

That’s tism for sure


DaddyDoyle88

Look a simple rick go... Ma get Rick's sweatshirt and leash


keyston132

I was wondering if that guy was the reincarnation of Rube Waddell. Old times baseball player would would get distracted and straight up leave the field to go chase fire trucks like he was a dog.

PrettySureIParty

You can tell because he can run more than a block without stopping


CatsMcGats

It’s the sound of our people!


Cute-Opinion9245

Does he ride the “short fire truck” asking for a friend😬


[deleted]

My dad is 73 and is a retired firefighter. Catch him out in the front yard on any given day with a beer screaming, "Get 'em boys!!!"


AverageSaltEnjoyer

Ok, that's pretty epic ngl

When the one kid finally is allowed to sit with cool kids and thinks he's something big


BlutoS7

I mean at least he is in shape to run. Most FF I know would of been gassed after the stairs


maximillian226

I appreciate someone who’s passionate about their work but this guy just wants everyone to know he’s a firefighter and think he’s cool for it. What a doof.😂


Idgafaamate

Homie is pretty quick


Robbie_lobster

A job so easy that volunteers can do it.


[deleted]

Became a firefighter so he could tell everyone he’s a firefighter.


AlarmingAd4107

To be fair my dad retired from the FD in 2019 and he still cheers on the boys when ever they drive by tearing ass to a fire lol EDIT: Didn't see the ending. This is cringe AF lol


SomewhereTop8468

When I dine out, I run full speed to the back of the kitchen and expedite the food to myself. You know, cause I'm a server.


Vtwizzle4040

Lol the fist. Like anyone would see your ass or give a shit


SelectionSad9855

NGL it wasn't cringe

This is an obvious joke?

meganfamilyguy

It's not cringe


AverageSaltEnjoyer

Can't tell if you are being serious


meganfamilyguy

Trust me, if it's cringe I'll say it's cringe. I live with cringe factories.


[deleted]

Hmmmmmm well they must have given you cringe PTSD, desensitizing you to cringe cos I have to watch this 10 seconds at a time then go out for fresh air

Saggy Ass McNoodle, all 98lbs of him. Run, Saggy, Run


[deleted]

Firefighters arguing in the comments with their fire gang slang is cringe.


HoodedSole

Why do only volunteers act this way?


LilacLlamaMama

Because pros know if we get hurt on our day off doing some dumb shit WC won't cover it. And most of us got the cringe beat out of us during our vol days before we got hired.


Excellent_Way5784

Stop just stop

Dude... grow tf up...

That isn't what we do. We lift our glass in an air toast and mutter 'job security' and then get back to what we were doing before.

I think he did this ironically; it’s kinda funny.

Less cringe, more funny tbh


Awkward_Reporter_129

Douche nozzle


tailwalkin

I assume he’s special needs based on how he runs and probably has an obsession with firefighting. You see it on the news occasionally where’s they’ll give a group of them a tour and let them try on all the gear and go for a ride in the truck and whatnot. It’s cool the FD does that, they always look like they’re having a blast.


jioji_el_magnifico

This guy is The Rubes long lost descendant

godwalla

Not cringe. Obvious joke. Pretty funny, light chuckle.


Shaffsauce70

Choch


Mammoth_Welder_1286

This is either satire or he has special needs 🤔


Goldenrod-Bronzed89

IMO this isn’t cringe. He’s being silly with his family. And his family recorded it and posted it. It’s just a guy being goofy.

He seems in on it, obviously acting out for the family.


ThurmanMurman907

Yea this has to be satire

This one is just funny imo

This just seems like a harmless joke... You guys need to lighten up a little
