THIS is exactly why I love America!

And another reason why I will try everything in my power to not let it become corrupt. These guys should be the example of everything America should be.

Imagine scaring yourself for life! I hope America understands that these guys got burned for the REST OF THEIR LIFE to save these people, this is heroic.

The videos are great to see, but iLoqin's comments still make him look/sound like a douche trough... I think that's pretty much inevitable.

On a side note...video is about 5 minutes long...and no firefighters show up.
Not baggin' on the FF, as they can't be verywhere.

Also, every *** hole that was just standing around doing nothing should be cited for general stupidity.

I believe the two people that were jumping into and grabbing the kids were brothers, and also off-duty firefighters

damn. and that is the reason why i bring my rescue tool with me everywhere i go. i was off duty and came across a slightly submerged vehicle which drove into a ravine a month ago. good stuff. im surprised at the response time of the fire department also but i have a feeling its from a delayed initiation of the emergency system itself.
