I see a nice money maker. Paid admission, sell raffle tickets where the lucky winner gets to push the button - $$$$$$

A town near here did that a few years ago when they demolished a bridge.

Lol that would be awesome to see in person. Sorta of like on Mythbusters at the end where they take it too the extreme.

I have seen this clip several times over the past year and can only wonder how ignorant these firemen are to not know that the fumes are more dangerous that the liquid itself. I am glad they aren't trying to put out a fire at my house, they might try to smother it with napalm.

Dave, for firemen you'd expect more. That was good since the worse that got hurt was a broken leg.

 

[Russianwolf]

Well, the tree is DOWN, and they didn't have to worry about falling out of it. :biggrin:

 

[cnirenberg]

I wonder if they want to go fishing?

The tree was semi funny, I've seen my Grand dad clear some land that way, But those Firemen were just plain Stupid, I'm glad none was seriously hurt, just remember what I found out the hard way when I cut off my fingers "Stupidity is it's own reward"
