  1. God knows, after what and who the firefighters of New York lost in 2001, this is a demonstration of what extraordinary things they can do when they are not faced with terrorists out for murder.

  2. WOW! What a job! What major teamwork! As if they were all born to be lifesavers! So yeah, "incredible" is an understatement. Talk about a mentally, morally, physically, tough, tenacious bunch of men! OK I'm just going to say it because sometimes you need to smile a huge smile of relief after such stress, but it certainly gives new meaning to smokin hot! That's it, it's almost calendar season! Support your local NYC Firefighters! The best! Way cool stuff to see in action!

  3. Actually, they train for this constantly. I'm stepping out on this and saying this is a normal save when the time comes to perform at their best. I'm sure you'll find most career professional firefighters more than willing and able to do such life savings rescues. Good job.

  5. Another e-bike battery apartment fire but was this a CUSTOM E-VEHICLE OR A FACTORY STORE MODEL? THESE ARE THINGS THE PUBLIC NEEDS TO KNOW SO WE CAN HOLD THE MANUFACTURER OR VEHICLE OWNER RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FIRE. E-VEHICLE STORE OWNERS SHOULD BE PUT ON NOTICE AND CHARGING STATIONS SHOULD BE MADE OUTSIDE AND AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC SO NO INDOOR CHARGING CAN TAKE PLACE FOR SAFETY AND HEALTH CONCERNS. HOW ARE PEOPLE LIVING IN PUBLIC HOUSING AFFORDING VEHICLES THAT ARS 2000.00 AND UP BUT CAN'T AFFORD UTILITIES, RENT, OR FOOD AS THAT'S A PUBLIC HOUSING BUILDING FOR LOW-INCOME RESIDENTS WHO ARE ON WELFARE/ PUBLIC ASSISTANCE?…..
