The second I saw it was a white helmet, I was like "oh sh!t the chief lost his helmet" and then instantly realized he doesn't need it.. it's not like he's going inside until he absolutely needs to
The shield on the lid was white....not gold. I'm leaning on that it belonged to an officer on the rig and not a Chief. Looking at this department...ill say the chief has his own vehicle.
I had this happen with a shirt and badge. Watched it fly off the back of the truck. My father was a lifetime fireman. He said I saved that guy tons of grief that would have happened from loosing his badge.
Dude you rock. Ex firefighter here. This video made my day. Having a citizen return gear that fell off is awesome. You think something is secure or you reach for something and it falls off the engine and your gut just bottoms out. You think oh no, I don’t have it anymore, it’s destroyed or even worse. Thank you for returning the helmet. That firefighter owes you a big thanks, a gallon of ice cream or a coffee at least. You know his two co-workers are going to razz him or her for loosing the helmet. Thank you and be safe on your motorcycle!
In addition, parts of personal equipment - especially helmets, which have already protected you from falling parts - are a kind of good luck charm. Whoever dropped this helmet will be more than appreciative of getting it back. I can well imagine that such a helmet would quickly have ended up as a souvenir in the hands of another person. Thank you bikers and thank you for your service to all firefighters.
My helmet flew off of T6 (SFFD) I was tillering on the way to a box. We couldn’t find it when we came back later. It was missing for over a year until it was returned to St 3 . Wore it for the rest of my 32 year career.
Reminds me of years ago. A fire truck was responding to a call. At that time firemen still rode the trucks standing on a rear step. When this truck went through the humped intersection it sent both men into the air. They didn't lose their grip but one of them lost both his boots. I snagged them and followed the truck. When we arrived at the call I handed his boots back. He was very appreciative.😊
Thank you! 31 years in the fire service and when this happens not every engine company is this lucky to have great people like you take the time and return the helmet.
As a mechanic that’s left my expensive tools in vehicles more than a few times, whenever someone returns them to me, I feel so thankful. You guys are great.
In my book some pictures of the helmet, wherit wasfound and of the helmet in general would be the souveneer not a piece of Turnout Gear. Former fire Explorerand son of a former fireman my self I would have retunred the helmet to the nearest fire or pd station I could find if I did not know what station to take it too. Even if the fs I find is a differant department I would ask them to return it for me or give me directions on where to return it to.
Morale at the firehouse from poking fun at the Chief is about to be through the roof! The smirks on their faces when they were handed the helmet is priceless.🤣
One day as I was just entering the freeway I see a truck in front of me and I can see a cane on the bumper... As the truck started to pick up speed, the cane finally fell off... I pulled over on my motorcycle grabbed the cane, caught up to the old guy and started swinging it near his window to get his attention LMAO... He rolled his window down laughing, grabbed his cane and yelled. Thank you! 🎉
Hello Mr. Smith, as a firefighter that is one piece of equipment that we cherish the most because when we retire, it comes with us and is hung on a wall with stories to tell. So I can assure you that the firefighter was deeply thankful that you dropped it off.
Thank you for your comment. I didn’t think about it from that perspective. When we saw the helmet on the ground, we just thought about how important it was for a firefighter to have that piece of safety equipment. I didn’t think about what it symbolize for them. I’m very happy we saw it and were able to return it. I forgot we had the video until I got home and was reviewing the footage. I had no idea it would get this much attention on CZcams. I almost removed the video because I didn’t want that fireman to feel bad about the internet seeing the incident. But after I saw all the heart felt comments I decided to leave it up thinking the world could benefit seeing more good acts of kindness these days. At no point do my wife and I feel we need to be acknowledge for this, just sharing something interesting we witnessed.
This reminds me of a time a fireman's boot tell off their truck, I picked it up and pedaled towards the way they were headed,about 12 city blocks . When I got there ,they were already heading back to the firehall,which was from 38st to 65st . I pedaled all the way to the firehall and gave them their boot. They gave me candy and let me sit in the firetruck until the police came ,then they put my bike in the trunk of the cop car and gave me a ride home and told my parents, this happened in approximately 1968/69 I wasn't even 10yet but will never forget.🙏 All that keep us safe.
That was really nice for them to request a officer to give you a lift home like that after you got the boots back to the station. :) Good job to you as being a good kid and getting the boots to the station in the first place. :) ... Aww the good ole days of being a "free roam kid" where it kids could bike as far as they wanted as long as they where home for dinner and or by the time the street lights come on..
That was them salivating at the thought of getting to make the chief sweat about losing his helmet. They're already planning how to maximize the embarrassment.
We lost one going to a call one day and the guy wouldn’t give it back. I had to pay him $300 to get the helmet back. A leather helmet is worth anywhere from $1,000- $2,000 dollars. Thank you guys for doing a selfless act and being a stand up citizen
Like, the guy whose house you responded to? That’s insane and surely a crime to hold someone’s equipment hostage like that. Bad karma for sure, maybe next time he needs emergency services his call won’t go through. 😂
Awesome I found a fireman jacket on the off ramp one day and returned it to the station they told me the guy would want to be in touch with me to thank me for returning it he did with a case of my favorite frosty beverage lol I guess according to him that jacket was worth thousands who knew
@@timcarroll6795good thought but all departments have different colors. I also know someone like you was going to make a comment like this so I looked up the departments social media and went through photos until I found one that clearly showed the shield on the front of a white helmet and it had "Captain" on it. It was taken during a promotion ceremony.
@@jt1364 It's absolutely a department thing. Just in my county alone, my department has red for drivers, another dept has red for firefighters, and another is red for captains. Totally dependent on the department. There are certainly trends across the us, even regionally, but there's no strict rules for helmet color. Depends on department SOPs. (Although it seems for the most part, a majority of departments utilize white for Chiefs)
I'm a career FF, I've seen helmets do this and get returned or found, I once did an inspection and saw a neighboring towns helmet on the persons wall and asked them about it, they said they drove over it and it was stuck in the wheel well (it did have the brim ground down flat) We took it and returned it, it was a leather helmet and the guy was on the hook for it. I've seen radios get lost and returned too but not the last nice Motorola APX one, someone has that in their man cave or sold it, we looked for it for about 1 mile of roadway up to a highway onramp.
Going out on a garage fire, turned a corner, and watched my helmet slide off the engine cover to the street. Landed almost perfectly on the double yellow line. Driver loaned me his lid so I could do "my thing". Retrieved mine when we got back to the station.
I chase a fire truck all the way to a fire with somebody's turnout gear once. It fell off the tailgate right in front of me. When they stopped, some young guy ran back to me and said: "Thanks!"
I left my helmet on the back step once,it fell off and some civilian returned it to the firehouse in the Bronx! The guys on duty gave him a nice tip on my behalf!
Dude, awesome of you two to return that helmet! Most would have driven by without a second thought or worse, taken it. Losing gear can be hell for us in the fire service (I volunteer myself), and unfortunately it happens due to simple mistakes, so any time someone is able to return a tool or gear its always a great. Ride safe guys!
Nice. Something simmelar happened many years ago with us . I'm a police officer in South Africa. We wore patrolling when suddenly we hurd an elderly laysd voice on the police radio. She wanted to know who we wore. Our radio controle operator (you know it in usa as despatch) asked they lady who she is becouse this is a police radio channel and how she got on it. She sead she picked up the "walky talky" the radio on the street. And then gave location. Turns out the one vechale did a complaint there a few min ago and the radio fell out the car. So they heard it turned around and went back there to pick it up. 😂 the conversation the lady had with the police that day on the rade was priceless..
Notice how they didn't interrogate them? Notice how they didn't demand their identification card? They said the two words that no cop would ever say,. Thank You.
White helmet... that's an officer's helmet. Someone's getting their ba!!s busted when they get back. Quick story, one of our guys lost his helmet and somehow it got caught under another vehicle and dragged down the road leaving a freakishly clean flat spot right on top. It ground down about an inch, and another one of our guys, who is an amateur photographer, took a pic of it and posted it to Facebook with a funny caption: "this is what happens when you don't duck as you're putting a patient in the back of a helicopter". It went viral locally, and someone in the community flipped out and called the FAA... Needless to say, there were write ups and new SOP's out a few days later...
I did the same thing years back, I lived at t trailer park and on the side of the private drive was a helmet and turnout jacket. I took it the first firehouse i knew in town since there were two. got same reaction with the guys saying they were going fun with the capt first.
I Have Done A Lot Of Work On This Station . It Is One Of There Older Stations ; They Are Building A New Station For Them 8 - ) Awesome Job Guys You are Hero's Too .
My mom's former EMS if you lose your radio your helmet or any crucial piece of equipment you're in trouble and you'll get hazed by the crew/team The station house will definitely be milking this one for the next five to six years or until somebody else loses something or does something stupid😂😂😂 oh just a heads up for everybody do not give a firefighter or EMS a flashlight you be making a unscheduled donation to the fire department😂
Excellent job ! Must be a Navy Submarine Veteran and his wife on that bike! Can only imagine the consequences…LOL! Washing the truck all by himself….. Thumbs up Dwayne & Judy!
Good stuff. That’s the kind of citizenship that makes places great. Please get your friend to wear gloves before a simple spill cripples her hands. In my biking I’ve damaged many gloves but rarely scraped a helmet. I think ankle covering boots are also a priority, it’s one joint they can’t repair if it’s been scraped down the road. Sorry to be so miserable but it’s a decade as a road traffic accident paramedic speaking.
I found a brass quick connect for the hose once while I was in Maine.. Drove to the nearest station and gave it to one of the fire fighters.. He started to tell me about how expensive they are.. I just looked at him and said, Yeah, I know.. I'm a retired fire fighter..😂😂
This firefighter thinks that since whoever has that numbered shield, that CAN be read on CZcams, that individual has passed over the cookies/drinks for local TV and gone to the catering dinner for the house for the international exposure. 🤣
Those firefighters are going to be milking this for years! Hey Captain remember the time you couldn't find your helmet?
Yeah. No. You are so wrong.
“Hey Chief, remember the time…?”
That was a white helmet. LOL
The second I saw it was a white helmet, I was like "oh sh!t the chief lost his helmet" and then instantly realized he doesn't need it.. it's not like he's going inside until he absolutely needs to
Instant ear to ear smile on both their faces. They're loving it. 😂
looked like a chiefs helmet lol
Looks like the Chief will be buying pies and gallons ice cream for the engine company for the entire month.
You missed your chance to leave it on that dog statue for when they got back tho!
I was thinking the same thing.
Darn it, I was going to say that.
Me too 😂
Good thinking.
Perfect! 😂
And that was the Chiefs helmet, too!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 - spoken as a past Chief
Yup, the crew will NEVER let him forget that one.
Not always. Some departments may have white as the color for an LT helmet.
@@johnarat9618Still someone who would usually be giving the lecture about losing gear.

That wasn't a firefighters helmet
That was a fire chiefs helmet
Not ice cream something else cold!

Leather helmets cost about $2K to replace, and composites are about a quarter of that, so thanks for taking the time to return it.
That's more than I thought.

Very nice of you. I'm kinda shocked no one pulls over when the firetruck is running lights and siren.

At least you stopped for the helmet.

That feels pretty good.
I noticed everyone still driving. Your supposed to pull to the right and stop until they go by
Typical motorcyclist 🙄
Them two foreman going to be up to no good.
Definitely woulda kept that not gonna lie. They will prob replace it anyways after taking such a fall of the truck.
Well done sir. Chief will be humbled lol.

yes, caught my attention also
Nobody's mentioning the fact that no one stopped for the siren. Not even the guy who picked up the helmet.... That is extremely lame.

Sadly, as it's bounced down the road i wonder if its technically a write off? I would still have done the same, tho. Top job.
