In Japan, when the risk of death is high, its standard procedure to send in an older professional. They do this with many things, such as radiation, and yes, even with large structure fires. Because the thought process is that older people have lived their lives, and the young still have so much more to offer for their community.
@@vanshverma2112 you believe its messed up but in actuality this is practical and Japanese have a honor thing. That is their culture and the people there are aware of what it will cost. That's not something they could hide and honestly most would have done it regardless. Some times older people in professions where you you dont live long are far scarier than someone younger.
What are you talking about? Vertical ventilation is still very much in use Nation wide. It is an integral part of commercial and residential firefighting
I mean....they still do rooftop "operations" they just have different procedures, and even then this is a TV Show.....there's already a lot going wrong even before he set foot on that roof ya know?
@freedom_rider6976 oh yeah no definitely, this show is a garbage representation of anything FD related, normally I don't comment on anything but this clip got me heated so I went to the comments and noticed ops IAFF profile pic, and that's why I commented :) although I get why op thinks that, being so close to Detroit they would prefer if every structure just burnt down
@@GamersW3lcomeCompletely incorrect statement, this show is actually pretty accurate to day to day firefighting operations in america. Same with "the pookie " being a police show
Lost my cousin few years ago when he went up on a commercial roof to look for hot spots. Some smooth brained knuckle dragger painted over a skylight and there weren't any safety stanchions. He stepped on it and fell through in full kit to the concrete floor below. Survived the fall, broke a few bones, had a couple surgeries, downgraded from ICU to general room, went home, and randomly died of an aneurysm in his easy chair few days into recovery. RIP Johnnie!
I'm sorry for your loss. Yet I loved the smooth brained knuckle dragger comment BC thats exactly who would do something so stupid as to paint a skylight and not mark it.
Show: Station 19 Character: Captain (retired) Pruitt Herrera formally of 19 Episode: season 3 episode 12 Basic run down: he built the firehouse 19 from the ground up hand picking the crew to become a family, he retired from duty because of a cancer diagnosis (he has three months to live at this point in the series). His crew which includes his daughter and her husband the battalion chief are stuck inside the maze like building with no way out and running out of oxygen. He vents the roof to save his family dying in the process
It was an indoor storage facility and, as you said, it was a maze. They couldn't find their way out because of the smoke, they couldn't see. Him venting the roof cleared the smoke so they could see to find their way out.
I remember when my mother was watching this episode, and I couldn't help but watch the scene when he fell. The song they chose for it didn't help with how heartbreaking it was to watch.
Cap is doing what other seniors should be if we have a draft !!! Go and fight cause we have lived a long life and it's our turn to make sure young people get to grow old also !!!
Sooo hoisting up heavy shit and dropping it just wasnt an idea? If a small old guy can cave in the roof dropping some equipment twice his weight sould have worked. Former firefighter here we dont do this dumbshit
Brave but stupid. All he did was give the fire more oxygen to burn even more ... 40 years he should know that, I think he just wanted to die with his daughter (Idk if they died or not)
This is a method called venting, it allows the toxic smoke to escape from the room the fire has taken over and means that the smoke is decreased in other rooms, it also means you can attack the fire with an aerial appliance.

Brother! That’s messed upp brooooo
@@vanshverma2112the elderly in Fukushima did this when the reactor was damaged after the tsunami hit it.

Well, not quite. The logic in Fukushima was that by the time they develop cancer, they may be on death's door either way.
What he did any dad would have done same for their kid! And yes I know it's a show.
Well it's Vented now....and that's Ladies & Gentlemen why the rest of the country don't send crews on roof operations anymore.

They both knew exactly what was going to happen to him.
And he fully accepted it.
And imo it's.. kinda dumb. I understand why but he should've let other members to take care of it if he knows about his own condition.

So sorry for your loss.
Firefighters are a different breed.

Show: Station 19
Character: Captain (retired) Pruitt Herrera formally of 19
Episode: season 3 episode 12
Basic run down: he built the firehouse 19 from the ground up hand picking the crew to become a family, he retired from duty because of a cancer diagnosis (he has three months to live at this point in the series). His crew which includes his daughter and her husband the battalion chief are stuck inside the maze like building with no way out and running out of oxygen.

I know this is a movie... But that is heroic.
Firefighters do deserves respect from all of us
It's a series, and no, it wasn't heroic, there were other procedures he could have done, she should have stopped him.
Another brave soul for the Valkyries
Better to go out a hero than wheezing on a ventilator and throbbing on a heart machine.
Did he die a hero? That was just a suicide with extra steps, he only left a coleage with the regret that she should have stopped him
I remember when my mother was watching this episode, and I couldn't help but watch the scene when he fell. The song they chose for it didn't help with how heartbreaking it was to watch.
And this is why Cops and Firefighters can retire at 50.
in some situations even early, depends also on injury's they got during their jobs.
If I was her and was in that situation the last words I would say would be this, "enjoy the fall and the afterlife my El capitan".
in Valhalla welcomes another brave warrior in to there ranks
Another soul will find his way to the halls of our fathers... in Valhalla.
May angels sing thee to thy rest...

If you absolutely HAD to go on the roof, would you hook a harness to the ladder?
Yeah a cinder block would have a poked a hole

“Retird” ?
Yes he retired due to his cancer diagnosis. His daughter was out of air along with the rest of the company.
Stupid beyond. Lol. They really think people do this. So Hollywood.
they did until it was banned for doing it, for understanding atleast because of high death rate of firefighters
That’s a order from your dead captain
