Live Fire Drills!
My brother is seventeen years old and is enrolled in the Fire Science Class at Fort Osage Career and Technology Center! What the class is for is to teach these kids everything about being an Fireman and an EMT. It is pretty much all of the classes that people pay thousands of dollars to take to become certified, but for free! A few weeks ago they were having their first live fire drills, the teacher and the real firemen come and they set fires and the kids in the class get to learn how to put them out! they had a car fire, a house fire, a dumpster fire, chemical fire (propane mostly), and just a general outside fire! I was invited by the class to go take all kinds of interesting photos for them! I had so much fun! Here are some of my favorites:First fire of the day...The Car Fire:
Being Lit...
Being Put Out:
The image is a bit distorted, the firemen had me literally standing feet from the fire so the heat kind of distorts it a bit!
My brother...preparing to go inside!
Third fire of the day...the general outside fire:
Gathering more hoses for next fire...
Forth fire of the day...A Chemical Fire (mostly propane):
Fifth fire of the day...A Dumpster Fire:
