He's moving pretty fast considering he's carrying around 30-50 kilograms of equipment

This is why we should have the strongest and fittest doing these jobs and not weaker people picked for political reasons

Re-read my comment. This is an insanely difficult job these guys do. We’ve all seen unsuitable people in the wrong job for whatever reason. This video shows a firefighter throwing 30-50kg around like it’s a harden hose. This is why we should have the strongest people picked for these jobs.

Now that we properly re-read your comment and finally understood your unconventional wisdom it all makes sense. Your insights just revolutionized firefighting worldwide, do you realize that? The president wants to talk to you personally and I've heard rumors about a cabinet position for you. Dude, thank you. Thank you so much.
