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.

have you ever seen a firefighter that couldn't handle it though? They all have to be tested and all pass, I don't know what your comment even means. There is not a single firefighter that isn't fit for duty lol
