Maybe it was the fact it was Christmas Eve but I never had a car accident touch me so much. It super charged me to become not only a better firefighter but a better person. To be better I must become stronger and fitter. This is why I lift.

You're a good guy user
so you have no life?
Also FF/EMT, what a good experience to have. Well done user.
Complete bullshit, you'd never just casually start moving victims like thay because their necks might've suffered damage, and especially wouldn't assign a random dude in a shock to to do it
t. actual firefighter
too bad no one died, that would've been cool to see a dead body
fuck off
They got out of the car faggot if you didn’t read the story correctly. When I walked up to the car they moved their heads and turned their heads towards me when they saw me which ruled out any cervical spinal injury. Also I use to work for that department and was good friends with all the guys.

Nice larp though, I'm sure you'll make it one day and your powerfantasy will become reality
>he is still in basic school
If they can walk they are fine, not everyone needs to be extricated and backboarded ricky rescue, OP did it perfectly fine.
Why were you dressed as Santa?
Like I said coming from a Christmas party
>bragging about good deeds on a mongolian foreskin-snipping forum
cringe. also, did you just start lifting today or what? this shit only hapened two days ago
is it difficult staying Jow Forums while on the job? how is the stress
hmmm the fact that it was a guy dressed as santa sounds less credible
woah you carried two infants from one car to another teach me your ways
We have a weight room in the station and we train all the time, depends on how the guys at the station eat if they eat junk or healthy. I usually pack my stuff.
my joints hurt if I lift, they hurt more if I don’t lift
user, people like you, and my brother who is in ARFF inspire me to be better. godspeed
Based EMT Santa, proud of you for making it brah
