    Use this topic to discuss the most bizarre calls you've been to or heard about from one of your friends that were there. We already heard one from Burke and one from me, Do you have any?

    Yes, I'm only thirteen. But when I was younger, I responded to a report of a small fire with my dad. This man carried a burning heater out of his mobile home and set it in the dirt outside. My dad's best friend put it out with some baking soda, no big deal. The man never got burned or anything, I don't think. The funniest part of it was seeing all of the firefighters sitting around it like a little camp fire.

    ummm...when I rode with a vollie engine, I got called to the workplaces of both my mom and my dad. My mom works at a school and the popcorn machine burnt up, and my dad works in a lumber mill, and their wood chip pile caught fire. Both times we got canceled before even getting there, but both times I got scared so shitless, I was the first guy in the truck, with all my stuff on and strapped into my BA before anyone else was even moving toward the truck.

    my very first fire call I almost totaled my car getting to it coming over the hill down into my town you could see the fire it looked like the entire block was on fire it was 2 and a half houses the adrenalin rush was nuts i came down the hill doing about 110mph and it was icy and a sharp turn I barely slowed down enough to make the turn and when I got to the station I forgot to shut my lights off and threw my keys as I was getting to my gear i spent an hr finding them later only to find out I needed to jump my car haha

    Theres this one lady down the road from us that calls 911 all the time becuase she thinks she keeps having heart attacks and strokes. So, the fire department is going there all the time and just sitting wondering what to do. Because, shes perfectly fine!

    We had one old lady, called every other day for stupid shit, then she passed away. I was at the firehouse once, some how the front door was open! My dad was in the office and these two people came in, they said there was a lady in her car in the front in need of assistance, I got my dad and we rushed out, it was her, couldn't breath and her Oxygen needed to be re-filled. I helped and we went back inside...
