:?

just go absoloutely crank and set up cameras everywhere around the station so that when the pager goes off it trips a circuit that turns them all on... could be good fun.

reminds me of the videos burnside produced a while ago, they were pretty good

Well speaking of videos I just came across the Morphett Vale CFS Website - which has a copy of their latest video on it. I have seen a DVD before which had three of their videos, from memory they ran about 15 minutes each and were a mix of fires and funny stuff.

This latest video is more of a slideshow of pictures with some video thrown in the middle to music, the file is big but if you have broadband it only takes a few minutes to download. All in all a very professional production - good work Morphett Vale.

Is anyone else out there doing anything similar.
Crankster on scene, you can take a stop...

Glad to hear you guys liked the video, the previous ones were an actual video that ran about 15 mins each. As Crankster pointed out, they had some fire vision and some funny stuff in them.

If you are ever down our way call into our station and have a look.

I reckon that show is rubbish... But i saw a show on A1 channel the other day about the Williams family in Texas who own their own fire service that respond to large chemical/flammable liquid fires, they have some amazing equipment and training facilities for their company.

Mind you, I watched that show on free to air TV over a decade ago. Yeah its a bit dodgy by todays standards, but eh.
