Day in the Life of an SCDF Firefighter

[@starshar]

My 3yo son loves fire trucks & firemen. We would camp outside fire station to wait for a fire truck being dispatched. Thank you SCDF for always making the time to wave to my child. You never know how a simple gesture can make his day.

We seriously need more of this where we get to see the different lives of a life saving professional who works round the clock 24/7 ready to save our lives or protect us . Thank you our paramedics and firefighters for ur hard work! 致敬!( doctors, nurses , SCDF , Police officers ,military etc )

I have been in the fire service 36 years (now retired) and always knew it was what I wanted to do as a kid growing up. I followed my dream and have no regrets. This is a very video of the life of a fire station. I imagine all over the world there are some differences like the type of shifts and so forth but this video prettry much shows it all. Thank Fire & Rescue Officer. Nice job.

[@phipsd8388]

It is super Interesting to watch this as a German firefighter. Thank you for your service and for this video

[@Jnightingale_]

Amazing production. Love such example to show how our firefighters and other SCDF personnels are working hard for our nation and keeping Singaporeans' lives and properties safe. Kudos to all SCDF personnels regular and NSFs.

[@hi-fs9me]

Can you guys do more videos about the calls and the driving would really love to see them driving to the scene also try and do a life in a job of a EMS

[@sully5491]

hi you can see SCDF vehicles turnout for calls by searching up SCDF Stn 33 Emergency Responses on KZbin. :D

[@addictedwong]

Next up is the ems side. There is so much things going on in ems side so hopefully we can see the day in the life of a ems crew

[@missysfx]

I can't stop staring at how smooth his skin is.anyways thank u for ur service.i've watched quite a few videos of firefighters at work but mostly in s.korea and America but I seldom come across one from my own country, or maybe there are but somehow it just doesn't get recommended on my feed.so it's great to watch this

[@therealshard]

Yooooo this was so well made. Good job y'all!!! And thank you to each and every person, in all the services and in all their capacities, for keeping us safe

[@buakiri]

Regardless what uniform you wearing, serving the public means taking the sh*t from every direction and still maintain your composure.

Kudos to all the emergency services team be it the firemen or paramedics for looking out for us 24/7 and 365days. 👏🏻👏🏻

[@yanumicarey2005]

Miss that place. Every time when I’m sending documents, got to see them running to their trucks to attend to the calls. Although was working in the admin department, to see them risking their life to save others is such an honour. More videos please….. 😇🙏🏻

[@almerindaromeira8352]

Very interesting. In Hamburg, Germany the professional firefighters have 2 minutes to leave the station but only 5 to reach the occurrence. The volunteers have 5 minutes to get to the station and deploy and should be on the occurrence 8 minutes after the phone call.

[@Mike-be2zf]

Awesome video. Very cool to see how the job is done in a country so far away (Work in Maryland, USA) Be safe!

[@andrewkoey4020]

Given only 1 minute to leave the fire station during an emergency. That lift at 6:24 must have incredibly fast response time as well? I thought all firefighters use a slide pole to move from upper floors to the fire trucks?

[@bananajoe1882]

Just depends on the station, they are useful and cool but not always necessary

[@almerindaromeira8352]

Fire poles from the 3rd or 4th floor might be a bit dangerous.

[@timderks5960]

@@almerindaromeira8352 And that's why you do alternating poles. You go from floor 3 to 2 on one pole, then cross the hallway to the next pole that goes from 2 to 1, etc. That even helps with throughput, since you don't ever want more than 1 person on a pole. Making them shorter means that there's less wait time.

[@adamsmasher9738]

We weren't allowed to use the slide cuz too many fireman were getting injured rushing down with it

[@andrewkoey4020]

@@adamsmasher9738 maybe fire stations should take inspiration from GOOGLE offices and install a steel slide (only slide one floor level at a time) instead of a pole. That would be quite fun for kids visiting the fire station too.

[@Halxzz]

[@asyranaqid644]

Thank you for your service!

[@timderks5960]

A couple of questions: 1. What happens if you get a call in the morning while you're doing something like checking the hoses? Packing everything back up would take something like 5 minutes, maybe even more I imagine, so are you not available during such checks? How does that work? 2. You say you have to leave the station within 1 minute when a call comes in, but how are you ever supposed to make that if you're doing anything at all? The elevator ride alone takes 20 to 30 seconds I imagine, then there's getting dressed, getting everybody in the truck, and some small things, and your minute is gone. If you're on the toilet, you don't even have time to wipe. Do you really always manage to leave within a minute, or is that just one of those goals set by somebody who never actually was a firefighter? 3. What's your opinion on your station? It feels very closed off to me, and it doesn't really seem to be designed to allow quick access to the vehicles. Do you think the station could've been designed to be more efficient?

I think what firefighters in singapore are lacking is the annual thirst trap calendar

Watching from California, this was so interesting. Especially a fire fighter taking the bus to the station! Do you guys have fire fighter paramedics or is it just fire fighters and paramedics?

[@Hamood-rc7md]

It’s mainly ff parameds

[@yoominbi]

In SG, unlike in USA where firefighters also have to attend to almost all medical, our firefighters are mostly fire train only and all medical emergencies will be handled by our trained paramedics by the ambulance. However, in each ROTA, there's a handful of firefighters that's both fire and medic trained for faster response, deployed on the fire bike. On that note, if a Fire Engine is nearby vicinity of a medical incident as compared to the ambulance, they will respond to the medical call first. Also fun fact, unlike USA where the firefighters have to do height rescue (eg. abseiling), SCDF has a special unit called DART (Disaster And Rescue Team) to do any height or dangerous rescue which it's staffs are attached to certain Fire Stations across SG.

[@himanshusharma-nx1cv]

Why no sliding pole? It’s faster and more reliable compared to lift

[@EnviroMation]

Used to have, i love to slide down. But, due to personnel safety, the sliding pole cant use.
