To kick off my KZhead channel I called my friends at Wichita, Kansas Fire Department and set up a couple ride alongs. The first was a 24-hour shift with Rescue Company 1 on the southeast side of the city. We responded to more calls than I could include in this video, which gives you a behind the scenes look at life inside the WFD.

  • You can tell Isaac is not camera shy and has practiced to do a walk around on his truck because he flies right through it and doesn't stutter as some firefighters do when doing walk arounds. Isaac also has amazing energy and an encouraging smile especially with that sweet moustache.

Surge blew up a light switch, lots of our electronics were fried and some hosing for our natural gas got spiderwebbed by the strike. No fires but house smelled very much like something was burning and good thing we found the gas line very quickly to replace. They were so awesome and thorough! Appreciate our WFD! TOP NOTCH!

    • @@JollyGreenGiant94 As a taxpayer in SMFR's district, I'd never question the mill rate or vote against an increase on it (unlike some of the other rather mismanaged public agencies that want more money to waste every ballot). Hell they probably realize that is a benefit of what Eric does for them. Showing the public the value in the department beyond the obvious. Seriously it makes you proud driving by the stations and seeing the investment in the community. Giving them the funding they need just makes sense when you see how well they operate.
