If you were a firefighter and you get all the people out, but the last person says you have to go back and save their pet, would you?

[DizzyDesii]

Im watching my show and there's a huge fire and the guy says “You have to go back for Gladys”. So my guy runs back in for the cat and comes out. The dude is like “thats not Gladys”. Lmao turns out Gladys is his wife who is sadly deaf so she can't hear her name being called out but the cat jumped into his arms as if that was his fckin name because he doesn't wanna die either 😭💀 #FeelFreeToList #iAintBoutDatLife

+1 y

The man on the show didn't give a damn about that cat 😂 He said THATS NOT MY GLADYS 😭🤣

[TallAnon]

Depends on the fire. If it's too bad, you have to give things up sometimes.

!! Don't read the following if you don't want the mood ruined!! My dad was involved in a car accident as a third party and rescued a kid and a mother out of a burning car. Unfortunately there was also a baby in the car. He went back, but the baby was stuck. He kept trying to get the baby out until his arms were burned and he's never had eyebrows since, but unfortunately he couldn't get the baby loose. The mother reacted as you would expect, blaming my dad for the baby's death. He says he never forgot the screams.
Sometimes there's nothing you can do.

[DizzyDesii]

I would be hurt but that wasn't even your dads kid to save. So the fact he suffered burns and all of that and saved 2 people, the woman shouldve been grateful. She should blame herself before anyone else because her kids are sadly her responsibility, accident or not

[TallAnon]

Realistically, yes. But after you see a child burn to death before you, while the mother is begging you to do something.. That's hard to rationalize. It's over 20 years ago now, so he knows, but that's not something that will stop tormenting you.

[DizzyDesii]

I love kids dearly so i def understand the pain but i just couldnt blame myself for that long if i tried everything i could

[TallAnon]

I just hope never to be in that position 🙂

[ohsheeT]

In a fire everything happens split moment you have to know what's happening and what's going to happen at all moments in time first of all that dog would already been outside LOL if there was opportunity doors open what have you but nobody can answer this I can't answer this question because I don't know how much time is left I would want to go in there and get the pet but that doesn't mean that I would

[jennifer_bloom]

I think in real life, fire fighters would get fired if they prized the life of an animal over their own, it might sound romantic, but it’s not the practical option, and even low risk ventures are dangerous because all fires are dangerous if it requires fire fighter help.

[DizzyDesii]

Lmao you're prob right

[_deeznuts]

oml I feel so mean laughing😭😭 is the wife okay?

If it was a kid, I'd save the kid regardless of the pet. If it was a little pet like a bird or a fish im sorry but bye. Like I'm gonna save a cat or a dog, but y'all only live like four years.

[DizzyDesii]

Lmao i said the exact same thing 😂 And hea they went back and rescued the wife

[_deeznuts]

alr thats good😭

[_deeznuts]

@update bro just wants his wife back😭

[DizzyDesii]

It was sad cause she couldnt hear her name being screamed

[_deeznuts]

yeah that part is terrible:(

[Anonymous]

The firefighter's life counts too; if I was one and had to make a judgement call I'd probably not, unless the fire isn't severe or we've got it under control.

Pets are usually the first to try to leave in my mind, unless they're trapped or staying with their owner.

[DizzyDesii]

Right on

[Sour-rose]

:)... you take yo pet... and stfu, sir.

He betta take his pet and be happy he has SOMEONE.

[DizzyDesii]

😭😭😭😭😂

[Avicenna]

Firefighters have training and guidelines for dealing with these situations. My guess is that only if in the judgment of the firefighter or the site commander that the situation did not present a risk to the firefighter's life, e. g., the structural integrity of the building is gone, and the location of the pet is known. Otherwise, no. The life of the pet is not as important as human life.

[DizzyDesii]

Yea the location of the pet wasn't known

[Avicenna]

In that case, the firefighter's life and safety should not have been risked. Note also that other firefighters may have been put at risk to rescue the firefighter should they have run into trouble looking for a pet whose location is unknown.

[DizzyDesii]

I agree

[Loveisgirthy]

Ha! That sucks. What show? I'd definitely need more info. But if it really was a pet then sure I'd think this traumatic experience in that person's life needs their beloved pet out of all this if at all possible. I think as a firefighter you put those things first.

[DizzyDesii]

Fox 911

[Loveisgirthy]

Thanks

[ShadezMcgee]

I would, yes. If the animal gets trapped and is too scared to move, I am helping it. Doesn't matter if it is a dog, cat, bird, fish, etc. Going to get the pet out instead of letting it suffer via smoke inhalation or burning alive.

[DizzyDesii]

Such a soldier 💪

[20yearsolder]

You have to assess the situation, if you think you can get it done without endangering your life then yes as much as we love our pets, it's not worth dying over attempting to save someone's pet

[DizzyDesii]

Yea in this case it wasn't worth it

[TheSpaceGnome]

I'd save the pet first, as well as any babies, because either will panic and not stay still or cover its mouth. So it's at the highest risk of being the first death from the fire (should any occur).

[DizzyDesii]

🙈🙈

[melanieeeB]

Honestly no, I would only run back in for the people/pets that I care for or when I for sure knew it wouldn't be to dangerous to go in again but I ain't risking my life for strangers

[DizzyDesii]

That you care for lmao

[NathanDavis]

they would not have to tell me to do it

I would absolutely and definitely do it... and I might the pet first than the people, lmao

[DizzyDesii]

💀💀💀

[NathanDavis]

pets are better than most people... lol

[YollyM]

If the fire isn't big enough to swallow me whole I would go back for the pet. However if the fire got big , I wouldn't go back.
I'm not about to lie for clout.

[DizzyDesii]

Lmao i think half below are being honest because they care that much for animals lol. Ima have to pass tho

[Blackcosmo]

If I can find a way I will but if the fire's too big and it's everywhere, the cat will most likely be dead and there would be no way in.

[DizzyDesii]

Yea its a huge fire

[boggboss]

Would be me working out if it could be done any level of slight risk when attempting it and thats a fat no

[DizzyDesii]

Lmao

[boggboss]

I get it nobody wants to see a animal suffer cool but its not even close to equal to a human life I would be willing to risk my life for someone but not a pet

[DizzyDesii]

Exactly i said the same

[letuswaltzforthedead]

I would but that dude ought to scrutable with what he's saying, otherwise I wouldn't know who i'm saving lol

[DizzyDesii]

He was outta breath cause they all almost died just from saving him

[letuswaltzforthedead]

Was the wife ok though?

[DizzyDesii]

Yea they had to go through the rooftop and bust open a window to get her out

[letuswaltzforthedead]

Sounds like a lot but ok, I feel bad for her tho. For everyone tbh 😂

[Sparkie460]

Yes I'd go back in for a cat or dog. That is if my battalion chief would let me go back in.

Personally, I would make sure all my animals were out of the house. I'd keep going in to get them all out.

[DizzyDesii]

I like when people mention their chief

[alice55]

I would but only if it wasn't dangerous to do so, sometime you cannot go back in cause it's too dangerous but then again you have people that would just run in so

[loveslongnails]

It would depend on what stage the fire is at. I wouldn't risk my own life to save an animal if I thought it was too dangerous. The humans are out - that's the only real priority.

[DizzyDesii]

I agree

[Mangospacho]

Only if it’s a dog because cats are usually serial arsonists and the cat was probably the one who started the fire to protest getting more expensive fancy cat food.

[DizzyDesii]

Daaaaamn thanks for the tip

[Mangospacho]

Yeah it’s just like when all the hostages are released and the hostage taker pretends to be one of the hostages so he doesn’t get caught by the police.

[DizzyDesii]

Thats really messed up

[ElvenMr]

I'm never getting a cat 😂

[Horse-girl]

I would definitely try, I hate the thought of any living being getting burnt alive and also to me pets are family.

[ElementoP]

If I was there, the pet would've already been the first one out. Then I might decide to go back for the people if the mood was right

[DizzyDesii]

Woww

[TrueConfection]

I'd like to believe I would, but I wouldn't really know for certain unless I was in that situation.

[1GoldTwins]

"Sure, bitch! But you come with me first!"

[DizzyDesii]

Lmao what

[1GoldTwins]

😂😂 the image in my head was the last person still being stuck in the house!

[DizzyDesii]

Lolk

[1GoldTwins]

But yes, I would go back. I've lost pets before. It's an animal, but it's part of the family, you've known it for so long, I don't want them to go through that pain, not like this

[Den1971]

To be completely honest the pets would come first. My dog Jax is (MY SON) I love him
He's a rescue. I told him he would never have a bad day ever again. He won't

[DizzyDesii]

These aren't your pets in the scenario tho

[Den1971]

Yes I would go bad for their pet

[AviatorTom]

If it's safe to go into the building, I'd go back in to get the cat. Hopefully the cat's name is not Gladys.

[RavVid]

Cats are clever. :)

I would think there would be protocols for firefighters.

[DizzyDesii]

There are but in the show the chief told the guy to go in and hurry back

[Th3ft]

I mean with in reason but I would be willing to push the odd for a pet for sure!

[DizzyDesii]

Oh okay

[Th3ft]

Lol! Would you? I mean I’m just thinking about how I felt about my past pets. Like I wouldn’t want to think that a fire fighter just left one of them to die because he didn’t want to go fight a fire. That being said I don’t think I could morally keep a cat or dog in an apartment building like that… like I wouldn’t feel comfortable with that… haha! You know? I am firmly of the opinion that they need to run and play and cats need to hunt. And I wouldn’t feel comfortable with that. I’d maybe get birds fish in that case…

[DizzyDesii]

I’d risk my life for a kid... anyone else is give or take which is why i shouldn't be a firefighter

[Th3ft]

Haha! Have you ever thought about being a fire fighter?

[DizzyDesii]

Yea it was a big dream as a kid. I just didn't want to work around the same dalmation lmao. But then i had a nightmare where i fell off a ladder that climbed into the sky. I died slowly. Had another dream i was a cop. Then got shot and died slowly. Yea not tryna be either now

[Th3ft]

Fuck girl your dreams! 😂😂😂 that sucks! I would legit end up staying home for ever with those kinds of dreams…

[DizzyDesii]

I tried to fall back asleep but the dream switched haha

[Th3ft]

😂😂 of course it did…😏

[kellytheman]

I am a pretty big pet lover so if I was able to I go back in if I was a good firefighter.

[DizzyDesii]

Awww

[Literalbillionaire17]

It depends on how bad the blaze is. I would if it’s not super bad but if it’s bad sorry that’s pet will have to enjoy pet heaven.

[DizzyDesii]

Its a super huge fire

[Literalbillionaire17]

Yeah nah that pet is getting left 😭

[DizzyDesii]

😂😂

[Phoenix98]

Lmao I know a couple of fire fighters maybe I should ask them this question 😂

[DizzyDesii]

Definitely lol

[Dargil]

I would have to gauge the risks that remain after the last rescue.

[DizzyDesii]

From nearly dying just saving the others?

[Dargil]

Poor barbecued kitty!

[DizzyDesii]

Might make a good dinner

[Dargil]

Don't talk about the Chinese, that way. RACIST! (kidding). My wife won't eat the Kitty or rabbits. But of you are a goat, I's watch my back.

[DizzyDesii]

I didn't even know they eat cat lmao. I just mean eating it in general

[Dargil]

They eat kitty and puppy in china.

[Anonymous]

~I'm not going in that fire~ R. I. P Gladys ~ 🙅🏾‍♀️🙅🏾‍♀️ 🔥😿🔥😿

Im sorry I couldn't help myself.

[DizzyDesii]

😂😂

[pizzalovershouse]

I let my chief decide if it was ok or not

[DizzyDesii]

Smart man

[pizzalovershouse]

Yep😊👍

[MikeInHawaii]

A fire fighter doesn’t HAVE TO go in and get a person. If the risk is too great, they don’t need to die in the line of duty for a lost cause.

[annabananna]

I would as long as their was a way to do it and not put myself in jeapordy.

[DizzyDesii]

It was a deadly situation

[AsaKyo]

Yes, there's no way I would let their pet go like that

[DizzyDesii]

Awww

[Valso]

"The guy" is Cpt. Bobby Nash, LOL And the show is "9-1-1". :D

[DizzyDesii]

Lol the guy was actually Buck who got the cat. But yea the cap did say look for a pet

[Valso]

I remember that episode but it seems I didn't remember who went for the wife. 😆 😜
Anyway, "9-1-1" feels a lot better than "Chicago Fire" which became an endless sap story. I thought it would end after season 10 but looks like the producers intend to milk that cow while they can.

[DizzyDesii]

I agree 911 was amazing s1 and s2 but tbh, im not really feeling it now. Chicago fire was good s2-5 but 5-10 are dragging along. Im honestly a bit tired of both shows. 911 season 3 and 4 werent all that memorable aside from the tsunami episode

[Valso]

The first time I found 9-1-1 I started watching it only bc of Corinne Massiah cuz she's hot (well, not as hot as a certain actress with French origins but still - hot enough 😁 ). And I returned to watching it again for the same reason. Hopefully they won't turn that show as well into an endless sappy story.

[DizzyDesii]

she's wasn't even legal when the show started tho

[Valso]

In USA maybe, but not in my country.

[DizzyDesii]

Dude thats nasty either way. The thought makes me uncomfortable so i’m going to just exit this conversation

[Twalli]

If there's very little chance if me dying in said attempt, probably

[DizzyDesii]

I said its a hugeass fire lmao meaning that y'all already barely saved the people

[Twalli]

Then, no

[Twalli]

Considering that it was his wife, not his pet, I can understand his lack of caring for the cat

[isoterminal2060]

I've actually already done that before being a Volunteer firefighter

[TheAfrikan]

Lol nah a pet is not valuable than me eisking ma ass in thoae flames as in for.

[DizzyDesii]

Ikr 😂

[TheAfrikan]

And I do know you would not walk ya ass back in there for a pet lizard 🦎

[DizzyDesii]

Not for any pet

[TheAfrikan]

Hhhh now you are talking lol,

[Shy_Steve]

I wouldn't if i thought it was too dangerous.

[dustybiker]

I would have taken the pets out first. 🫠

[Anonymous]

Maybe if the risk is minimal. Otherwise, NO!

[Blaine999]

Whether it's a person or an animal I'd jump back in the inferno to pull them out

[Cherry234]

Yes. I don't want to see an animal die.

[DizzyDesii]

But you bout to die tryna save it lol

[Cherry234]

Then I'll risk my life.

[sirderpsalot123]

@Cherry234 You're a better man than me 🤣🤣

[Cherry234]

@sirderpsalot123 lol 😂

[The_Shadow_Dweller]

Depends on the fire. I have my life too.

[DizzyDesii]

Glad you see it that way

[Faith18letsgo]

I wouldn’t save the animal.

[DizzyDesii]

So direct but i like the honesty haha

[Faith18letsgo]

Thanks. Lmao. Definitely a bit of a selfish bitch.

[DizzyDesii]

A human life should be placed before an animal. As simple as that

[exitseven]

I think I would go back to save a pet.

[Pink2000]

I would definitely try.

[DizzyDesii]

Yea i know you love your pets

[sirderpsalot123]

If I believed that it was doable

[DizzyDesii]

In this case it was pretty deadly

[sirderpsalot123]

Then I would tell the family to take comfort in the fact that all animals go to heaven... 😬

[DizzyDesii]

😂😂

[ArtemisSilver]

I like cats, therefore I see no problem with this.

[DizzyDesii]

Even though he saved the wrong person

[ArtemisSilver]

Hey, shit happens he's just being a champion. LoL

[Jamie05rhs]

LOLOLOL! 😂

(Lord, I apologize.)

[DizzyDesii]

Ikr 😭

[Jamie05rhs]

Lol yeah. Poor Gladys. 😂😭😂

[Shadow_Monarch]

Depends how big the fire is.

[DizzyDesii]

I stated its huge lmao

[Shadow_Monarch]

There are different verities if huge. But if it's a fire that can't be controlled, then no.

[Trpkjr]

Absolutely!! Pets are family

[baserunner611]

I am asking my brother in law I think info

[DizzyDesii]

Is he a firefighter?

[baserunner611]

Yes, in Michigan

[legalboxers]

its a furbaby... so yes

[DizzyDesii]

Boy lmao

[legalboxers]

-blinks- Im a cat person. a cat - in some instances - would be my child.

[Wise4myage]

Id certainly try.

[DizzyDesii]

Aww nice

[Wise4myage]

Thanks my friend.

[DizzyDesii]

*secretly fangirling over being called friend*

[Wise4myage]

Hehe.

[TrillXHippy]

It depends on how bad the fire is

[DizzyDesii]

Its deadly huge

[ElvenMr]

Yea, but not at all costs.

[DizzyDesii]

I means its a 50/50 chance of survival

[Raaj4you]

Of course yes. It's my duty to save.

[DizzyDesii]

Not if the fire is deadly. Chiefs call their team out the building for a reason

[Raaj4you]

Yes, but I'll try my best to rescue.

[Zolly99999]

Yes. I love animals

[DizzyDesii]

Even tho its a deadly fire?

[Zolly99999]

Yes !

[Agape93]

Yeap.

[DizzyDesii]

What if its a pet snake

[Agape93]

Sure. Not a tarantula or scorpion though.

[DizzyDesii]

Aww leavin behind the 8 legged freaks

[Agape93]

Yeap, fuck em lol
