Firefighters need to be rescued from third floor, but there's NO LADDERS UP!

At the 4:30 minute mark, a crew of 3 becomes trapped in a third floor bedroom due to debris blocking their exit.  They quickly get low on air and need to be rescued.  Unfortunately, there were no ladders in place when the firefighters needed it.

If you're on a fire with more than 1 story, throw some ladders.  We never know when we'll need the emergency exit.  It can happen to us.

Be careful when working on roofs.  It's a skill we rarely practice and could pose extreme danger when we least expect it.
