Description
Norwegian firefighters practicing different techniques to extinguish the fire. Here with ignited propane. When shooting from behind them, I had to lay down on the floor, because I was told the heat would make my lens crack if I got up.Hope you like it. I am quite pleased with this one.
More to come, so stay tuned!

It is for opening a hole in the roof of the special container they use. This releases some of the fire and make the flames disappear quicker if the need to stop them. Glad you like it

Ah, I see. I never been to a drill like that, that's very interesting
Well, it would be kinda bad if something goes wrong and all the newbies get toasted >_>

Yes. At the source of the fire, the temperature can rise to about a 1000˚C. One of the crew members had to get out quick when the ignited propane sank towards the floor once.. Normally it stays up along the roof.

Oh, my... o0 This wouldn't be a job for me... >_>
What kind of equipment do you use to take photos in a heat like that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Check the description. Shot with D300s, but that doesn't really matter. It isn't that hot if you lay down on the floor.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I get it. You wore special clothes or was it really okay?
My digi cam crushed once when it was about 40 °C...

Yes, the same outfit as the firefighters, except from that I had no oxygen mask. Hard to shot with a camera with that big thing in your face
