Car Fire Suppression Training : )
« on: December 18, 2006, 20:07:47 »
Hello everyone,

Playmobil and Playmobil Township Fire Departments recently held a training on vehicle fire suppression.

NO PLAYMOBIL WAS HARMED.  0)

The victim was a 1/18 scale Chevy Impala... I know I'm crazy, but I've wanted to do this photo story for the longest time.  8}

Firefighters advanced to the car and started the Suppression.

The fire was quickly knocked down and entry was made to secure the rest of the car.

Playmobil Township firefighters also made quick work of their own car fire.

New ground broken again, Ben.  First burning buildings and now burning cars!  Great! ;D  And as always great photos and poses.

(I once did the same thing to a Burago Ferrari for a display, but not with klickies present.)

Hey Gordon and Jimbo,

It was interesting taking to the pictures. It's gonna be the only time this happens though, I'm not into breathing in toxic junk on my days off.  ;)

Thanks for the comments.

Fantastic!  :D

As usual very well done. I really like the fire in the engine compartment ... with this red glow on the ground ... I'm once again surprised how you control the fire to make such pretty pictures.
