Info from Licensor: "In this video, my fire crew and I were participating in a interior search and rescue. The simulation was a burning building and two firefighters had to find the victim and get them out. In the video, you see what we personally built as a floor collapse prop. The purpose of the prop is the train firefighters that in the rare circumstance if the floor ever gave out under them that they would have the necessary training to keep a level head and find their way out. The firefighters are blindfolded during the entire maze and are forced to rely on sense of touch and hearing. This training is done at our own fire house and is utilized to train new waves of volunteer firefighters."
