Firefighter Pours Out Two Bootfuls of Sweat After F-16 Crash [Video]

Fire is hot, but so is the equipment brave firefighters have to wear to fight it. It’s probably not a surprise to anyone that firefighters sweat under all that gear, but the volume of it is amazing. This video shows a firefighter dumping a lot of sweat from the boots of his “Level-B suit” after putting out a fire from an F-16 crash in 110 degree heat. You shouldn’t be able to pour your sweat out of your shoe. Seriously. Go thank a firefighter, and will somebody please buy this guy a beer?
