Fire Call VWS

An overview of the main fire call out's of the 2012/2013 Fire Season by the Volunteer Wildfire Services (VWS), a Non Profit volunteer wildland agency based at three bases in the Western Cape, South Africa. I put this together to give people a better idea of what we do, as wildland firefighting is not as well recognised as it is in the USA and Australia. We are every bit as passionate about our lives in front of smoke and flame as other agencies around the world.

Phoenix Fire Shelters-www.phxfireshelters.com
–

I have been creating and designing Insulated Burn Rooms and Fire Chambers for over 8 years. When the wildfire tragedy happened in Yarnell, Arizona and took the lives of 19 firefighters, I implemented the same technology into Phoenix Fire Shelters. Many of the fire shelters in use by firefighters today protect only up to 500°F, and can only withstand these temperatures for a short period, at best. The Phoenix Fire Shelter can be deployed and withstand temperatures in excess of 2,000°F. Our goal is to finalize our products and make it available to firefighters and individuals in order to help to save lives.
