Wonder why everyone is asked to do their part and shovel your neighborhood fire hydrant? Skip this video to 9:45 and you will see numerous FDNY firefighters, full gear with mask... shoveling out a hydrant. Not only do they have to perform firefighting duties to try to confine and extinguish a fire to minimalize damage of someone's important belongings, but they have to shovel the hydrants out. In a fire, seconds count. It is a good thing at this fire, no one was trapped by flames. This could have easily been life or death. Don't think your above shoveling out a hydrant, because if it's your house that catches fire, you may be 6 feet below everyone in the end. I hate to put it like that but it's true.
