An award winning documentary following 24 men and women through a grueling five month fire academy. It’s firefighting like you’ve never seen before -- Its the real thing -- up close and personal... very personal!

A Firefighters Journey is an iOS app presentation of the highly acclaimed film "Rickys Rib Shack, a Firefighters Journey".

Shot at Denvers Fire Academy, this movie takes you into the fire, closer to the action than any movie has done before. Our film crew was given unprecedented access inside the fire building including all training events during the academy. With 140 hours of raw footage shot during a six month period, this film is the definitive journey of the recruit firefighter. It takes you on a heart pounding adrenaline rush right into the heat of the fire.

"We were so close to the action, I was hit by swinging axes and falling debris, slammed into walls by exhausted, unaware firefighters. One camera was damaged and a wireless microphone melted."
-- Rob Bieber, director/camera operator.

This film is a must see for anyone considering a career in the fire service, and for friends and family of firefighters struggling to understand the true nature of the firefighters job.

Great head-check...

I figured out only nine months ago that I wanted to be a Firefighter/Paramedic. I just watched this movie in my first Fire Science class, and it was quite the experience. At the end, my instructor said "Its even hard just watching it, isnt it?" and he was SO correct. I came out of seeing what must be done to get that cherished badge with a BIG mix of emotions. But it did make me want this career more than I did before seeing the film. It also helped that there was a mix of ages in the Fire Academy class that they follow, since Im 34 just starting to go at this.

Bottom line--the film is engaging and fantastic to watch, whether you just want to know a little more about firefighting, or you are someone entertaining it as a career. I still have piles of stuff to learn before I figure Ill make it into my dream job, but this certainly helped cement my confidence and desire to pursue it.

Fire buff

This is the real thing. Firefighters go through strenuous training that an average person would not subject themselves to. If you want to see what its like to become a firefighter, you should see this film. Do you have what it takes?
