Exclusive access means the camera team follow the fire fighters into the midst of major emergencies resulting in a very real and dramatic coverage at the heart of the crisis. Producer/Narrator Greg Grainger follows the team from C Platoon Blacktown for several months through the most extreme fires recruit training and risky rescues. The program starts at an oil refinery in Port Kembla where a malfunction has triggered a raging inferno in a 14 million litre storage... tank filled with ethanol. Foam dumps from the giant Ericson Air Crane are unsuccessful with the crew from Blacktown called in - along with 150 other fire fighters - to try to quell the blaze. We also follow a new recruit to the platoon former flight attendant Sandy Warner as she goes through an intensive training course including high speed exercises in a 15-tonne fire truck extinguishing a raging car fire and rescuing victims trapped inside a burning building. Other dramas include a house burning out of control wild bushfires and a semitrailer which has crashed into a suburban house.
