Great story. Thankfully we have people that run TOO the trouble and not just stand there or run away.

as a survivor of a house fire, I know what it takes to brave something that is beyond terrifying... big stones and an even bigger heart.. no words can say what that young man stands for.. except that the world needs more like him!
A good run is better than a bad stand!

I pray never to be in that situation to see if the stones are there personally. Bravo. And Respect.
Mike, did he make Eagle Scout too? I know you are. Usually that kind of person proves himself in life in my experience.

Although I don't know him personally, Thank you. As a career firefighter I have a special place for the guys that volunteer to do this job. He did exactly what he is trained to do....without hesitation. The last thing they tell you when you leave the fire academy is to trust your training. He did!
