More Heavy Lifting in Chicago (Caution 4 Images)
These should help explain some of the questions posed by my previous post. This was a HUGE fire and thankfully no one was killed. 3,000 people in the building at peak (around 800 at time of fire) and 36 injuries, mostly Chicago Firefighters.

Re: More Heavy Lifting in Chicago (Caution 4 Images)
Thanks! Just really noticed that last one. Was thinking more about showing how much they had to carry You are right, it could be good.

Re: More Heavy Lifting in Chicago (Caution 4 Images)
I can think of a few photographers who may come out of this rather pissed.

Re: More Heavy Lifting in Chicago (Caution 4 Images)
See the building in the last picture to the right of the bank? The one the flag is covering part of? That's where I worked last year! lol

Re: More Heavy Lifting in Chicago (Caution 4 Images)
TQ. I think most if not nearly the entire collection of great photographs survived. I remember a news report last week. Have a tough time believing that there were none on the fire floors though.

Re: More Heavy Lifting in Chicago (Caution 4 Images)
Fantastic shots, That is one heck of a lot of heavy gear they have to carry, it's a wonder they can even move never mind fight a fire, My hat is off to any and all firefighters.
