Desperate Hours - Episode 4 12

In this episode, we explore fire?a force both friend and foe. Mastered by humans hundreds of thousands of years ago, fire remains as inevitable as wind or rain, yet deadly when uncontrolled. Disasters can strike anywhere: from a Brussels department store to a Rhode Island nightclub where pyrotechnics killed 100 people. Firefighters still charge into danger, hauling hoses, scaling stairs with heavy tools, and lifting 35-foot ladders to save lives.
