I'm a firefighter in case you don't know:

so i go on a firecall tonight for a slit wrist

im first there bc we took a shorter way than the ambulance

so i got to examine it first and hold the towel bc im an EMT

(it wasnt overly bad, just split wide open)

after the call, on the way back, the tire sounded funny on the rescue truck(duely rear on a F350)


we went to speedway to fill it

im laying completely under the truck, both hands on the thing filling, head on the outside tire(inside tire was flat) bc the stem was way in there.....and the f**king thing blew up 3" from my head. it wasnt full, its a 95psi tire that was at ~65...but something gave, and it blew up with a LOUD bang and a cloud of smoke...got a few markss from that

im lovin the ringing in my ears and headache at the base of my head/neck

paramedic on duty, hes like "if you get a discharge in the ears, go to the ER"

so after that had like 45min of paperwork to do about the truck and had to put it out of service

great ending to the night
