Firemen risk lives to remove flaming gas cylinder from residential building in China
A team of heroic firemen risked their lives to carry a flaming gas cylinder out of a building in eastern China.
The video, shot in the city of Zibo in Shandong Province on March 1, shows a fireman carrying a burning gas cylinder out of a fifth-floor kitchen while another fireman used a water hose to cool it down.
According to reports, hot oil splashed onto the gas pipe on the cylinder when the resident was cooking in the kitchen.
The valve of the gas cylinder was burnt and caused the flames to spray out.
The resident put a wet cloth on the damaged valve but it did not work well.
So the firefighters moved the gas cylinder out of the building to avoid an explosion.
The firefighters then extinguished the fire on the street.
