This makes me so grateful I never saw any of those parodies.

I love how the boys hair colors and shirts change in the short time it takes them to walk to the fire alarm

Thats a good point never pull fire alarms unless if there was a fire

Ahh, the nostalgic fire alarm box that every street corner had in case the street caught fire.

Even for today as cellphones and smartphones makes emergency calls more convenient. But likely means false alarms can call at any second. So barbeque's advice is still important in this day as much it was in the 1980s.

This one works well for Barbecue since Gabe's family are all firefighters, even if he chose the military and yet keeps reserve status with the firehouse his dad works for.

Of all the guys they pick in the G.I. Joe organization to teach kids the importance of fire safety and the consequences of pulling false alarms, Barbecue was the man for the job! And now we know! And knowing is half the battle!

This is one we should show at my College, considering we've had at least 2 false alarms in the last 2 weeks.

+Gaby “Lexicona1996” George In the past, they had fire alarm boxes on the streets in case someone spotted a fire, or if people evacuating their building couldn't actually call the fire department. Cell phones and other modern technology has mostly made them obsolete, though my hometown of Brockton, MA still uses them!

Used to be quite common in the days before cell phones. If you saw a fire or other emergency you would go to the nearest box, pull it and wait for the fire trucks. Then you would tell them where to go.

@@okamijubei Here in Brockton MA, we still have them in place, as a backup in case the electricity and cellular services go out. Our fire department has a dedicated signal division that maintains those fire alarm boxes and the city's traffic lights.

Kids are aware of the possibility that they'll keep the fire dept away from a real emergency but they ask,"Aw what are the chances of an actual fire happening?" The chances are greater than they think.

More probable in big cities, along in rural areas. Suburbans happen the least with safety measures and fire retardant materials.

My freshman year in highschool, there was heavy rain outside and I had a feeling that someone was going to pull the fire alarm just so it would cause everyone to go outside and get soaked and....I was right! To prevent stuff like that from happening again, my school put protection around the alarms and security cameras in the ceiling and it reduced that problem GREATLY. Kids do this because they think it's funny, well I can assure you...IT'S NOT!

This was pyros old job

Interesting how they used an outdoor fire alarm call box back when they were more common. Nowadays they'd probably have this take place inside a school, with a kid about to pull one of the fire alarm system pull stations to evacuate the whole school.

Fire alarms are used to help save lives, they are not here for us to play with and think it's a toy.

Never push the fire alarm

sense when are there fire alarms out in public? I want to see the 1980s!

@Warrior1984100 actually, it was not a stunt. Thing was that when Lakewood caught fire, Binky saw the fire, which rattled him. when the Lakewood students went to Mighty Mountain, his trauma caused him to pull the alarm.

I remember one of my classmate pulled down the fire alarm in my school class. I was living in overseas going to school at the US Army Base in Seoul South Korea. That boy pull down the fire alarm he was just curious to see how things work. I know it was a long time ago.

Like, wonderful advice. Although pulling an alarm without a fire may be fun, it's very naughty. Waiting for that real fire is so much more exciting. Way to go, babes!

what neighborhood has a fucking fire alarm like that in the middle of a sidewalk?!?!

shut up and give me pringles bbq sauce

0:06 That... That sounds like a threat to me.

So Barbeque is from Boston.

You can tell Barbecue and Blowtorch apart even out of costume. Blowtorch has an Irish accent while Barbecue has a Boston accent (which explains why his voice reminds some people of JFK.)

so that's what the pyro does after tf2...

Barbecue and Blowtorch use fire weapons right? Would like to see them vs Firefly and Torch in fire vs fire.

He's nicknamed Barbeque because of a rumor spread by his G-I comrades of how he sneaks into children's homes that are on fire and burns them to ashes with a white light whilst humming like a robot.

That pyro is a spy!

Fiyahfitah

He should have pulled it

Don’t pull the fire alarm or call 911 if there is not an emergency, such as a fire, burglary, or if someone needs urgent medical attention, since it distracts police, firefighters, and paramedics from doing their job and wastes resources, such as time, money, workmanship, lives, and gas from emergency service vehicles. And that is when you have to pay a fine of anywhere between $2,000-$10,000.

Is Barbecue from Bah-ston??

Hey guys, you know whats funny, these people go to sleep, they think everythings fine, everythings good.. They wake up the next morning and they're on fire

I use to pull the fire 🚨 all the time when I use to live in the Bronx and now I feel sorry 😞 if I cost anyone their lives for doing so.
