Fire fighting

Fire fighting is when people use special tools and techniques to put out fires, or to stop them from spreading. Fire fighters use hoses to spray water to put out fires, and they sometimes use special foams that can put out a fire very quickly. Fire fighters also use special tools like axes and ladders to break into a burning building and rescue people or pets who are in danger. They sometimes have to wear special suits and breathing masks to protect themselves from the heat of the fire and all the smoke. Finally, they use a lot of training and practice to stay safe and put out fires quickly and safely.
