Close call caught on video: Live power line falls on fire captain

UPDATE

Billy Goldfeder at The Secret List came up with the details on this close call from the San Bernardino FD:

This video is of an incident that happened about a year ago-but is excellent for all of our training. You’ll see a relatively small dwelling with an obvious working fire in the rear. As companies were setting up, they found a stripped hydrant, the IC strikes the second right away, crews find a second source, companies go to work etc. 

The IC assigned a Captain to handle fire attack and the Captain did as ordered. As he approached the dwelling, San Bernadino Fire Captain Greg Gallagher was struck in the helmet by a powerline line but thankfully did not suffer any injury.
