Wilson said it was an accident that sparked the need for for personal safety harnesses andbailout bag escape systems. "The purpose of the bail gear is to be a last-minute resort for someone to have to jump out of the window," Wilson said. Before they get them, firefighters are learning how to use them. "As it sits right now, if you get caught in a fire, second story, third story, fourth story, whatever that may be, and you find yourself trapped, the only way to get out is a prayer and a jump," said Chief Kurtis Wilson.īut that will change because JFRD is issuing bailout packets to every firefighter. The money was used to buy personal safety harnesses and firefighter bailout bag escape systems for each member of the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department. – Firefighters in Jacksonville feel safer thanks to a grant and generous donation they received that funded the purchase of lifesaving equipment for each member of the department.
