Firefighter's pirouette: Icy danger as fire truck spins out, crashes into car in Missouri

The states of Missouri and Arkansas in America are experiencing a severe winter. The icy roads present a real challenge even for those who are there to help. The Fire Brigade from Jefferson County shared two videos to demonstrate the risks they face.

The event was recorded from two places.

The fire truck, weighing approximately 66,000 pounds, beautifully pirouettes before colliding with a Chevrolet Cruze, which was previously part of another accident. Subsequently, the car rolls down the stairs of a nearby home, while the fire truck gracefully comes to a halt on the driveway.

Firefighters confirmed that no one was injured and the only damage was to four wheels. The emergency services urge the public to share these videos as a warning about current road conditions.
