Again a video showing a person working in the HOT Zone with no gloves on, while using a tool to break a window that directly expose the crew to the fire on their route of escape.

I just have one question about the video. Why are fire departments still using acquired structures for live burn training? These are the same types of structures that are seriously injuring and killing firefighters. There should only be live burn training conducted in approved non-combustible structures with certified fire instructors. Why risk firefighter's safety for a training evolution?
