Hot Air Balloon stuck in a tower. In episode 265 of The Real ResQ Podcast, Jason sits down with the Longview Fire Department crew.
This rescue was a race against time as firefighters began a grueling climb that would take over an hour just to reach the victims, all while a massive balloon canopy whipped in the wind, threatening to tear free at any moment.

In this deeply personal episode of The Real ResQ Podcast, host Jason Quinn brings together the people who knew United States Coast Guard Rescue Swimmer #445, Mike Rinaldi, best. His widow, Aggie, his family and his fellow rescue swimmers to honor his life, his service, and the impact he left behind.
Through heartfelt stories and firsthand accounts, listeners are taken from Rinaldi’s early life growing up in Minnesota—where he developed his work ethic, love for hockey, and deep sense of family—to his time in the Coast Guard, where he quickly became known for his relentless positivity, sharp sense of humor, and unwavering dedication to his team.

My wife said I should start doing video. Other friends have said I should start doing video. Well, I’ve been working on it in the background. The time has come!! If I can do video for the podcasts episodes, I will!!

Keeping busy here with @sacmetroairops this crew seriously always sharpening their skills and abiding by Rules #1 and #sr3rescueconcepts . No laziness here and ready to execute!!
What a great week of training with @sr3_rescue !
Lots of flying and hoisting with their amazing instruction for our two newest hoist operators for the first two days of training, working open field and confined space helicopter rescue tactics.
Day 3 focused on rescue swimmer skills in the pool followed by some classroom instruction.
Day 4 and 5 were out at Lake Mead conducting open water hoisting and rescue swimmer tactics both at day and night.
Day 6 we were back at it with flights working on litter hoist operations.
All in all, our team had a blast getting amazing training from SR3 Rescue concepts
Final training days with @sr3_rescue and @lasvegasmetropd . We're at Lake Mead putting what we learned in the pool into practice. Then we do it at night. 🚁⛑️

My favorite on-the-job meal and it fits in a pocket. 25g protein and it actually tastes great.
