Firefighter Leaves TikTok Stunned With His Ability To Quickly Scale Buildings Using A Single Ladder

A Russian firefighter's TikTok has gone viral after he exhibited a show of strength and agility to rival any professional fighter in a training exercise captured on video for the platform.

Fireman Artur, who uses TikTok account @artur.prosport, posted a video of himself easily scaling three stories of a wall with a single ladder in under 12 seconds.



He has a few videos of himself throughout the account accomplishing the feat, which he is apparently proficient at even in contrast to his fellow firefighters.

TikTokers were absolutely stunned.

Fire sport is a distinctly eastern European type of competitive sport that developed in the mid-late 20th century after groups of volunteer firepeople began developing their own subculture in a post-WWII environment.

The sport includes tower climbing—what our original poster has mostly posted himself doing, a 100 m obstacle course, a 400 m relay race, and then a shoot-the-hose-at-the-target game called "Fire Attack."

A different video on the account sees our original poster running the length of a balance beam with two coiled up fire hoses in an unknown event.

Karoline Leavitt Responds To Pope Leo Calling Out MAGA's 'Pro-Life' Hypocrisy—And Somehow She Made It About Biden

Pro-forced birth conservatives are upset as their hypocrisy has been called out again. Self-proclaimed pro-lifers were appalled to be told again that being pro-life means supporting more than embryos and fetuses.

On Tuesday during a press gaggle, Pope Leo XIV criticized the United States government's treatment of immigrants, saying—under his authority as the head of the Holy Roman Catholic church—Catholic politicians must be judged on the full range of their policy positions, not just on their rhetoric about abortion.

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.
