VIDEO: It can be tough to get through to teenagers. But a Massachusetts firefighter who survived one of the deadliest nightclub fires in New England is doing it.
He is sharing his experience to better prepare teens before they head out into the world on their own.
”I'm a survivor of the Station nightclub fire. I know none of you were alive at the time in 2003,” said Onset Fire Capt. Robert Feeney.
He was talking to a group of students at Bourne High School earlier this month, hoping that they might learn something from his story.
“The fire, as fast as I can look across the ceiling, that's how fast the fire went over,” he told them as photos flashed across a screen. “It went from one end of the club to the other and went from a temperature like it is now to hundreds of degrees.”
