A recent YouTube video shows a Canadian firefighter falling from a roof.
The footage shows firefighters at the scene of a fire that damaged a public building on rue Duvivier in Longueuil, Quebec.
The firefighter loses his grip on the roof and tumbles off it, trying to use his hand tools to hang on.
