What’s that sound? 🔊 The Personal Alert Safety System (PASS) emits a loud audible alert to signal that a firefighter is in distress. This alarm can be activated manually or will automatically trigger if the device is armed and the firefighter remains motionless for 30 seconds. 🚒 It might seem amusing to see a firefighter "wiggle" now and then, but this simple action is a crucial lifesaving safety measure. 🔥 #SRQCounty #SRQCountyES | Sarasota County Emergency Services

Ever seen a firefighter wiggle before? 👀 Firefighters wear a PASS Device (Personal Alert Safety System). It’s a critical piece of safety equipment that emits a loud alarm if the wearer stops moving or is in distress, alerting others that a firefighter may be trapped, unconscious, or hurt when time is of the upmost importance. Since standing still too long can trigger it, you’ll often see firefighters wiggle, stomp, or shuffle to keep it quiet. Or, in this case, they’ll bust out into the best da

Our SCBA have a PASS alarm built into them. The PASS alarm stands for Personal Alert Safety System and will alert others if a firefighter is motionless for too long. When we have our SCBA on and are standing still at a fire scene or at training, they tend to go off. You will see the shake/shimmy/twerk from firefighters to keep the alarm from sounding. #themoreyouknow | Mt. Lebanon Fire Department

Ever seen firefighters doing a little jig while standing still? They’re resetting their PASS device alarm. If no movement for ~30s, it blares a 95 dB distress siren. That wiggle = “I’m here, I’m safe.” A tiny move that could save a brother. 🔥 #firefighter #pass #safetydance #viralreels #respect #hero #safety | MindBlow Fact

DNV Fire Fighters Union on Instagram: "Firefighter air packs all have a PASS (personal alarm safety system) that chirps if we are motionless for 30 seconds. The detector is on our waist strap so we gotta shake it to let it know we are ok. Then it resets. If we remain motionless it will eventually go into full alarm mode. This is extremely loud so that other firefighters can locate us if we are trapped or unconscious."
