lol 5 LOSERS, more like it…
Thank God for the fact the phone worked and they are all safe and not arrested.
Were they immigrants? American kids these days wouldn't do that.
What service they had all I wanna know?
0:32 I did this as a kid and it wasn’t until later someone said what if you got lost or you ran into a fox or other animal, in the moment you are so curious and don’t even think straight I’m glad they are okay
That’s a cool story they’ll never forget 😂😂
what would they do before everyone gave their kids cell phones
Poor kids. Lesson learned i hope.
Do these kids Eat Paint Chips?
Thanks so much to the professional work of that fire department. God bless each of you. Thank you lord also, of course.
GLAD he had his phone 📱 on him…I AIN'T gonna even hold anyone…😑
Nobody plays in sewers except bacteriologists and the like. Storm drain is what it looks like to me. Sewers are for sewage, not rain.
Google Maps would have been a good ideal to help navigate back
We all float down here.
seriously lucky they weren't too deep for cell service
Too funny and thanks . In the '70's that's how we played everyday.
#PraiseTheLord!
They was chasing those famous NY rats, even the Fire Department knew where they were at, smh
THEY NEED TO PUT SOME BARS INFRONT OF THAT ENTRANCE
IF ITS 40" NOTHING WILL GET CLOGGED
8" SQUARES SOLID METAL TUBING MATERIAL WOULDN'T COST MUCH
Heeee haaaaa! Glad they are safe 🙏 ❤.
I never went that far, but I do remember playing in the sewer once or twice as a kid lol.
I never thought id really say this in the past 10 years, but much thanks that cell phones exist for situations like this!
Da sew-ah?
Jesus, Joseph an Maary.
PUT A GATE ON ALL TUNNELS LIKE THIS !
I remember being in the 3rd grade when my friend and I came across an open manhole. Being fearless as he was, he wanted to go in but I was afraid and declined so we did something else……I'm glad I did. Kind of wonder how it would've gone down had we went in though, this must've been around 2001 or so, so there wouldn't have been cellphones to save us if anything went wrong.
No need to punish them, anyway. None of them want to go through that again.
It sounds like Pete Davidson
Glad the kids have been found! Now quick, lock the sewer gate or Donald will escape and run for president again.
This story would make for a movie.
They are not firefighters they are firemen
They were looking for Pete Davidson's career.
Boys, man… gotta love them!
Let IT 🤡 have em 😂
A result of bad parenting?
Where would we be without a bit of luck?!
Amen. Kids being kids!Kids! Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 😂
Gotta give ‘em credit for playing outside in this day and age, glad the cellphones worked and they were rescued
