Guy is a seasoned boss with that dept, from what I remember he had attempted to get her out at first and wasn’t able to. He was then gonna throw his mask on and go in and try to get her out the window from the inside. As we can see she is a bigger lady and he is essentially all alone until those dudes just decide then they wanna help. Was a big talking point a couple years ago, everything that can be said about this has been said 100x.

Yeah, I just saw this for the first time on Instagram today and from what I read he had made another grab (maybe 2? Can't remember) just before this and might have been gassed. I hate the speculation like the rest of these comments. Especially from what should be professionals of the craft. Thanks for adding background to the post.

I remember seeing this a few years ago and yes, he had made several grabs prior to this. I knew people here would be flaming him before I came to the comments.

I've been looking for a source for more information; luckily I grew up in a time/place that taught me the importance of questioning things online rather than taking them face-value as there is almost always more to the story. Hate to do this guy dirty if this is his third grab in quick succession.
