Parisian firemen posing for the tourists
Friday, April 14, 2006 Posted by Eric
On my way to work this morning I saw a motorcycle accident in front of the Opera (not the opera house of yesterday at Bastille, but the old one at Place de l'Opéra). The motorbike was still lying in the road, but no one seemed injured and the rescue teams looked pretty relaxed... so relaxed that a couple of firemen even posed for a tourist. Pretty unusual, I can assure you!

pour une fois qu'il pose autement que sur des calendrier c'est plutot plaisant. j'en parlerai a mon papa qui lui aussi est pompier sur le continent.
ton clichés est trés cocasse mais vraiment cool.

Great photo! Such jambons!
April 14, 2006 12:55:00 AM GMT+02:00
c'est vrai qu'ils sont mignons... Et je comprends a quel point cette photo est "unusual". Mais vu le nombre d'accidents impliquant des motards, c'est bon d'entendre une histoire qui finit bien!!
see you later!
Dagobert.

I was just gonna say, maybe Paris really is turning into a tourist-friendly town?! Good catch, Eric!

Very funny couple

The pompiers were out in force during the marathon on Sunday, they were great! real Paris ambassadors, like Eric!

Bravo les pompiers! Bien sympas, et un joli couple. ;-)

(english: maybe the tourist asked them [to take the picture] in french...)

Nous aurons tous besoin d'eux un jour ou l'autre.
We will need them one day or an another ( not sure for translation !)

too bad their not wearing their silver helmets!
April 14, 2006 8:35:00 AM GMT+02:00
Well, I'm back, sort of. It's a very long story, but I'm glad to be here. I see that I have a lot of catching up to do on Eric's and, may I say, EVER EXPANDING City Daily Photo listings! Unbelievable how it has grown.
After being back in the U.S. for a while, it's nice to see a photo of the firemen doing something nice. The news over there was all about riots, fires, and rampage in France. Was it really that bad?
April 14, 2006 8:59:00 AM GMT+02:00
Yup, how often do you see that happening? =P
April 14, 2006 9:11:00 AM GMT+02:00
How funny!!!!
That is a riot. I have to show my son - he is on his way to becoming a volontary fireman this month!

Au moins ceux-là ne posent pas en tenue d'Adam :)
Bises à tout le monde et merci Eric de m'autoriser à mettre mes petits coms (je commence à croire que les parisiens sympas, ça existe...je riGOle, bien sûr ! :))
Have a nice (good fri)day !

Michael when you say "back" does that mean in Paris?
April 14, 2006 1:27:00 PM GMT+02:00
Hehehe...see Eric you are not the only friendly Parisian...here's two more!
April 14, 2006 1:45:00 PM GMT+02:00
Yes Buzzgirl...why...do you have more Girl Scout cookies??? Yummmmm

I love the photograhic dynamics in this picture - picture of a person taking a picture and, perhaps, Eric, you ended up in her picture, which would make for a lovely mise en abyme. Funny, yesterday, in Atlanta, I did my corny touristy thing by taking a picture of a member of the "Ambassador Force" - a corps a friendly city employees (I assume) who are there just to help tourists find their way around downtown Atlanta. I asked the guy if I could post it on my blog and he said yes, so it will be up very soon after I am back home.
I love the guys' pose too.
April 14, 2006 2:51:00 PM GMT+02:00
Great pose!
April 14, 2006 5:01:00 PM GMT+02:00
especially good pose from the guy on the right side :-)
April 14, 2006 5:14:00 PM GMT+02:00
Everyone is looking to this show, if your city mayor see this probably will charge another tax to photography!
April 14, 2006 5:37:00 PM GMT+02:00
Eric, I have been a daily visitor to your website for awhile, but have never commented until now. I am visiting Paris again next month, and looking at your photos make me so excited to be in my favorite city soon! Merci :) Today's photo brought a big smile to my face :)
April 14, 2006 5:55:00 PM GMT+02:00
What a perfect shot! Love the guy on the left - his hand so perfectly placed behind him!
April 14, 2006 9:45:00 PM GMT+02:00
Hello Eric,
Nice shot (as usual), and thanks for the firemen, I really love them!! ;o)
April 14, 2006 10:27:00 PM GMT+02:00
Kinda cute from behind! Do you think they'd consider "putting my fire out"?

Disaster is likely to wreak havoc in the life of an individual as soon as he becomes victim to erectile dysfunction and the most significant dreadful consequence of erectile dysfunction is that the afflicted man becomes incapable of facilitating erections required for sexual intercourse. The sexual vacuum resulted from erectile dysfunction prompts the sufferer to opt for anti-impotency pills, most especially the viagra medication that was approved by FDA (Food and Drugs Administration) as a clinically effective drug to cure erectile dysfunction in men. Viagra is meant to be administered by patients only after availing of viagra prescription from the doctor. The prescription for Viagra provided by the doctor spells out that the patient suffering from erectile dysfunction seriously need Viagra to treat his disorder and further authorizes the patient to avail of Viagra from the pharmacist.
