Rating : - DVD Information from the producers of COPS
Amazing Video Collection: Blazing Infernos features footage shot by camera crews tagging along with firefighters. This video is part of the Amazing Video Collection series from the veteran producers of Cops, the godfather of "Reality Television" shows. Drama has always sought to create emotions vicariously in the audience by staging situations. Reality TV has captured the imagination of the viewing public precisely because the stakes are real and not imagination; producers love the genre because it's genuinely dramatic and inexpensive to shoot -- it's literally "cheap thrills." Sometimes the footage used even comes from scenes captured impromptu on home video camcorders. Highlights of this program include ventures into burning buildings, wildfires, burning homes, towering skyscraper inferno, and daring rescues.
