Exposed fire hose

Exposed fire hose

I am not used to seeing fire hoses around much anymore. If they are around, usually they are inside cabinets or wall mounted boxes. In this building, which I believe was the Whitman building, this fire hose just sat hanging on a wall in a hallway.

FIRE HOSE: Guaranteed to rupture immediately when pressurized.

Guaranteed Bear Grylls could ride a 10 story elevator cable like fireman's pole by grabbing the cable with this hose.
