A Fresno firefighter was badly burned Sunday after he fell through the roof of a burning home.

Dramatic video shows the firefighter walking on the roof of the garage and ventilating it when it suddenly collapses and swallows the firefighter.

Seconds later, a massive plume of smoke billows from the hole and fire shoots out of the roof. In the video, bystanders are heard screaming in horror while others are pleading for help, yelling “Get him out!”

Then several firefighters quickly ripped off the home’s garage door and pulled their fellow firefighter from the blaze within three minutes.
