Beginning in 2014, in cooperation with the U.S. Forest Service, I immersed myself with Wildland Fire Incident Command Teams throughout the country. I slept in tents, on the grass, and in trucks with the many different units responsible for fire abatement, from the glamorous hotshots to the unsung radio dispatchers. Fires are remembered by the scope and scale of their destruction. My goal was to show the army that stopped them.

To pull off the stunt safely and capture it all for the camera required a small army of people, from cameraman to ocean rescue specialists to helicopter pilots. Meet the crew of 16 who helped Rex train, pull off, and film the stunt. …
