Anytime I get to help the firefighters, I will. I'm real lucky to be in a position to help.

I shot down some German planes and I got shot down myself, crashing in a burst of flames and crawling out, getting rescued by brave soldiers.

Since I was a boy, from this house, I was out rescuing crocodiles and snakes. My mum and dad were very passionate about that and, I was lucky enough to go along.

Firefighters go where they're needed, sometimes ignoring the dangers even when no one is inside a burning building to be saved.

My cousin Jerry Lucey and five other firefighters died in a warehouse fire in Worcester, Mass. - my hometown - right in the middle of our old neighborhood downtown when a homeless couple started a fire to keep warm and the entire building went up. My cousin died trying to save homeless people who had already left the building.

I rescued a dog. It was a beautiful.

Yes, there have to be places for safe wonderful stories.

I'm a storyteller; that's what exploration really is all about. Going to places where others haven't been and returning to tell a story they haven't heard before.

I'm really into the idea of telling stories. Everyone needs stories. Everyone needs to escape every once in a while.

As the member of a firefighter family myself, supporting the widowed families of rescue workers is an important, personal cause of mine.
