Steve, a retired Phoenix Firefighter, shares the story of a call that will stay with him forever. Circa 1990. 2AM. A three-story nightclub on Mill Ave. in Tempe catches fire. The building is old. Hidden spaces behind walls and beneath floors conceal the fire. Electricity in the building remains on. These elements create a false sense of security- an illusion that the fire is not as advanced as it truly is. While Steve conducts search and rescue on the second floor, the ceiling above him collapses.
