Deployment for the fire department: Flames rise between two buildings in the middle of the busy business district. It is almost impossible to stop the spread: window panes burst under the heat, thick smoke penetrates surrounding houses and entrances are partially closed. As there are increasing indications that an underground car park could also be affected, the situation worsens. Also: A paraglider has an accident in the dense forest around the Königsstuhl. A demanding search and rescue operation begins for the fire and rescue services - only with experience and special equipment is there a chance of finding the casualty and taking him to the hospital.

An elderly woman also complains of heart palpitations and shortness of breath. Bochum city center: In the middle of the night, a resident calls the fire department. The smoke alarm beeps in the apartment next door and he smells burning outside the apartment door. The firefighters have to hurry because they suspect that there is still someone in the apartment. The high-altitude rescuers, a special unit of the fire department, have training sessions every week, this time together with the trainees. The training scenario: A person has injured himself while working at a dizzying height and needs to be rescued. At an S-Bahn station in Langendreer, several schoolchildren are stuck in an elevator and a car is fully ablaze.

The control center dispatcher has to locate her cell phone and navigate the emergency services to the injured woman in the middle of a forest. Can the rescue workers find the woman in time?

Flames erupt from an apartment building in Bochum. The tenant of the apartment on fire was able to escape outside in time, but the neighbors' lives were in danger.

Can emergency services rescue parents and children through the windows? An alarm also goes off at the Bochum fire station during the night: securing a motorcycle that has been involved in an accident. The situation on site is completely different: a truck has had a serious accident, the driver is trapped and has to be freed.
