Question i am just enquiring on whether you need to be a certain height and weight to become a fire fighter?
Answer Hi Donna,
I am only aware of 5-6 departments in the country who have height and weight policies. As long as you can preform at the same level as the other firefighters you should be fine.
Several departments have what is called the CPAT test. Run, Jump, Swing a sledge, and pull hose in a given time. It is pretty exausting and you either pass of fail. Many departments are going to this test.
If you are not in shape, you should probably start working on that. If I can help you in any way, Let me know.
Good Luck
Mike
