Ignite the New Year with the Australian Firefighters Calendar
Kilian Melloy READ TIME: 15 MIN.
The Australian Firefighters Calendar website gives a glimpse of the elaborate nature of the shoot in a video clip showing the shirtless icons at work. Ricky Smith is splashed from a water bottle to simulate a sweaty sheen as smoke billows behind him; others pose singly or in a group before a blazing wall that's been ignited using a liquid accelerant. Hunky silver daddy Dave stomps on a blaze, sending up a dramatic plume of sparks and fire. Photographers from Joba Pro Photo capture the action with split-second timing.
Check out a dozen moments sure to make 2025 a memorable year:
