What Happens When Tibetan Monks Fight Fires

I used to wonder – what happens when Tibetan monks must fight a fire? Do they even have fires at the top of the world?

Apparently they do, and even the holiest have to know what to do in the event a bush is found burning and nobody’s there to put it out. If I were them and came upon said bush, I’d take off my shoes and listen very carefully.

These guys…hoses, and nozzles, and running and such.

I wonder…if Moses had had firefighting training, how different would things be today?

Always nice to know when a fire will break out so you know when to run.

Yo! Ying, there’s a twist in your yang.

It’s good when a fire knows where its place is.

Time for weenies for the non-vegans in the bunch.
