00:01Wait, who are you?

00:02I'm future Chuck. He's me before my five hour energy shot.

00:07Wait, did you get it from the website? Because they have a buy more, save more deal and like 15 flavors to choose from.

00:12No, I just took this one from your stash.

00:14Damn it.

00:20Well, this is a mystery hero in this next story.

00:25Here's a dude who helped put out a fire during the fires in Los Angeles.

00:31But they still don't know who he is.

00:33He's just like a random guy that showed up to try and put someone's house fire out.

00:38And now they're trying to track him down.

00:40Here's the story.

00:42A mystery hero captured on ring camera is getting praise today from the homeowners who say he saved their house from flames.

00:50Hello, can I help you?

00:53Yeah, your house is on fire.

00:55He popped up out of nowhere, alerting them that flames were approaching their home in the Hollywood Hills.

01:00Me and a firefighter are knocking down the blaze now.

01:03You can see embers flying all around and he's not wearing any protective fire gear, only a Nike hoodie.

01:10Patio is locked. There's no way to breach the home from the outside.

01:14So we're using your garden hose to knock it down.

01:16Thank you so much.

01:17No problem. I used to be a firefighter in New York. I'm just helping out.

01:22Thanks to his quick actions, only a small section of the backyard deck burned.

01:27He came and helped. There were no firemen in the area.

01:31It happened last month at the height of the L.A. fires.

01:34But the video is only now being released. And Candace and Vincent Broccato are trying to track down the hero.

01:41If he's watching, what do you want to say to him?

01:43Find us. We would just love to honor him. It's more than just one home you save.

01:51Your house is on fire.

01:53Here.

01:54Hi.

01:55That's a cool dude.

01:56Yeah.

01:57It is a cool dude. I hate when people really try to find...

02:02Oh, they found him.

02:03Oh, good.

02:04They found him.

02:05He's not like a criminal or anything.

02:07They found him.

02:08Let's see.

02:09They...

02:10They could do...

02:11Fire already.

02:12Okay.

02:13When I saw your house, I was like, this house is the first house on the hill that could be the catalyst to the whole block going up.

02:19Exactly.

02:20Tony shot his own video that night, which shocked Vince and Candace.

02:24This house is on fire already.

02:26Oh, my God.

02:27Oh, my God.

02:28Whoa.

02:29All of a sudden, you see the orange kind of starting to flare up again.

02:34The height of it, standing from like this wall had to be like 60 feet flames.

02:38Because we have gear.

02:39But yeah, yeah.

02:40I was hiding behind this for a little of it because the embers were just hitting your pool like meteors.

02:45It was crazy.

02:46What'd they get him?

02:48I got you.

02:49Oh, no.

02:50Oh, no.

02:51They got him a bottle of booze and a sweatshirt.

02:54Oh, no.

02:55He saved their home.

02:56They got him a bottle of booze and a sweatshirt.

02:59Do they even know what kind of booze he likes?

03:02Does he even drink?

03:03What is it?

03:04What is it?

03:05If you have a son that is like a teenager, when grandma and grandpa buy them clothes.

03:15Oh, yeah.

03:16It's awful.

03:17It's the worst.

03:18What kind of sweatshirt?

03:19There's a Columbia.

03:20I didn't see the booze, too.

03:21I didn't see the booze, too.

03:22It was like the meteors.

03:23It was crazy.

03:24Your sweatshirt has to be burned.

03:27Smells like a campfire.

03:28Smells like a campfire.

03:29It's a champion.

03:30Maybe never need it.

03:31After the gifts, an impromptu reenouncement of their first meeting.

03:35Instead of me being the intercom, I'm here in prison.

03:38Who the hell are you?

03:41Hello?

03:42They reenacted the ring camera interaction.

03:46What are you doing in my neighborhood?

03:49It's hilarious.

03:50They got him a sweatshirt.

03:51It was like a sweatshirt and a bottle of booze for saving their house.

03:55Yeah.

03:56That's crazy.

03:57That dude didn't even want any credit, though.

03:58I don't know.

03:59That's what scares me.

04:00I always want to track these people down.

04:02And sometimes just like the right person's there, but maybe they've done some stuff.

04:07They don't want to be found.

04:08And they don't want to be found.

04:10Yeah, possibly.

04:12Yeah, that's one of the...

04:13We were talking about positivity earlier.

04:15When bad stuff happens, that is one thing that does give me faith in humanity.

04:18Yeah, when you see things like that.

04:19There's the selfless people that do stuff for other people.

04:22Right.

04:23Just to help.

04:24I'd be in an unknown bottle of booze in return.

04:26Yeah.

04:27I'd be like, thanks.

04:28It says champion on it.

04:30Probably got the wrong side.

04:31He says, you're a champion.

04:32You're a little thinner than I thought you were.

04:37What does that deserve?

04:39Okay.

04:40I don't know.

04:41If someone saves your house from being burnt down.

04:43If he just looked at it and walked away, they've lost everything.

04:48Yeah.

04:49They've lost everything.

04:50You're so right.

04:51Maybe they don't have a lot to give.

04:53I think they're in the Hollywood Hills.

04:54Well, that's a pretty nice looking house in Los Angeles.

04:56I think you better step up.

04:59I don't know.

05:00To me...

05:01Giving alcohol to a stranger is...

05:02It's wild.

05:03Also, it's presumptuous.

05:04Yeah, you don't know.

05:05It's presumptuous that they're allowed to drink.

05:07He's like, I'm a former alcoholic and I hate the sweatshirt.

05:09Yeah.

05:10Yeah.

05:11Is it money?

05:12Is it money?

05:13Do you give them money?

05:14What do you do?

05:15Maybe.

05:16Isn't that better?

05:17Because what else would you give them?

05:18I was going to say, is it 10,000?

05:19You'd give them something.

05:20I think you should give them a really generous gift.

05:21You saved your whole house.

05:22Honestly.

05:23Buy them a car?

05:24I don't know.

05:25What do you need?

05:26Yeah.

05:27They stopped it.

05:28Car is a lot.

05:29Yeah.

05:30These days it's even more.

05:31Maybe just 10,000.

05:32More than a TJ Maxx off brand sweatshirt.

05:34It should be worth more than that.

05:36Even like a couple grand would be cool.

05:38Yeah.

05:39It's like.

05:40Something, yeah.

05:41Better than a sweatshirt.

05:43No.

05:44No.

05:45No.

05:46No.

05:47No.

05:48No.

05:49No.

05:50No.

05:51No.

05:52No.

05:53No.

05:54No.

05:55No.

05:56No.

05:57No.

05:58No.

05:59No.

06:00No.

06:01No.

06:02No.

06:03No.

06:04No.

06:05No.

06:06No.
