The “Chicago Fire” star has also earned the approval of a real-life firefighter.
David Eigenberg gives a terrifying look into the life-threatening scenarios of first responders. But how does the show compare to the lives of real firefighters?
“You can get lost in it, believe it or not, in a heartbeat because your brain is doing something different,” the actor explains. “You’re not prepared for that. So your brain goes, ‘All right,’ and you’re following the wall because you’re dragging your hand along the wall and you can’t see and then all the sudden you don’t know where you are.”
One characteristic of firefighters that Eigenberg picked up on while spending time with first responders: their sense of humor. Olivas says the life-threatening and sometimes fatal events he sees on the job “eats you up inside,” especially when seeing horrible situations involving children.
