With the increasing strain on public services in response to the ongoing global pandemic , the professional firefighters , EMTs and emergency service professionals that make up High Rise Escape Systems ( HRES ), believe it is irresponsible to believe emergency services will be obtainable , timely and equipped to provide rescue from multi-story buildings , Air Traffic Control ( ATC ) towers or other critical infrastructure environments .

In fact , 99 % of the world ’ s fire ladder trucks cannot reach above 75 feet ( 7 stories ).
