Fiery backstage: photos from the shooting of the charity calendar with naked firefighters

It's getting really hot on the shores of Australia as the next Firefighters Calendar is being filmed these days. The action was born in 1993 and to this day brings money to the charity accounts of the Association of Children's Hospitals and the Burn Department of the Children's Hospital in Westmead.

Firefighters in Australia raise hundreds of thousands of dollars each year with their images to alleviate the suffering of children and help them shorten the rehabilitation period after injuries.

With money earned from sales of calendars, medical centers buy equipment, expand the staff of doctors, conduct research to find new ways to treat children injured in fires.

Every year calendars do not lose popularity. This happens thanks to one simple rule that is used every year when shooting: all characters should be as undressed as possible.

Filming for the 2017 calendar is already underway on the coast of Australia.

This year, 14 men are taking part in the work on the calendar. Very soon we will be able to see the result, but for now we invite you to enjoy a truly fiery backstage.

This year, not only disaster fighters take part in the shooting. They were accompanied by several puppies from shelters. The dogs are now less than a year old, and each can be taken home. Thus, the creators of the calendar are trying to solve two issues at once: to provide sufficient funding for children's medical institutions and to help solve the problem of homeless animals.
