    During training this week, Las Vegas firefighters pumped water to the top of, and off the Stratosphere observation tower on the Las Vegas strip. The structure, one of the largest of its kind in the world, has been the scene of previous fire emergencies. It takes three pumpers to build enough pressure to get water to the top of the tower.
