Aren't fire hydrant valves usually a few feet underground, which makes running them down not as exciting as it could be? Gas pumps (gasoline), at least in Cana

Aren't fire hydrant valves usually a few feet underground, which makes running them down not as exciting as it could be? Gas pumps (gasoline), at least in Canada, the pump is underground and you're really just holding a big nozzle. Bad, but not too bad. People have been driving into and through those for years. Natural gas lines and meters could be a catastrophe, but they're usually pretty close to a wall.
