A firefighter in the U.S has gone viral after using a photo of himself at work – in front of a live fire – as his Tinder profile.
The guy in question is 21-year-old Jonathan who – according to said Tinder profile – works for the Fair Grove Fire Department. His profile also says he’s a fan of offshore fishing and yep, firefighting.
But it wasn’t until Twitter user @HeyNikkkay posted a screenshot of the profile picture and posed the question: “bruh u gonna put that fire out.” that people seemed to notice the slight issue, reports UK Complex.

According to Tinder, firefighters are one of the top five most-swiped professions for men, however it’s a pretty safe bet that although firemen definitely have a rugged, heroic charm, the majority of people would rather they dealt with the fire at hand rather than taking selfies with it.
But it turns out it’s not as bad as it first appeared after a screenshot from Jonathan’s Instagram showing the same photo with the caption: “Just so everyone knows this was a training fire lol.”

Since then, @HeyNikkkay has apologised to Jonathan. But it seems it may have been too little too late with one of her tweets suggesting that poor Jonathon may have lost his job!
Should Jonathan get his job back

But it turns out they are still on good terms:

I hope he at least got a few dates out of it…
