A lawn breather is a firefighter that is breathing through his/or her SCBA (air pack) at unnecessary times, usually in the truck, or standing outside of the fire well away from the smoke and danger. Lawn breathers are normally frowned upon due to the fact, that when they actually have to go into a burning building, they only have 10 minutes of air left, and are the reason the entire hose/interior attack team has to be swapped out after only 5 minutes. Lawn breathers usually have fire department stickers all over their personal vehicles and multiple fire department t-shirts and hats.
