CELEBRITY This is Us

Audiences of the dramatic series 'This is Us' know about the tragic fate of Jack Pearson. The actor who plays the stoic character, Milo Ventimiglia, joins up with the battery brand Duracell to promote fire safety.

Ventimiglia went to FDNY's FireZone learning center in Manhattan to provide tips to protect your house and family from electric fires.

"First of all, fires are dangerous," Ventimiglia said, according to Mashable. "You never know when they’re going to happen, so the best thing we can do is take some preventative measures so that we are alerted of fires that are in the home."

Ventimiglia's character, Jack Pearson, died from smoke inhalation during a household fire. Audiences were devastated to see the amazing father and husband pass, especially in such an unexpected manner.

"I’m grateful that the show is sparking the conversation that it does, that it’s inspiring people to share their stories amongst themselves but also with me if they see me," he said. "I think as an artist you always hope the work you’re doing is going to make an impact in someone else’s life that’s watching and it’s been nice to know this show is doing that for people."

RIP Jack Pearson, forever in our hearts.
