Floyd Askin first joined the Service as a retained firefighter in 2001, before joining as a wholetime firefighter the following year.

He became a Guinness World Champion when he took part in the 'World Ladder Climb Record' in 2012.

IOMFRS posted to social media to say Floyd will be 'very much missed.'
