IT IS DIFFICULT TO HOLD THE HOSE BECAUSE WATER RUNS AT GREAT SPEED AND PUTS PRESSURE ON WALLS OF THE HOSE ALSO WHEN MOVING SO FAST. SO IT BOUNCES WHEN PRESSURE ON WALLS ARE HIGH. SO IT BECOMES HARD TO HOLD IT.

Explanation:

The water that is ejected out from the hose in the forward direction comes out with a large momentum and equal amount of momentum is developed in the hose in the opposite direction and hence the hose is pushed backward. It becomes difficult for a fireman to hold a hose which experiences this large momentum.
