Let f : E → F be a continuous map of a complete separable metric space E onto the irrationals. We shall show that if a complete separable metric space M contains isometric copies of every closed relatively discrete set in E, then M contains also an isometric copy of some fiber f −1 (y). We shall show also that if all fibers of f have positive dimension, then the collection of closed zero-dimensional sets in E is non-analytic in the Wijsman hyperspace of E. These results, based on a classical Hurewicz's theorem, refine some results from Pol and Pol (Isr J Math 209:187-197, 2015) and answer a question in Banakh et al. (in: Pearl (ed) Open problems in topology II. Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2007).
