I was talking to members of 55 Engine after a run when a ems box came in. Sorry for the out of focus video, it's a digital camera.
Ladder 1 GET OFF THE ROOF!
Переглядів 845 тис.17 років тому
Ladder 1 venting the roof at a working fire in a 2 1/2 story wood frame in Paterson NJ on 4/7/07. They were ordered off the roof by command as heavy fire blew through the vent hole they just cut.
Never go on the roof or chimney if there is no people in the house, however correct me if i am wrong who's footing the ladder on that video from very beginning ?
2024 anyone
How incredibly boring....
And seemingly no life at risk, ffs , really ?
Idiots
Why didn’t they immediately get off roof when told? The ladder could be retrieved later!
Should’ve had someone footing that ladder
Very effective vertical ventilation. That vent hole is doing exactly what it is supposed to do.
Working so hard to "save" structure that will have to be torn down afterwards.
The BALLS these guys have!
Zrobili otwór aby oddymić poddasze, ale gdzie prąd wody mgłowy celem gaszenia ? Nie widać że gaszą po klatce schodowej od środka. Dostęp powietrza szybko wzmocni intensywność pożaru.
I could never do that job. These dudes are brave men.
Have they forgot what the water hose is for
Do they use water in the USA to deal with fires?
Worried about that ladder. The hell with it. I’m sure the city can afford another one.
i thought firemen had hoses what were they doing Piss on it
Fearless
Why?
Anxiety 💯 this is why it takes the strength of heros. Wow
I know let’s put a hole in the roof and turn this house into a giant chimney so it burns quicker. Ready...let’s go.
It's called venting
other fire depts blow their air horns
I remember my first house fire.......
And that was how not to fight a 🔥
4 guys working a burning attic, 3 right on top of the fire. That fire chief like one of their wives.
They vented the roof and did a great job.
Is that an aluminium ladder?
Where’s the hose, make a hole, squirt water in it. All they did was make a nice chimney to help the fire grow?
Looks like a Chinese fire drill!
What no water!
They’re making a hole so fire will bleed so they can use water. If the inside of the house is fully ingulfed and the outside it’s not you can’t go in. Huge risk.
@@smoocifilms6169 thanks, I get that but no sign of a hose reel of larger branch in site. We always had water on as the ladder went up.
I thought firefighters used wooden ladders. It wouldn't take much heat to collapse an aluminum ladder.
wood is also flammable
@@dietcoke759 Yes. wood is flammable, but it maintains the strength of the unburned wood even as the outer part burns. Aluminum loses all its strength at once when it reaches its rather low melting point. That’s why most fire trucks used to have only have wooden ladders. Also, wood is a poor conductor of electricity. A fireman’s ladder might easily come in contact with overhead lateral electrical conductors while fighting a fire. You wouldn’t want to carrying an aluminum ladder if that happens.
San Francisco fire dept uses wooden ladders... the only dept that i know of that does... and mainly for the electrical issues you mentioned
They chop the whole bigger, use no water, what did they think was going to happen?
Muppetry.
Why, why do they cut open the roof and not have a jet with them??? Basic firemanship.
Bravo and props boys. That was a close one. Respect.
So they put a hole in the roof to give the fire more air.....
No you vent to remove heat and smoke, as hot air rises and with smoke being unburned material in the air it follows the airflow. Without trying to second guess this incident commander it looked like they were trying to vent a very "hot" fire to get heat out of the building.
Brave yes but also utterly idiotic to trust the edge of the roof to hold your weight like that.
When you send 3-4 guys get on the rooftop take about 5-10mins destroy the roof ....instead using that time to spray the water inside the house...with the water pressure can spray more than 50ft away
Venting.
Let it burn just contain it and stop it spreading
I can just imagine how many idiots are tugging it right now!
This ladder and roof operation is challenging in street clothes let alone complete turnout gear tbut hey did very well however the odds are on the side of them falling. Maybe these guys side job was as roofers.
Now I know why they call them a firefighter....instead using water to putouts fire ...lol...what they just did to make your house burn faster....basics logic the air go in the door or windows and escape to rooftop
Anyone could please explain why????...every time the house or building on fire they don’t spraying waters...they just go on rooftops and try to destroy your house or building...why what how it’s doesn’t make sense
If you can't see inside due to blistering hot thick smoke, best way to get rid of it is to make a vent hole in the roof. Smoke clears, temperature drops, easier to get in and quench the fire.
That last dude to come down is an animal. To be standing on the edge of that steep ass roof wearing all of that protective gear and manhandling a section of ladder that was impressive
Stop playing last man off the roof. Being heroic is not what the job calls for. Being professional means every man off the roof pronto. Not every house is worth saving. Too many firefighters have suffered injuries or lost their lives due to poor decisions in situations similar to this. No heroes please.
"you go we go"
GET THE WET STUFF ON THE HOT STUFF.
Horrible ladder work.
Iam not a fireman but I can’t tell this just plain dangerous to be on a roof during a fire!? Cave in is eminent, and or to fall thru a weakened roof into a blazing inferno. Not sure what the pros say but this just seems all wrong....
i am not an expert either, but i do know a little. what they’re doing is vertical ventilation, they cut a hole in the roof to help control the fire and ventilate the structure from smoke so that the conditions are safer and more manageable for the firefighters going inside to attack the fire efficiently. what they’re doing is normal and quite common, but in this situation, conditions may not have been as closely monitored has they should have, or it was just an unexpected growth of the fire that they had no control over, so they adapted their plan and got off the roof. hope that helps
What is the need to open up the roof??? Is it to feed the fire with more oxygen?? To expose fire men to high risk or what??
Opening up the roof makes conditions better for the interior attack crews by letting heat and smoke escape from the structure.
The new "Houston, we have a problem".
