Directly across the street from Pepperdine University along the PCH. Smokeaters got nailed with that first water drop, but dude kept on smiling and working away! Great demeanor!
That was Pepperdine University reclaimed poop water in the pilots defense he was fighting an extremely strong headwind they lost two homes down below on Malibu Road
True warriors in battle that wind is wild trying to fight that shit with that wind damn it guys prayers to you fire fighters out there no one knows what that fight is like great video
They do NOT fill from "swamps", but very likely a "water hazard" from a local golf course. But to be honest, some "reservoirs" just have nasty stuff in them.
@@SirishShrestha-w6z The peak wind gust in the entire region was Fremont Canyon in the Santa Ana mountains (hence the name Santa Ana winds) in Orange County at 77mph. Malibu never saw anything above 50.
Bravo 69 has four filling stations ('pumpkins') that can fill simultaneously. They have an interesting website. These two filling together made a beautiful picture.
@@akitas8165 you obviously don't understand physics and heavy winds, on a coastal bluff. come on now. im fostering and about to adopt a dog that was lost in the fire and abandoned. A pilot missed, and a stranger helped a dog. What the hell have you done?
If it was all water with no debris it would have blown onto the fire. I recon pilot has no way of knowing other than weight that there is debris in the water.
Why is it I have 1 man in a 40,000L 6X6 articulated water cart on most large construction sites for dust suppression and compaction and when its a fire emergency its all man power hands and hoses. Is it because industry just dose it bigger, better, faster, cheaper and fire departments stem from government Bureaucracy?
🤢BLACK WATER. When you see water being dropped and it is not clear but BLACK like that, it means it was taken from most likely a golf coarse pond or something similar. That is stinky, smelly duck poop water that was sucked up from the bottom of the pond.
@@billsmith5109 Fires don't just spontaneously start. They have to have a spark somehow. Roughly 50% of the time its homeless caused, followed by powerlines, then vehicles, then arson. Homeless can also be considered arson if its purposely set (which often times it is)
It started with jet black smoke fire looked kinda like burning tires giant plumes smoke then blew everywhere and burned.From the earlier chopper view looked like a pile of something non organic was lit.
Holy crap.....what a direct hit on the crew and the engine... and they kept on advancing the hose lines. That was crazzzzzzy!
Bro took it like a champ and kept at it. What a boss!
Did you see the smile on his face after he took the hit!! LOL
Oh, wow, he got hit with some nasty stuff, there!
Nice seeing your videos, again, Leo!
Absolutely incredible footage. Those drops and both the firehawks refilling was superb.
Thank you very much!
Some of that quality CA water I see
Water from the Colorado ain’t that clean no more
Wow incredible Footage! Aww the little mouse at 0:59 must’ve been so spooked.

Well that was a fail on the water drop
Nah, they needed a cooldown!😂😂😂
He bricked it big time like she shooting a free throw
Looked more like mud.
Wind gust blew the helicopter off course!
This is why it pays off to play video games
EXTREMELY awesome catch!
0:59 that little mouse or whatever animal that is it's so cute
Is that Alabama/Arkansas swamp water!? Amazing footage!
@@leaveit2beemr685 Malibu, CA
Up from the ground come a bubbling crude. Oil that is. Black gold. Ask Uncle Jed.
Great action shots, well done!
Thanks

That was a crazy fire. Keep it up.
Where did that helicopter get that 'water'? Its friggin MUD!

@kb6kgx that qualified as nasty.
@@marksellinger3736 most certainly.
Mud works.
nice drop bro.... spot on
Was the helicopter pilot aiming for the firefighters? Great footage, and a huge thank you to the folks on the ground risking the health!💖
Great aim .......
what is the cost of this VS building a cinderblock wall around the utility ?
looks like swamp water😳
Man! He just finished washing the rig.
Damn! My kids have played on those slides 😮
What did he get hit with?
Great JOB besafe....🚒
"Up from the ground come a bubblin' crude. Oil that is."
True heroes. 🙏
That's awesome to stay in the fight covered in pond mud!!😮
That was the absolute fail on the water drop.Someone needs to tell him he's supposed to put the fire out.Not the fire fighters and the rig
But how this fire came here
Pretty sure he knows that internet warrior. Judging from the video they're fighting a hell of a wind. From what I've heard they are badass Heli pilots
@danielr3933 winds are 80mph
@@danielr3933 That drop was ten business days late🤣

Bad ass- also couldn’t have had a grosser water drop
Rat be like hey dude help me
Firefighters are heroes...
I was on a school trip in sycamore and we had to leave early because of this fire
What's there I'm sycamore, beach or hiking
Why is the “hit” not downwind?
Oh no, the helicopter did the ground crew dirty.
All jokes aside, amazed their firefighting efforts in those wind conditions.
I would have been PISSED
"Old black water, keep on rollin'..."
What a pxxx poor water drop
Got mud?
Epic drop!!
Why was the water black
When the helicopter's snorkel sucks the water from the bottom of a shallow pond it picks up whatever muck settles to the bottom of that pond.
Probably best not to think of what might be in that. Suffice it to say, the firefighter definitely needed a "decon" afterwards.
that wind is huge problem. Looked like choppers were trying to play it.
Yo why's the water black? Did they pick it up from a sewage treatment plant?
Somebody got some Ice cream to buy, and a free stop at the laundromat!
Probably protecting the engine and it's crew
Is Pepperdine evacuated?
I doubt it. That campus was built as a 'shelter in place'.
Is that Pepperdine?
Yes
brutal ............
Imagine having one job to do......
Figured Pepperdine would use avian to put out the fire
I'm afraid to ask where they filled up lol
Friendly Fire...extinguisher
Every year
What’s the black crap the choppers drop on firefighters?
It really does pay to play video games
The two Helis refilling at the same time is such a badass LAcoFD thing to see. You don't see that in any other Department in the Country
Bravo 69 has four filling stations ('pumpkins') that can fill simultaneously. They have an interesting website. These two filling together made a beautiful picture.
Fairly common sight in San Diego as well, both SDFD and SD County Sheriff.
I'm having t-shirts made that say Black Slurry Matters 🕺
All have a right to live😊
thats a friends father in law flying the helo. super sick
He needs to find a new line of work. He hit everything but the fire. Pathetic.
@@akitas8165 you obviously don't understand physics and heavy winds, on a coastal bluff. come on now. im fostering and about to adopt a dog that was lost in the fire and abandoned. A pilot missed, and a stranger helped a dog. What the hell have you done?
That water was disgusting, I sure that guy is still trying to scrub that smell off :)
Karma is a beautiful thing.
what sewage facility they getting this water from damn
Real estate agents hire goons to start fires because people refuse to sell their property
If it was all water with no debris it would have blown onto the fire. I recon pilot has no way of knowing other than weight that there is debris in the water.
Don’t know what they get paid, but I hope its good 👍
Ein wenig am Ziel vorbei xD
Big rat jumping through the flames at 0:01
Look Like they're dumping oil
Talk about “couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn”……no wonder California fires burn so long with pilots like that one
Air drops on crews, not good.

Can we say fail.
DEI HELICOPTER PILOT
哇哦，我的天呐！
Ahora entiendo los incendio y como se podría evitar pero como los Arrogante creen saber que apagen
The drop was released too late
Really? 🤓
Don't pay any attention to the Moron😁
LOL!

0:01 poor animal running for its life (right to left corner of vid) looks like a rat?
who was flying?
bad heli drivers ngl
rats!
Looks like arson to me. How can it be anything else?
Homeless camp
Evidence? I see a well established fire. How have you ascertained the point of origin?
