    This may be your best coverage yet. Great video of the firefighters at work like a smooth running army, the curious spectators, the nearby traffic on the freeway, the NY skyline, the news reporters, concerned citizens, the spaghetti pile of hose lines, the devastation of the businesses...you caught it all and gave me the feeling that I was actually there...(except for the smoke--I don't need that.) Thank you!

    I was interested in getting a better look at the two very old red brick apartment buildings next to the fire buildings so I did a Google search. Most of the surrounding buildings in the immediate area are of very old construction too. The area seems to hold a lot of history with some interesting old architecture. Those old wood constructed buildings housing the businesses, each one connected to the other, didn't have a chance of surviving the fire. You and Skyler did a great job of filming, as usual. Great job as always by the FDNY.

    Spectacular coverage, JJ of a vicious fire in a unique Brooklyn neighborhood, Williamsburg. Not too far from where I attended Pratt Institute in Brooklyn in 1956-1960. I am so happy you mentioned our Hasidic community brothers who have been a part of this community for so many years. FDNY in an all out attack on this fire. Thanks so much!

    Miss the days when you could smell it before you even got there. Everyone amped it up a notch and we did our thing. Sounds bad to a non firefighter, but we had a lot of good fires where everyone got to go in and “play” Of course it was working, but to us it really did not feel like work.

      For some reason I was thinking about that. Never a firefighter but worked for a large gas utility in MASS. As a kid 70s the local FD was treated like the unwanted kid. Financially cut to the bone but major fires weekly and the great Lynn fire 1982 wiped out blocks of old factories up to 8flrs of oil soaked wooden floors.

    Hi JJ. Cockloft fires are tough to put out. They have to pull ceilings, but when you have abandoned the stores, you pretty much have to wait till it burns thru the roof. Then it collapses down and burns. It's easier to put out. All 9 stores shared the same roof. No basements, just a utility room for all 9 stores under 1 store. Like they say, don't trust the truss roof. Thanks for video.

    Excellent, excellent video, John! You caught all of it and then some. Great angles and great work showing the whole operation and its fringe edges. That one didn't want to stop. It ran the whole length and didn't stop til it reached the other end. That says a lot for fire walls between individual businesses but from the looks of things, I don't know if THOSE would even have stopped this one. Lot of tired firefighters and, I'm sure, the videographer, too.
    Fantastic job, John. Stay safe out there, my friend.

    Great catch. Once again I will comment with a little FDNY history. You made a comment about the amount of hose on the street . Back before the days of satellite hose and the super pumper, three to four parallel stretches of 2 1/2 hose would be used instead of satellite hose today. So at a incident like this you may hav seen 3 to 4 times the amount of hose. So much hose that engine carried hose tags. A tag would be attached at the nozzle or appliance where water was being applied to the fire and a matching tag was attached at the supply engine discharge. The tags would have the engine co. Number on them and a number so the chauffeur would know what discharge the line was fed by. In the mass of hose the nozzle team would know exactly who to contact about their water supply.

      @@THEMAJESTIRIUM1 I grew up to be a FF(not FDNY). I lived in Bergenfield NJ. and did my buffing there and in NYC. Since I was a kid I had to take public transportation to get to jobs in the city. So when I was not visiting FDNY houses where i could ride with them sometimes ( don’t know if that was legal by department regulations then). But I knew the chiefs that would look the other way I guess. I had desk top radios some for FDNY and some for Bergen county departments. Unfortunately the technology was not there for hand held portable scanners of today. If wasn’t already in the city I had to take transportation to the scene so I went to only the biggest incidents so I could have time to get there. But I Bergen county I was able to get to some more routine jobs like you do. The FDNY has always treated their true buff’s well as they do you now. I was recognized by Chief of Department John O Hagen once. I visited many houses and the training center when it was o Roosevelt island. The FDNY also had a TV program called “on the job “ that was produced at the training center and broadcast two times a week on channel 31(WNYC). This was real FDNY training. It was required watching in FDNY houses. Many other departments within the broadcast range of the Empire State Building used it also in their training programs. This was also a great way for Buffs to really understand what was going on at incident sites. I do truly understand what you do and why you do it. I do truly enjoy you using modern technology along with Skyler to bring the art of buffing to the masses. Keep up the good work and stay safe my friend.

    This fire was a lot of work and it's a shame they couldn't have saved some of those stores. It sure wasn't from the lack of effort on the part of the FDNY. Those guys gave it their all. It's just a crying shame they didn't get much in return for their hard work.
    I always took pride in saving anything we could save. I pulled up on a fire once, and saw off duty firefighters from another department moving out a few pieces of furniture and a grandfather clock.

      I suspect they were being hit by the water stream from a tower ladder. The stream is very strong, I’ve seen it remove siding from a building! You definitely don’t want to be hit by it.

    Excellent coverage as always! FDNY took a beating but they did their best. Common cockloft fires are the worst, perfect example of why building codes exist, firewalls minimize losses. Was there a thunderstorm in the area when this happened?? ⚡⚡ 🤔 I pray they all had good insurance, this is really sad to see. Hope all FDNY injuries are minimal, glad no serious injuries, this really sucks. I think they need more buses - WTF was this some kind of field trip???

    Hi, thanks for another video of the fireman's nightmare: a taxpayer fire! I reckon only some industrial fires are worse than that!
    Anyway, this fire again matches the quality of previous taxpayer fires we could watch on this channel: a large number of businesses burning simultaneously, with a high fireload, no firewalls, and a fire escalating in minutes!
    This scenario is accompanied by a very clear radio communication, with this distinctive NY accent🙂!

    • @suesmith5746
      @suesmith5746 Рік тому

      All the older building are "grandfathered" in. When they rebuild they will have to meet current codes.Where I live only update needed on a 120 yr old building was ground fault outlets in bath and kitchen and laundry. The 80 yr old tube and spool wiring was ok. No one could afford to update an old building it would cost less to tear it down and build a new one. What are the customers going to do during that 2-3 yr period, extra time for all the permits and paper work. Also someone who does business in a small store like those can't afford to be closed for that long. They also probably only have insurance for the original cost not rebuild in todays market, costs would be at 3 to 4 times higher maybe a lot more.

      Yeah I understand about the ads. But I believe he does better from you tube if ads are watched. Therefore I will watch some of the ads to help in defray the cost of doing what he does for us. That being said think it goes a little too far sometimes when the ads take up more time than the entire video. I’ll hit skip ad when they are obnoxiously long ( one as long as 15 minutes).That’s kind of ridiculous to expect any one to delay any one’s content that long.

    WOW my dude! The dawg days of summer bring no relief. Something that was interesting was when you said that it had to be devastating to the community. I had just thought that less than a minute before. And it appearing to be a Jewish community really adds to it, because know that they have to do things a certain way to keep Kosher. They just go to some other store and expect to find what they need. Prayers go out to them for a quick rebuild!
    At right around 0:47:00 I noticed one of the hand lines throwing some brownish water. Was that a river tap or just a rusty main?
    I hope things are working out for the Fire Commissioner. I heard things were a little touch and go in the beginning. I hope things have settled down a bit and get better. From her smirk, I can also see that she doesn't mind being on camera. LOL! Nice shooting my friend and I really appreciate you sticking it out to see the smoke clear. Cooler days are coming.

      They make water proof shoes and ankle high boots in all colors and styles. Try Lands End, Colombia, LL Bean, REI, New England Sporting Goods etc. I was a rural letter carrier for 27 yrs and have 7 pairs of totally water proof shoes ones for winter and summer, dressy ones and really rugged ones. They are a little expensive, but I have been retired for 10 yrs and have 4 pair I still wear all the time, they are also very comfortable for walking or standing on cement for hours.
