Of all the house fire scenes I've looked at on you tube, this crew was easily the fastest American crew to get water on a fire and get inside. Excellent hustle with the hoses, and they were all mostly suited up, and didn't have to spent two minutes at the door getting dressed. I'd want these guys if my house was on fire.
Jj Argus you can't always do that though because pro firefighters look first it's already destroyed with smoke damage,and rushing in like these guys did a backdraft could be about to explode from opening doors or windows.
Very well run incident, it looks like everyone knew what their job was when they arrived on scene and got right on it. No freelancing or delays in getting water to the fire. More departments need to operate this way
Now that's my version of "poetry in motion!", fantastic job guys! Really shows that this Dept. is top notch and trains often and effectively. Nice rig placement, good plan on water supply, foresight for Ladder placement, nice hoseline operations and most importantly GREAT COMMUNICATION!! Well done and continue to stay safe out there!
Very good crew who knew procedures and protocols. The first due engine crew knew exactly what to do and worked well together. No delay in the initial entry and knockdown. Ladder company did exactly what was needed upon arrival. Nice to see firefighting at its best.
These guys showed some urgency. They were geared up when arriving and had water on the fire within minutes! Excellent work men! I can only hope our fire dept is as good as you guys
Great job!!! Like, I know....I'm no Fireman. But, it looked as if everyone knew what to do, were acting urgent, and got that fire under control quickly! I've watched a few videos, and everyone walks around...almost move in slow motion as the house burns completely up! But, if I was the owner of this house I'd be singing the praises of these hardworking, professional first responders!! KUDOS!!!
These fire fighters are a credit to the service and themselves. We see so many videos on UA-cam of languid action and tend to expect it to be the norm in that country. They restore faith in the service, but why can`t all firefighters have such a sense of urgency and professionalism ?
Did this crew come from another planet, these people easily put all other American crews to shame. No one standing around doing nothing. Men actually running towards the fire. Plans being made before getting to the fire. No waiting ages for water to be pumped in. This crew made for a refreshing change and they went a hell of a long way to bring back my faith in the American emergency services. Well done to you all. You should go forth and teach all other crews how it should be done
Couldn't have said it better! Here's a crew acting like it's actually important to get some water on a fire ASAP!! Great hustle, great work. That's a crew I want in my neighborhood!
+Arwel Roberts Arwel. I have worked with crews like this for 29 years. Think about it, the only fires that make it to youtube are the ones that have gone to hell, or get knocked out like this one. Cheers from Texas.
You obviously have not been around much. I would venture to say most career fire departments are highly motivated and competent. You may have some bad apples as is expected in any department, but they would not be the norm. I cannot speak for part time or volunteer departments as I have not worked for or with any.
@@Incindio13 This is my Fire Fighting Stupidity file. I Just started it but it is already filling up. Buckle down and watch American fire playing at it's best. ua-cam.com/play/PLkp0E1ao1XEzisVYZe0IOkO6ZtHzMKoe6.html
@@Incindio13 Do yourself a favor, don't waste your time on JB's comments or his playlists. He is a washed-up volly from the 70's who has been bashing departments for 10 years on here.
I agree! It is really great to see fire crew coming off engine pulling not one, but two lines in first thing. No one walked, no one stood around, they went to work! On arrival the B\C exposure seemed to be well involved. Lionville FD did this one right!
Chopping wood and carrying water... the folks in this show make it look easy. Seems like older construction so I'm curious about the contents- figuring this started about 7-10 minutes after the fire started and it hadn't poked a hole out somewhere. Excellent, efficient and safe response from what I can see. Well done!
Most fire departments would have lost this house. These guys had organization, hustle, and savvy. Of all viewed, only one of two YT clips to get an A+ so far.
These, guys did their job well. Not to diminish what they did because we all know the chaos of some depts. on even the simplest fires, but this fire is actually very basic. Perfect conditions, daytime, dry, temperate etc. Easy access to the structure, fire location known upon arrival, and it's a relatively small house. Text book room and contents fire, at least from what we can see in the video. They did everything right in my opinion and their approach to putting out a fire like this is exactly how my department operates. Quick size up, stretch a line, mask up, call for water, aggressively put it out. 95% of fires like this can be handled pretty easily with a crew that knows what to do, like this one does. Wish every fire could be like this one. Where I live it seems like structure fires only happen when it's 20 degrees or 90 degrees lol.
What a textbook fire scene! great work! Every firefighter on scene had PPE, and knew his, or her role! Backup/safety line stretched, and escape ladders to the second floor very quickly, and a great knockdown! Very well trained and disciplined Fire dept. Awesome job!! Adding to favorites!
Good job. Most scenes on this site show house fires that are almost fully involved before the first company shows up. Many times they are volunteers or part time firefighters and a lot of people that don't know much about fire or firefighting make derogatory comments towards the firefighters. They showed up in this video with a full crew of 4 or 5 firefighters on that engine company. A rare sight on medium and small departments.
This was one of the first videos in my Fire Fighting Good folder. After 12 years of watching these videos, there aren't many in there but the Fire Fighting Bad folder would keep you busy for years!
There's hundreds of fire videos on UA-cam. Most have many comments that are derogatory, some earned, most unearned. Here, we have a crew that, from the time they stop their rig, puts water on a second floor interior fire in almost exactly TWO MINUTES!!! And at the THREE MINUTE mark, they are steaming the attic!!! Sadly, the house is probably not livable without a financially catastrophic "makeover", but that's not the fault of Engine 47-2. This should be a training film for other departments.
The key to the success was what happened before arrival of this engine...the walkaround and communication with the first arriving engine as to what to expect and how to deploy. Also great communication within the crew to understand their duties upon arrival. Practice and communication make it work.
These are the videos I love, Within 15 seconds of being on scene hose is stretched to the door, within 90 seconds the line is charged and an interior attack is made, Fire under control and damage to property minimized. very nice.
Man, witnessing something like this up close and personal is a very scary thing. this morning i was waken up @ 7:20 by fire trucks blaring down my street, responding to a 2 story vacant apartment building on fire right across the street from me. After they got it out and did the overhaul, a guy came to board up the windows and i had to call them back bc i noticed light smoke coming from the roof. The wierd thing is that exactly 2 months ago, the house right next door to it caught on fire too.
I love Professionals who know themselves well and know what jobs they are doing. These are important no matter where and when they are. If lives are jeopardized, we trusted Professionals who are clear minded and braved.
Too bad the FDNY doesn't Learn from watching a Good Work Ethic in action. Being that the FDNY is one of the worst fire departments in the world and the videos prove it so don't try to deflect.
JB91710 This is JB everyone. JB wasnt able to pass the FDNY physical back in the 60s. JB then moved to CT where he became a volunteer for 10 years until he was arrested for stealing money from the department. JB now builds race cars, knows nothing about firefighting tactics, resentful of the FDNY for not passing his out of shape self, and makes negative comments on anything the FDNY does. He’s a coward and pathetic. Don’t be like JB.
@@BIGDROC99 Do you have any idea how immature that comment was? Ever hear the word Deflecting? You can't talk tactics with me so you have to steer people away from the subject. That's Real sad Mikey. Your mother would be so proud.
That was a great job not like other videos where it takes them 10 - 30 minutes to even get water on the fire this is the only fight apartment that I seen on UA-cam put the fire out so quick everyone else sucks excellent job
If the job gets done fast and the video is boring, then the fire department was probably doing it correctly. This was one of the most "Boring" fire videos I have seen in 7 years. ;-)
I know these guys jumped off the truck and said Hold our beers we got this. Outstanding job on saving this house and most of the owners belongings. Support your local fire and police.
Nice job. Good to see emphasis placed on stretching line and extinguishing fire vs. putting multiple members on roof accomplishing next to nothing with saws. Nothing against ventilation but hoseline should always come first. Line in operation, backup line in place, then they started looking at ventilation. Unless you have a large urban department, it's hard to accomplish both right off the bat. Multiple portable ladders placed for possible emergency egress by members. Again, well done.
Judging only by the color and density of the smoke at 3:30, this crew had water on the fire in less than 60 seconds from the point of entry. Great work. I only wish I could have heard the initial scene size-up.
(continued from last comment) With both fires, Our fire department knocked it out in a matter of minutes before it had a chance to become well involved (except for the small hot spot that somehow skipped the 2nd floor & made it to the inside of the roof & had to call them back again) The fire 2 months ago was on the 2nd floor & they got it before it had a chance to flash over, but 2 months later and theyre still fixing the damage. Even a small fire like these 2 can still be really destructive.
First of all, great job. Second of all, very good video. With all the information given here, i managed to locate the residence on Google maps. Even the red car is clearly visible on the photo. It looked great. Once agian, great job.
Amazing. This crew got lines in and knocked fire down in minutes. Most US crews just stand around trying to look cool watching it burn for 15 mins and then just spray the odd hose when it's a total loss.
One of the best fire videos I've seen. A little of the response and a great view of the entire operation. Oh, and you did a stellar job of putting the fire out too!!!! I hope you can take more videos like this. PS where's Rachko, hiding?
when i was a fire fight in flowings wells fire dept in 1969 in tucson az we had a small truck that was called a tack truck must of the time it was the first at the fire and was the first to put water on the fire with in 15 minutes of the fire there was no playing around one man grabed the hose the other started the pump and water was on the fire
The first view of the attack crew hustling their line towards the house told me that this was a rural volunteer dept. So I paused the vid and googled Lionville Fire Co. and sure enough.
its nice to see a fire dept that works fast and safe plus all u guys had u PPE and SCBA...you'd be suprised at the number of dept's that dont follow s.o.p

Jason Bourne. this will be the Bourne Ultimatum then ..😃😅😅
I didn't see the first responders checking to see that everyone was out of the house.
Jj Don't hold your breath while looking for another one.

Amen to That
By far, the best response I have ever seen ! hats off to the Lionville Bravest !
One of the best knock down I have seen. You can tell they train hard as a team. Very well done lads.
Great to see them run! Just about the best US fire fighters I've seen, they really moved, no standing around or walking with a hose. Great job.
The absolute BEST performance from a FD i have seen on the internet or in my Firefighter career ,,,Bravo !!

Outstanding engine work, good hustle
Very nice job. Off the truck in a flash geared up and ready to fight fire!

Thank you 🔥 fighters for saving my life 😭

awesome footage
Hey, these guys are fast and they ran.....Good Job
A pleasure to watch---firefighting thoroughbreds!!
@wyleek09 I'm guessing those are the owners in the driveway at 0:54 with a few things they managed to save.
Did they lose everything? What caused it
why would he pull that hose right behind the cars? wouldn't it get stuck, when the hose fills up?
GREAT JOB BY PROFESSIONALS!!
These guys are good. Nice hit. Nice save.
