This is pretty amazing, My oldest brother is a fire fighter in Az. I never realized they had to use those saws to cut the bars of the doors & windows...
@@football-ish9313 There's no reason to be on that roof though. The fire has already self ventilated through the windows. This is nothing more than "California boys" being "California boys"
@@justanotherguy1110 If the roof is sound then vertical ventilation is so much better in every situation. I would rather have the heat/smoke going straight up and out of the structure, not rolling out windows over the firefighter's heads. again this is only if the roof is sound. If that roof is sound than what they did is exactly what should be done.
@@onthewater4189 No, I'm just a major proponent of getting fast water in the fire. I've never been a fan of how some of these departments (LA for example) operate. Once water goes on the fire, & it goes out..everything gets better.
@@andyoxleyonhistravels You never see the fire through the roof. If you can release the smoke and heat for inter interior attack, that’s what truck companies do. And you have no idea from this video if anything flashed.
@@cac90277 Its flashed out the whole of the front and vented so the heat and any flammable gases are being released. Horizontal ventilation has the same effect as getting on the roof and you don't put the firefighters at risk by going up there then falling through. You can see everything inside by using a thermal camera. You guys are obsessed with climbing on roofs when there is no need.
@@andyoxleyonhistravels I appreciate where you are coming from. I don’t work for the city. We don’t run to the roof either. It all kind of depends on how long its been burning too. Sound the roof, look for watch out signs and cut a hole and get off. We use horizontal ventilation when the fire is in one area (not fully involved) or are removing smoke. This thing looks very well involved so it’s really up to the IC and the roof division to access the roof. But you should go up and take a look at it before saying no way because how much ventilation helps interior attack and and life inside. But I agree, I don’t want to go to the roof unless everything looks good.
Love watching truck guy's do truck stuff like their suppose too
For thos e of you that are not familiar with circular saws, they are not a light piece of equipment, especially holding them over your head.
They have to strong and mighty in the Lord to do what they are doing!🙏

It must be so nice to live in a city where you have to have bars on your home and businesses.
Keep catering to criminals and this is what you get.
Awesome coverage of this incident! Great job LAFD 👍
Just a heads up it is LACoFd not LAFD this incident was in Lancaster
Negative. LA City FD all the way. TF-33 South L.A.
Wow great footage thanks to our heros🚒💜🦮🐕🐓🥑😇❄🌻🌲🐈🚒
All they have is 1 inch and 3/4 line stretched and charged. The line to the he roof is not charged??
2:21, anyone know what the small explosion inside was?
Running a saw without eye protection is a cardinal sin.
Great job on your video
Is a task force like a battalion or a division?
Light force (engine + truck) + engine
@@310fire There is actually 2 BC 5 Engines 2 quints and a squad
I can not fathom living where you must bar windows! Good job F/F!
Haha ur love Jesus to bad it's not mutual
@@joeburros4878 😂😂😂 oh but it is!
Who is removing my comment and why?
Why go to the roof? If you fall in, with bars like that, that's a death sentence.
They go on the roof to ventilate the building. Letting all of the smoke help the firefighters inside to be able to see easily

@@keithhopkins3566 We can agree to disagree. I will say there's a time & a place for it, but It's definitely overused on the west side
@@justanotherguy1110 You are absolutely correct.

I guess stretching with the pumper and getting water on the fire quickly is too old school for these New Age people.
Only for certain departments. For some, cutting holes with saws is the "new way" to put out fires. Forget putting water on it.

Those axes look like they’d get annoying after about 25 seconds of them being on your belt….
Sometimes, but it is nice to have with you and have both hands free.
Total waste of time and just get in the way.
Looks like a paisa-owned business...tons of wrought iron all over the building.
😢😪💔🙏💛💜
Why go on the roof?
Fire has already vented and is coming out of pretty much every window and the fire is right under their feet. Pointless.
Release heat & smoke for eased interior fire attack
@@310fire Fire has already vented and flashed over from every window. Absolutely now need to endanger firefighters for no benefit.
