Those Man prime movers are a serious bit of kit, involved with servicing a pair of them when I worked for a main dealer. Two alternators, four batteries , air suspension all round. The communications equipment looked like it could run a medium sized radio station. Interesting that where possible they weren't based in a high risk area. Theory being that in the event of a major incident they were less likely to damaged and therefore able to respond.
One of the padstones it was erected on collapsed. It had just been finished being erected. The tower crane erectors were up on the crane still as it came down. One of the head injuries was one of those guys. I believe he’s still in a bad way. 😩 good footage mind 👍🏻
When the UK government first bought those New Dimensions M.A.N. Prime Movers back in 2004 I knew they were gonna be too big for our streets, especially those in the capital and our other congested cities. And man did they struggle to get through the streets of Bow on this day. Class video though. Awesome response, and such a terrible incident.
@@FirePhotos Yeah but London is not just the only congested city in the UK. Drive rounds the back streets of Stoke-on-Trent (in my county) and you'll struggle to get a a Toyoto Yaris through!
Wow that's good job you have time with the. Fire truck here is so cool ilke venchies so much thank you firefighters here put the firefighter 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Happened couple weeks ago, one woman killed in her home, they never fixed the crane base to any stable ground and the weights weren't even bolted on.... The ground wasn't prepared or re-enforced and they used tiny pins not suitable for use with a crane of that weight.., absolutely crazy, nobody needed to die but this is what cutbacks looks like...
5:23 is that a police officer in the road? Why did he directed the car to stop there? If the car had moved on a bit it would have been much easier for the fire truck to get through. Why make it extra difficult for them and not let car drivers make a right decission on their own? Do they know yet WHY the crane collapsed? Great on scene coverage with all your clips!
The New Dimension USAR kit is looking a bit unloved and faded. You can tell they keep them outside all year. But then 16 years old so...Great footage btw
It seems to me that different cities including London need a specialist emergency rescue group, a fourth emergency group as it were after Fire, Police and Ambulance. All of these firefighters and their appliances and no fire, what happens if there is a large fire that needs attending to?
Still think that’s bullshit. Yes they could be quicker to change strategy, but shelter in place is always always always the advice and strategy. Council and builders hold the blame in my opinion.
Fire photos didn't go inside the cordon. If there's a major incident, gravitate towards where the any specialist or rarely-seen vehicles are heading. About the names of the vehicles, they're pretty easy to remember. Wikipedia and Flickr provide a good start for research. You don't need to be a spotter, just an enthusiast.
@@williamwelch4846 No, spotters aren't necessarily emergency services workers. Some people have unusual interests, and the Internet is the best place to find other with the same interests as you. I'm a teenager and I love emergency services although nobody in my school shares the same interest. (due to corona I can't go and spot in my country).
The truck at about 41s almost has a good warning lighting design: if only the individual lights flashed in an inside to outside bi-lateral symmetry; in synch with the grille and side warning lights; then the observer could easily and quickly identify the vehicle and its direction and rate of movement in a crowded road environment.
5:28 why is the cop so angry? Thr car was clearly trying to make it easier for the fire truck to get by🤦♂️ and the finger pointing might’ve had him think he wanted him to pull over abit 🤦♂️ wanker
Because when a cop signals you multiple times to stop, you don´t drive. Even if you try to make it easier for the firetruck to pass by, the cop has a better eye on the situation than you in the car have.
SaveLive TV he just seemed like abit of a wanker the way he went about it and that car moving an inch or 2 to the left could’ve been the difference between the fire truck getting past or not
Didn’t know the LFB had dune buggies like the HART TEAM and skips, very impressive, long gone are the days of horse and cart and a bucket and hose and simple rescue equipment, it’s all now buggies and heavy machinery, bet you need a degree once past training to operate vast machinery of today’s fire fighting equipment
No kidding. Mind you at least the Met still wear shirts and proper hats. Round here it's black bomber jackets and bump baseball caps, they look like dishevelled car park attendants!!
Why the F did the police not shut down that roundabout on Devons Road. Too much civvy traffic is being allowed in there..... civvies are stupid, they do not realise that lots of fire engines means "don't follow me down this road". Roads should have been shut down quicker.
sorry, but what is it with uk. If I am in a building that is on fire, I do not care whether the fire 'person' who arrives is white, black, browm, yellow, male, female, or don't know. I just hope that they know what they are doing, have all the equipment and training that they need. and do not give a toss if they have had diversity etc training. uk has gone to the dogs, no disrespect to the the foot soldiers, but management is too bothered about figures etc, and I worry that the result will be lives lost, both civilian, and firefighters. total respect to the men and women who risk their lives to save ours, but too many jobs worths in the upper levels.
The wrecked crane was probably more valuable than the crappy timber framed sheds they were building. Nothing is built to last these days, cheap and nasty and built in 5 minutes.
The cars are their own - commanders, senior fire officers - and they receive an essential user allowance for them. The lights, radios, and sirens are installed and paid for by the Fire Service.
For me after a devastating occurrence there's overkill by the fire service. Then the police turn up in hoards and stand around doing nothing. I guess Grenfell was on their bosses' minds.
It collapsed an was unstable - fire service need to stabilise it to avoid further collapse and injury. This is a crime scene and a massive one at that, so that’s the large police turn out.
The k9 search handler badge is written in comic sans... so disrespectful. I bet he's tryin to do his job and everyone else is like "ay comic sans he's over ere!" Lmao
Clown!!! Because the camera was outside of the cordon, the most you saw was the part of the collapsed crane on the apartment block under construction. Around the back was the row of houses where the actual work was being carried out to try to rescue and recover, inside the cordon where the public, including the cameraman would not have had access.
what do you expect? The camera guy walking right through the scene and obstructing emergency crews and their work there? Of course you'll only see walking and talking at the edge of the scene ...
@@findthebadger418 way too small for our purpose using them as emergency doctor car; Couldn't even fit the standard equipment properly, let alone additional personal equipment
Watching these sort of videos these days there seem to be numerous bods walking about, some with clipboards and pens. Have the emergency services become populated with pen-pushing incident managers on site?
Well, damn. 😳 Some very impressive equipment in use. Good coverage of both scene and USAR responses. Great shame about the deceased, may they RIP.
Yes it’s very tragic isn’t it, very interesting and complex operation undertaken by the Fire service.
Britain's fire service must be one of the best in the world, the multitude of skills and equipment in use to do every verity of rescue in unreal.
Ultimate respect to our Fire and Rescue personnel. So sad someone has lost their life. ❤ RIP ❤

Don't hear two tones often these days. Used to hear them all the time back in the early 00's.
I grew up hearing only the two-tones, hence why I still tend to say "nee-narr" when describing the sound of a siren lol :) I miss that sound!!
SO 😵

A well made video. It was interesting to see the FRU from my local station (Croydon) attending. The crew are USAR trained.
Thank you for your kind comment, yes in some of the FRU’s you can see their USAR kit in the back.

The police men at 26 min doing his best ti get the LFR lorry through while the motorist just sat there!
Policemen driving around in BMWs, Mercs and Audis...impressive.
in parts of Europe that's nothing special, it's rather common. Also that EMS and Fire drive Mercedes, BMW and Audi as well
Most of the mercs and Audis are fire officers
I can cope with the symmetrical flash pattern on the second prime mover but the uneven pattern on the first just upsets me.
A lot of the prime movers around the UK are starting to show their age now, all of them are due for replacement soon.
I noticed that too. Most annoying.
