You don't have to learn from doing things obviously wrong. Agencies like UL and ISFSI should be allowed to force all USA departments to do what they say as they are 95% correct and 95% of USA departments ignore them for childish and irresponsible reasons.
I was a fireman for 15 years and an officer for 5. I would say pumper training is in order here. I don't know if these are volunteer departments or not it should not matter. As an officer if your men are having trouble getting water from your truck you need to take over and problem-solve
the people who commented about where you there I don't think they know the problem here. the truck driver engineer sure had a problem getting water to the nozzle. whether tis is a paid dept or volunteer, each man should be trained to know what his job is and the engineer should know that in the time it takes him to get hooked up that fireman on the nozzle will be ready for water and without hesitation charge that line. our dept trained for no lack of motion with out fault. if you were to hit a hydrant you charge as soon as you are connected and that engineer had better be ready with a clamp or hooked to the intake. that's where good training comes in

It depends on when the house was built, as to whether or not it had firewalls. For example, homes built in the 60's, weren't required to have firewalls, because of the way fire laws, rules, and regulations were back then.
All you have to do is add 5/8" drywall over the existing drywall, and make sure that there's no void space in the ceiling between the garage and house. Also a good fire rated door. That should give sufficient time to stop the fire from spreading into the house. Unless of course, you have a Pennsylvania Volunteer fire dept. that responds to your house...
@@ffjsb better to use a duble layer of 5/8 fireguard drywall it has a higher fire rating than regular 5/8 drywall. I do agree that the higher the fire rating for attached garages the better. Many of the materials used in todays construction if treated with Ammonium Phosphate would slow fire spread remarkably. Add the use of rockwool insulation and the fire resistance to structures will rise making it much harder for fire to spread.
Someone should make a bingo game for these videos of PA volley FFs. Some squares include uncharged lines, BCs on the hoseline, FFs in partial PPE, FFs without SCBA in smoke, dangerously overweight FFs, the list goes on and on.
In regards to fat firefighters, I look around in my volunteer department, and I see about 50% are chubby to obese. This is America. This is what we are. They are still able to do the tasks at hand. But you worry about a cardiac event
Water supply issues are not always the engineers fault. The other thing is under NFPA regulations the Engineer/Chauffeur/pump operator must qualify by completing the training required.
This is a great type case for needing to use a deck gun. That might not have knocked down a fire this intense but it would have bought them TIME. Time they needed to deal with the water pressure issues, or get an alternate water source. Contrary to the old line from Backdraft, you *can* have a bad day on this job and nobody dies.

4:20 when the dudes lid falls off and he gets back up and looks round for it 😂😂😂 comedy gold. What is it with fitefighters here in NA and their inability to utilize helmet straps? This would be funny to watch if it wasn’t so tragic for the homeowner.
Why didn't the primary hose go to extinguish the garage and the bulk of the fire? Afraid of "pushing the fire?" Tell me how that is going to make a difference in damage?
To all you "experts" complaining: You are correct, they may not have been doing everything 100% correct, but they are putting in the effort with what they have. A lot of these volunteer services are very underfunded and do as much training as they can afford to do and buy as much equipment as they can afford.

Likely more than that. There are two just in southwest Pennsylvania- Beaver County and Washington County (and they are side by side). This, however, was NEITHER of those.
Again, firefighters not trained on what to do with "big fire conditions". That should have been hit with the Deck Gun right away with the first engine. But these new firefighters are only taught at burn centers to pull a 1.75 line on everything.

I've been a Firefighter for over 30 years and I'm Retired and a lot of good and bad one thing that I never do is commented because I wasn't there. It looks like water supply problems
Lately there seems to be a growing number of house fires that start in garages. Today's vehicles have a lot of electrical and electronic components that present a significant fire risk even when the vehicles aren't running. More and more it seems that attacked garages and carports might not be such a good idea.
When I first saw this video a few weeks ago I thought it was my neighbor's house they look very similar. I bet that truck would start and run and drive out of there, as long as the wires to the fuel pump weren't melted, it is a Chevy and clearly it still had power because the horns going off.
The pump operators should be on their game at the highest level and get the water flowing fast. The officer with the barely flowing line is really bad. Nevertheless cudos to volunteers everywhere! Great video and interesting assortment of apparatus!
Looks like there is hydrant problems? Looks maybe a new pump operator. this video makes your dept look like they need more training on fire pumps. there is multiple engines there but only one has lines off it.
risk little to save little, risk much to save a lot. Structure and vehicles were fully involved on arrival. Exposure issues not a factor. end result fire was extinguished everyone went home safe, Former firefighter BVFRB where we had no deck guns (tax revenue limited).
"risk little to save little, risk much to save a lot." Do you have that tattooed on your chest? The HOUSE wasn't an issue??????????????? I don't think your town would want you bragging about where you were a fireplayer.
I see lots of these videos always using the phrase “heavy fire”. How do they know how much it weighs? Who weighs the fire? What if you have a fire on the space station? No gravity, so it couldn’t be heavy, could it?
Last thing, you Fellas need to do a ton of Drilling (training) There's never enough learning Fellas...it looks like ya had a few issues but got the job got done and as long as the fire eventually went out and all the Brother went home then its a good day! I'm not knocking or Monday morning Quarterbacking you guys, sometimes a job like this will teach you a ton in the future!! Just use this video as a future training session!! Oh one last thing lol...get rid of those damn automatic nozzles and run Straight Tips on your Atack lines, the difference is Insane!! Im not saying they don't have a place but not on a job like this !!
I mean woo. This was a disaster. Defiantly need some pump training and train using other equipment that you have on your rig. IE a deck gun would has darken the fire down a lot if not all of it. And i dont know why people run while on scene. Do you train to run while on a active scene?? the answer to that is no. Especially with a ladder. If there was a grade to give fire departments after each house fire. I would give this job a 3.5 out of 10

SCBAs, deck guns, and 2 1/2" lines were invented for a reason; use them! First arriving engine(s) must spot hydrants, lay in, and establish a water supply quickly. If not in a hydranted area, the first-in water tender(s) should nurse the first arriving engine(s). Next-due water tenders can set up porta-tanks to support ongoing operations. Big water quickly will limit fire growth and buy time to set up strategically placed handlines. IC should have coordinated a systematic sequence of tactics. These folks were running around without clear direction and coordination of efforts. I am a recently retired Blue Card certified instructor and have seen this circus scenario play out too often with improperly trained and practiced departments. I'm not saying these folks were not working hard and trying their best, but it is obvious they are in desperate need of training.
Your missing the point. Most attached garage fires also burn the house. I own a house with a detatched garage, henceforth if my garage ever did catch fire my HOUSE would not cat ch fire. 1+1=2
all firefighters around the world should not be standing still when there are fire they should be pumping water onto the fire and getting it out within minutes of a arriving up to fire
Let's see guy knocking out windows no o2, then drops helmet, guy standing feet from a burning truck no face protection and no water pressure, guys on roof wait till they are literally on top of the fire to properly gear up.....good lord who taught them to cut and pull shingles, lucky they didn't fall through. Forget being outta shape, how about proper saftey training at least...
If you outlaw the attached garage, then you have to outlaw the kitchen, and the bedroom, and HVAC/water heater room, because fires start in every single one of these rooms.
If the drywall is 2 hour rated and you have a good and responsible fire department, attached is fine. Based on that last part, detached garages should be the law.
How much time was wasted in getting water on this fire is inexcusable. Doesn't matter whether your career or volunteer we owe it to the public to perform and execute. Please learn from this and get your folks some training.
Why why why why why was that one ff standing on the roof of a burning house putting on his face mask and covering his head? Why why why why why WHY?????????
Thanks!

I'll never buys a house with an attached garage unless it has a first-class firewall between it and the house.

Train? Hell, I watched UA-cam!

SCBAs, deck guns, and 2 1/2" lines were invented for a reason; use them! First arriving engine(s) must spot hydrants, lay in, and establish a water supply quickly. If not in a hydranted area, the first-in water tender(s) should nurse the first arriving engine(s). Next-due water tenders can set up porta-tanks to support ongoing operations. Big water quickly will limit fire growth and buy time to set up strategically placed handlines. IC should have coordinated a systematic sequence of tactics. These folks were running around without clear direction and coordination of efforts. I am a recently retired Blue Card certified instructor and have seen this circus scenario play out too often with improperly trained and practiced departments. I'm not saying these folks were not working hard and trying their best, but it is obvious they are in desperate need of training.
Too many cut aways. Why not just post the video taken from start to finish.....
Your missing the point. Most attached garage fires also burn the house. I own a house with a detatched garage, henceforth if my garage ever did catch fire my HOUSE would not cat ch fire. 1+1=2
Wow no water. Call the national guard
all firefighters around the world should not be standing still when there are fire they should be pumping water onto the fire and getting it out within minutes of a arriving up to fire
Let's see guy knocking out windows no o2, then drops helmet, guy standing feet from a burning truck no face protection and no water pressure, guys on roof wait till they are literally on top of the fire to properly gear up.....good lord who taught them to cut and pull shingles, lucky they didn't fall through. Forget being outta shape, how about proper saftey training at least...
Worst part of this is they had to listen to that horn the whole time.
Sure looks like more training is needed. Lots of safety violations and poor scene command.
WATER. It's always water. Can anyone except FDNY ever figure this shit out??
Attached garages must, I repeat must not be allowed. This is the result.
If you outlaw the attached garage, then you have to outlaw the kitchen, and the bedroom, and HVAC/water heater room, because fires start in every single one of these rooms.
If the drywall is 2 hour rated and you have a good and responsible fire department, attached is fine. Based on that last part, detached garages should be the law.
Poor equipment. Poor execution. Chief was not on the ball
How much time was wasted in getting water on this fire is inexcusable. Doesn't matter whether your career or volunteer we owe it to the public to perform and execute. Please learn from this and get your folks some training.
Fire trucks carry tank water for a reason. Use it!!!!!!
This company hasn't lost a foundation yet

By the looks of this video the keystone cops would have had a better chance of saving the house
I can pee with more pressure then that line had
Deck gun
Im no firefighter, thank god its to embarrassing, but maybe spray some water on the fire? Seems to be alot of standing around.
Ttt❤
Two words " deck gun"
How sad that the operator cant get the correct pressure for that line.
Why why why why why was that one ff standing on the roof of a burning house putting on his face mask and covering his head? Why why why why why WHY?????????

Sad, get the bulldozer ready...
