John another great video. I love it when you have the audio with the video. You got some awesome shots. Congrats to the FDNY on their quick job as well. Bill
You put us right in the action again, my man. Great coverage. Think most people are like me. In our towns, cities, we can not get that close to a fire scene much less that close to the trucks. Here the police keep us at least 1/2 a block away. Glad you can get in there. Thanks for the ride.
Excellent coverage on this incident John, the fire involving the power poles is most unusual. The messenger wire carriers which appears to be burning normally carry communication services and are separated from the high voltage carriers ie Con Ed. It looks like an energized high voltage line has managed to make contact with the messenger wire circuits and looking for ground. .
Another great one John, when did you get the radio, it really puts more interest about the fire you do not normally hear, saves your voice, but your comments are still needed, hope to maybe see you sometime in July this year, be careful and keep up the great work, thanks John.
WELL, IT WOULD BE NICE TO MEET YOU HAROLD AND I GOT THE RADIO LAST YEAR FROM A FRIEND! I ONLY USE IN BIG FIRES SUCH AS THIS IF I HAVE IT ON ME! THANKS! ;o)
Again, superb coverage, JJ,! The wires burning, I wonder if that led to the fire in the first place. Will be interesting what the Fire Inspectors say. :o)
Every time I watch 1 of your videos I keep trying to peek around corners. I feel like a peeping tom sometimes. lol. This fire was crazy. I even jumped when it popped. I worry about you sometimes though getting so close. But that is why you have so many viewers. Great great work. We all get to see the things we would never ever get to see. Thank you for the amazing work you do.
Greetings, as I watch your videos, I was wondering if you have a special ID card you wear to get in where the firefighters are? You seem to be at the front lines. Keep up the great work, thanks.
Another outstanding video from the infamous master fire video buff JJ AKA Themajettirum1. Looks like you arrived shortly before Rescue 3 did. John, Isn't this the second multiple alarm storage unit fire in the Bronx within the past month? Or was this fire just a group of storage containers and tractor trailers burning outdoors with no fire extension to the building? I'm guessing that at 3:30 AM there weren't many PO's out in this area of the Bronx to establish a perimeter of fire lines to keep the civilians away.
YES, IT IS THE 2ND ONE OF IT'S KIND! THEY GOT THIS ONE QUICKLY KNOCKED DOWN TOO! THANK GOD! THEY ARE THINKING A CAR STARTED THIS ONE! THANKS SO MUCH MY FRIEND TOMMY! ;o)
Just wanted to say, great video John, but damn it man stay safe, there was shit cookin off in there and you were too damn close without being geared up. You don't have any idea what is burning in there, could be some toxic shit that will kill you if you get a whiff of it. Always be aware of where you are, don't get so lost in your lens that you put yourself in danger. Capture the scene, but PLEASE, don't become part of it by inadvertently becoming a live rescue for the members to deal with, cause you got too close and the fire got you!
Wow you really get right in there don't you... I would be scared to get so close lol. I'm disabled now, but I've always wanted to do independent reporting. Maybe if youtube was around when I was in my 20's I might have done it.
Yes first responders truly are heros. Around here they are all volunteer in these little towns. Not a day goes by that they aren't called for on the scanners. To put out fires, take people in ambulances and still work at daily jobs. They are called all days and nights of hours. I don't know how they do it, t they do
Anyone know why they didn't use foam on the containers? I'd have been afraid there was some chemical that might have been in there that would have interacted badly with water.
The cable on fire looks to be a Phone Cable. Might be a 100+ pair of 22-24 gage wire. An energized pair typically has 48-52vdc low current . The large rectangular boxes are cable splice enclosures. Could be a type of electrical cable but doesn’t look to be.
in regards to where u said one of the power lines came down and u missed it..actually no u got it right on film 55:46 is where it came down.....Those 2 kids running through a blocked off area was a very stupid thing to do. What if that transformer blew just as they were running by and got hurt?! Man stupid move for them.

INTERESTING INFO JOSEPH! THANKS SO MUCH MY FRIEND! ;o)
At 1:49 it looks like the ladder contacted the power line and dropped the feed onto the communications lines.
Dang son that was a big fire! Very good footage my friend!
THANKS!

COOL AND THANKS SO MUCH! ;o)
AWESOME CATCH MY FRIEND
THANKS SO MUCH! ;o)
Anyone know why they didn't use foam on the containers? I'd have been afraid there was some chemical that might have been in there that would have interacted badly with water.
I AM NOT SURE!
My boyfriend just said you got "balls deluxe"... whatever that means lol.
HEHEHE! I THINK HE MEANS I AM CRAZY TO GET THAT CLOSE! THANKS SO MUCH! ;o)
Looked like there was liquid fuel in this fire.
WELL, I AM NOT SURE BUT MAYBE! THANKS SO MUCH! ;o)
why do you always have a radio on you
I DON'T ALWAYS HAVE A RADIO ON ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The cable on fire looks to be a Phone Cable. Might be a 100+ pair of 22-24 gage wire. An energized pair typically has 48-52vdc low current . The large rectangular boxes are cable splice enclosures. Could be a type of electrical cable but doesn’t look to be.
COOL AND THANKS FOR THE INFO! ;o)
hope thay have a good journey home
THANKS SO MUCH! ;o)
Huh, cable tv wires, must be shorted to high voltage somewhere ?
WHAT????????????
Thanks, Keep up the good work !
THANKS SO MUCH MY FRIEND! ;o)
That crap is strong fire feed•storage unsafe?👁❗️
Where is the citys water supply? With all the large incidents, I can imagine the water levels are down some?
IT IS RIGHT THERE. THIS WAS JUST A DIFFICULT FIRE WITH CERTAIN CHEMICALS COMING FROM THE TRUCKS AND CARS IN THE LOT.
So whatever is in the mains is what they have?
THE HYDRANTS HAVE A UNLIMITED AMOUNT OF WATER HERE AS I KNOW IT.....
I wonder what kind of nasty stuff is on fire here...
WHO KNOWS! THANKS! ;o)
in regards to where u said one of the power lines came down and u missed it..actually no u got it right on film 55:46 is where it came down.....Those 2 kids running through a blocked off area was a very stupid thing to do. What if that transformer blew just as they were running by and got hurt?! Man stupid move for them.
YUP.....
IF THEY CAN'T WATER ON THIS FIRE CAN'T THEY USE CO2 INSTED OF WATER???
MAYBE BUT IDK....
you should get paid for this.
IT WOULD BE NICE! HEHEHE! THANKS SO MUCH MY FRIEND! ;o)
ooofta that got hot. ha
IT DID NOEL! THANKS SO MUCH MY FRIEND! ;o)
Joseph is either freezing or burning up for his loyal followers...
HEHEHE! THANKS SO MUCH MY FRIEND! ;o)
