Every Engine, Medic, truck, and Rescue can detect radiation. Post 911 they handed rad detectors out like crazy!
I got some bio terrorism detection equipment that came from a fire station
@@kaivargas815 ok
were going big boyz

As i coachbuilder for 13 years i can confirm these bespoke build are FRIGGIN expensive. The hours involved with designing and building these things is mindboggling. Those shutters are a PITA especially when the office staff order the wrong size shutters and you have already built the vehicle 😡 you then have to make the vehicle fit the shutters because havent got 6 weeks to wait for the replacement... bad times when paired with the bespoke shelving that pulls out on rails which needs altering to suit. We built a twin deck Firefighting unit as a curtainsider that could carry 8 IBC units that could be individually tapped into to the internal pipework for spraying all sorts of retardants for every type of fire it even had it own forklift (moffett) on the back. To this day ive never seen a forklift with a its own blue light on top of it since :D
For me as a former firefighter with dangerous goods training very interesting how it works in the USA. What I notice is that the chemical protection suits are almost the same in Germany and the USA. Difference: in Germany the boots are firmly attached to the suit.
I believe on full CBRN suits they are designed with airtight couplings
The suits are made by one company MIRA just make them different depending on customer preferences
Class B ensembles ftw
I hope you did that when it was a bit cooler out! I wouldn't want to be in that suit even for a minute today. Great to see a military brother doing good in retirement!
It looked like it was raining so it was most likely cool out
@@encryptedvortex that's even worse since they would have to dry everything out
@@canadiannavy9229 not worse, in every cases, everything would be soaked wet due to sweat
Thank you for showing all these emergency vehicles
Awesome! Thank you for your service.
It's a definitely a beautiful rig!
I have seen vehicles and equipment that I've seen before watching your videos. Thank you!
I loved this. Keep up the good work
Darn. I hoped the truck was nuclear powered. So sad.
Thanks for sharing i love this video well explained and nice compartment view and the suit all that this help me thanks❤❤❤❤❤
AMAZING BROTHER MIKE ! 🇺🇸
Another beautiful Pierce apparatus roaming the streets of America very nice truck overall thanks
Nice Hazmat Truck Mate!. It's a definitely a beautiful rig!.
It sure is!
Great video!! Nicely done.
Thats crazy mike!
i hope someday you get to check out there re-breather sets ...thay have there own type that includes a big ice block
two of the things i love about fire fighters ...first the thinking for every sanareo you can and second if theres an open square inch found in the truck then it will be filled with something usefull
Loving the creative spelling! :)
I did HAZWOPER response... Those suits are no joke hot. We wore Ice pack vests to keep from heat exposure here in the deep south.
I hear PA and im already glued. I live in this state and i actually had a few people who served in emergency services. My uncle is a Lehigh University cop, one of my grandparents on my dad's side that passed a while ago was the fire Chief for Northampton FD. Even i have a cousin in law that is the Chief of police for the town i live in. I've been thinking about doing volunteer emergency service stuff. I was thinking about either doing volunteer firefighting or volunteer EMS. I knew a few people that did volunteer firefighting.
I am joining EMS. It is a great place to work/volunteer.
Watching this brought back alot of memories for me. I was a Hazmat Specialist. We called class a suits easy bake suits. There's nothing worse than being decomtaminated.
Yeah I would think so.
Nice Hazmat Truck Mate!👍
Thanks 👍
Nobody else has said he looks sus in that Level A suit?
Liked and shared the video Mike, great video 🧑🏻👍🏻🚒
Thank you it is greatly appreciated
@@HeroesNextDoor No problem mate 🧑🏻👍🏻
Nice video
So weird hearing Peach Bottom, I live right by there and thats the first i've ever heard about it online!
Hunterdon County has Hazmat Team too in NJ they responded to cleaner dryer fire with fire department in Flemington NJ
So cool
Yes it is!
Awesome. 🤗🤗🤗🙏🙏🙏
yall should do monroe or stepney fire dept
the one thing that caught my eye was the chevy kodiak in the beginning xd
Is there any possibility that you can do the Hazleton fire department in Pennsylvania
YOU NEED TO TO COME TO CALIFORNIA
It’s interesting too see draeger sets being used in the US. Never really seen them in use outside of Europe.
we actually use them at my department as well
Are you referring to a Draeger CO2 scrubber/O2 generator (aka rebreathers)? If so I didn't see any in the video.
I did see some SCBA O2 tanks made by Draeger through.
SCBA has been in use in the US for almost seven decades.
Yes some departments are transitioning to rebreathers aka (co2 scrubber/O2 generator, Draeger).
@@creamysbrianna draeger SCBA sets. Never really seen them in the US before. They are the most common used BA set here in the U.K. and Europe
@itz_cam-ok1hq Thanks for the clarification. Here in the US, Draeger has become an industry buzzword for rebreathers and not just a brand.
Kind of how Klenex has become synonymous with facial tissue.
@@itz_cam-ok1hq I think FDNY had one for testing purposes. But I'm not completely sure
I hope Fame's rescue trailers are on the upcoming list.
Check out the day in the life or urban rescue. You can see it there
I was supprised that there is no decon equipment on board :o
Neat! ^^
Thanks! 😄
It’s all fun and games till the hazmats pull up
a lot of fire trucks can be up too 3 mil if fully custom.
Can you do a station rigs on the rest of the rigs Chester county hazmat has 34:08
what about vissiting an airpiort firestasion, and see what is diftent between a normal firestasion and that
What is a firestasion? Did you mean Fire Station?
13:13 "We have no hoes and no water...well...we do have water, but its drinking water"
Besides the obvious differences between this hazmat truck and the other one you did, were there any other differences? I mean like gear or stuff like that.
I think Lancaster’s hazmat had much more equipment and multiple vehicles
@@HeroesNextDoorok thank you.
Its Nukular!
makin me wanna be a firefighter
Do they have vesicant paint or vesicant painted things to detect gases
Yes
31:00 he looks like an amongus
And a couple of weeks later the truck was re-organized. Nothing is where it was during this video.
Why?
How do they access the radio and all the stuff they have on the inside of the suits if they need them such as the one you put on?
Listen to the video again they have a PTT button on their chest.
Pull your arm out of the glove and use your gear like normal.
@@creamysbrianna yeah yeah yeah, not what about panic buttons, the button on the SCBA, and other stuff as mentioned?
@@Comic_Saens yeah yeah yeah, not what about panic buttons, the button on the SCBA, and other stuff as mentioned? Also kinda hard to take your gloves off when it is attached plus as soon as bare skin is exposed you have to get out.
Stated in the video push to talk
does anyone know the intro song?
I'm not here at 3 am, you are
oh nah
But how do you take off your suit after its exposed to the radiation? Does anotherone who wore a suit helps you to take it off? or
do you spray something on the suit and then take it off?
I believe there is a liquid you can use with a brush and scrub the radiation particles off. I could be wrong though
There is a documentary abouth the Berlin fire department and they showed it as part of the academy portion where there are different zones and different processes are carried out.
This is the documentary of course it's in Germany so it may vary to the US

You decon it the back team will be the one to assist
I would like to recommend the Wichita fire department in Wichita ks
FIREMAN SAM NOOO-
Being in level A Suit sucks!
Better to have and not need, than to be without during an active event.
I can’t wait to see a nuclear medicine truck!
I did not know hazmat vehicles cost that much I get that they're expensive most emergency response vehicles are expensive also the UPS guy at the beginning half of the video just leaving this is driving away
So the SCBA pressure monitor is inside the suit - how does one check remaining air and whatnot without relying on guesswork? Or is it done by time?
It goes off
You mean an alarm that goes off? "Goes off" has so many different meanings, unfortunately.
@@awmperry once has one call a pass device and whenever the pressure goes low it vibrates
kitty litter 🤔
It's not 3 roentgen its 15000.
~ chief probably
What state is this “chester county” in
Pennsylvania
@@bradleysimpson9819 Thank you!
Brandywine region of southeastern PA.
30:25 if you can’t wear glasses while down range, how do visually impaired people do the job?
You can get a mask with an insert to hold your prescription of glasses or wear contacts. The nose piece can connect the glasses
You can wear them if needed
I have a question. Wouldn't they wear there other PPE when they wear the hazmat suit?
Typically, no. The entry suit is the PPE. Wouldn’t typically layer PPE. Station uniform is usually worn under a B or A suit. And in summer, the less the better under an A suit.
The class A suits are kinda like a space suit you could say no air in no air out with also means no heat can escape its a very very taxing piece of PPE
No only one ☝🏽 suit
Me: where do I sign up
36:25 You look like the Orange character from Among Us in that hazmat suit 😅
Great video. The music is a bit annoying though.
Copy that. Was it to loud? Or wrong choice ?
In places it was too loud. But where you were talking, in my opinion, there is no need for music. I want to hear you and your guest talking.
@@DennyReichard ok we will work on it. Thx for watch. This was my first edit solo. And I had a ton of music and sound issues to correct. That’s why it was late release.
Shesh what a fresh truck by the way im the 100th comment😂
Thank you so much for watching and commenting
Among us
1 mills like nothing lol
Did he say a “wench”?
Yep. It’s stocked with sandwiches.
Looks like you need to buff a big scratch out.
The guy at the ends pants are so tight that he'd have to unzip them to fart or some could get hurt
love that maga red. Thumb university
OMG $1,000,000. How many people would that feed. These fire depts need to be regulated at state level, the costs are killing the communities there supposed to protect. We need regional Fire Depts. and real I said real oversight and accountability….
Cost of vehicles continue to rise.
ah um um ah um ah ah ah ah ah ah um um um ah um ah um um um aaaaaaahhhhhhh um
Yeah I gotcha but it’s harder than you think to be put on the spot on film.
ive commented a year ago or so, i love this equipment its just a shame its at such cost became companies feel they have some right to charge this much for this. Military equipment is very similiar and it makes me mad, This should be much cheaper to departmants like this, no way this is a million+ when ive seen missiles cost less.
I’m probably the only Gen Z’er on the planet who can still read paper maps, and actually prefers them over GPS. Google maps can run out of service, and even physical GPS consoles can fail. Maps don’t have batteries that can die and don’t have to have a connection to a massive and complex system of satellites.
Title is clickbait its just a Hazmat team that also runs on a Nuclear Power plant
Sorry you feel that way. It is special because of the radiation detectors under the trucks. And is a first responder to both plants in the area
Hope those suits are charcoal suits...and their mask filters charcoal as well...or not going to help one bit. NBC isn't something you train for across the board, it is something that is fluid and has to be accounted for in various scenarios and containment levels. Whether it be Nuclear, Biological or Chemical....they all react very differently to the Human body and the environment.
Why the literal fuck though would you need 4 hazmat units though? Like don't get me wrong, I'm glad you have it, but lets be real.. fuck. imagine dropping 3 million towards something else. That first vehicle was all they needed lol
Train derailment, idk, how uncreative are you?
The audio mixing in this video is awful. Great video otherwise.
Yep I can agree. This was my first full video and I’m learning. Any tips would be helpful. My normal editors were unavailable
Many American fire fighting organizations don’t realize that whoever designs these trucks have the ability to make them smaller and simpler. Europe has smaller firefighter trucks and still provide the same level of response
Following what I have seen in Germany, the reason why they have smaller apparatus is since they have RoRo (roll on roll off container trucks/ swap body) trucks but it's true smaller apparatus can be used but in reality it's the preference of the department
you talk fast
fire your cameraman wtf lol
Lost me at the intro, boring af 😫 The idea has much potential to go viral but the vid is so poorly edited.
def not worth 1 mil
I'm disappointed in you, man. It's one thing to have click bait. It's another thing to straight up lie. I can't even recall a single instance of anyone even saying the words "nuclear" or "radiation"
The chief states it right in the beginning before we get inside. Sorry you missed it.
Marked at 3:41
Jesus saves
problem i have is, constellation security wont let them in right away and they would need to check the vehicle all around before anything even in an emergency no matter what.
Not a problem actually aka pre plans
This pretty neat. Always great to be prepared! ❤️🤍💙
That good old boy doesn't even have a clue of how to read a rad detector much less identify one.
